Keep it Clean: • Periodically wipe down the outer casing to remove dust, dirt, and debris. • Blow out internal dust using low-pressure compressed air (unplug first). 2. Inspect Cables Regularly: • Check the electrode and ground cables for cracks, splits, or fraying. Replace if damaged. • Ensure the connectors are tight and corrosion-free. 3. Check the Plug and Power Cord: • Make sure the power cord and plug are not damaged or overheating. 4. Don’t Switch While Welding: • As indicated on the machine, never change the amperage dial while welding—only adjust when the unit is idle. 5. Store Properly: • Keep the welder in a dry, dust-free environment to avoid moisture and rust. 6. Test Before Long Projects: • If it hasn’t been used in a while, run a few test beads before jumping into a major job. 7. Follow Duty Cycle: • The AC-225 has a 20% duty cycle at maximum output (225A). This means you should weld for no more than 2 minutes continuously, followed by an 8-minute rest to avoid overheating. Price $250
