OPERATnNG CONTROLS
The name "dual range" arc welder is derived from the fact
that your new arc welder is equipped with two separate
welding ranges,
The beginner or less-experienced welder will find the
30-140 amp range easier to use because it provides extra arc
stability when welding with some of the "more difficult to
weld with specialty rods" which are prone to pop-outs
The 40-230 amp range requires less line (input current)
draw for any given amp setting and permits the use of the
maximum amp settings with minimum effect on other'
electrical appliances, motors, and lights, on your electrical
system,
Either range may be used, depending on operator
preferences when the electrode diameter permits

NOTE: If you extend the welding cables beyond those
already supplied, they must be No= 4 AWG or larger to
avoid an undue drop in welding current Do not extend
cables over 50 feet,

complete the electrical circuit) or to the welding table itself
provided it is metallic or will conduct electricity!
