SAFETY SETUP BASIC WELDING GUN Note: If Welder is used too long, the amber Overload 90 AMP FLUX WIRE WELDER ITEM 61207 Indicator will light and the Welder Gun will shut off until the Welder cools. If this happens, rest the Gun on an electrically non-conductive, heat-resistant surface, ON MIN such as a concrete slab, well clear of the ground clamp. Wait about 8 -10 minutes with the Power Switch to ON for the Welder to cool. When the Welder OFF MAX can be used again, use shorter welding periods and longer rest periods to help prevent needless wear.
