Anyone not extensively trained in welding and cutting practices should not attempt to weld or cut metal.
Safe practices are outlined in American National Standard Z49.1 entitled: SAFETY IN WELDING AND CUTTING. This pub-
lication and other guides to what you should learn before using this product are listed at the end of these safety instruc-
tions.
1.01 Arc Welding Hazard Symbols
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill
Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal
shocks or severe burns. The electrode and
work circuit are electrically live whenever
the output is on. DO NOT WORK ALONE!
The input power circuit and Power Source
internal circuits are also electrically live
when power is on. In semiautomatic or au-
tomatic wire welding, the wire, wire reel,
drive roll housing, and all metal parts touch-
ing the welding wire are electrically live. In-
correctly installed or improperly grounded
welding equipment is a hazard.
•Do not touch live electrical parts.
•Beware of electric shock from wiring.
•Keep all panels and covers securely in place.
•Wear dry, hole-free insulating gloves, and body protection.
•Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats or
covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work or
ground.
•Additional safety precautions are required when any of the following
electrically hazardous conditions are present:
--- In damp locations or while wearing wet clothing.
--- On metal structures such as floors, gratings, or scaffolds.
--- When in cramped positions such as sitting, kneeling, or lying.
--- When there is a high risk of unavoidable or accidental contact with
the workpiece or ground.
For these conditions, use the following equipment:
1) A semiautomatic DC constant voltage (wire) welder, or
2) A DC manual (stick) welder. In most situations a DC welder is rec-
ommended.
•Disconnect input power or stop engine before installing or servicing
this Product. Lockout/Tagout input power according to OSHA 29 CFR
1910.147.
•Properly install and ground this Power Source according to its User
Manual and national, state, and local codes.
•Use only well-maintained equipment. Repair or replace damaged parts
at once.
•Do not wrap cables around your body.
•Always verify the Input Power Cord ground −check and be sure that
Input Power Cord ground wire is properly connected to ground termi-
nal in disconnect box or that Input Power Cord plug is connected to a
properly grounded receptacle outlet.
•When making input connections, attach proper grounding conductor
first. DOUBLE - CHECK ALL CONNECTIONS.
•Keep all electrical Power Cords dry, free of oil and grease, and pro-
tected from hot metal, sparks, and sharp metal edges.
•Frequently inspect Input Power Cord and ground conductor for dam-
age or bare wiring. Replace immediately if damage, bare wiring can
kill.
•Turn off all equipment when not in use. Disconnect power to equip-
ment if it will be left unattended or out of service.
•Use fully insulated Torch. Never dip Torch in water to cool it or lay it
down on the ground or the work surface. Do not touch Torches con-
nected to two Power Sources at the same time or touch other people
with the Torch or electrode.
•Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, repaired or poorly spliced ca-
bles.
•Ground the work piece to a good electrical (earth) ground.
•Do not touch electrode while in contact with the work (ground) circuit.
•In confined spaces or damp locations, do not use a welder with AC
output unless it is equipped with a voltage reducer. Use equipment
with DC output.
•Wear a safety harness to prevent falling if working above floor level.
•Do not touch electrode holders connected to two Power Sources at the
same time as double open-circuit voltage will be present.
•Insulate work clamp when not connected to workpiece to prevent con-
tact with any metal object.
•Do not connect more than one electrode or work cable to any single
weld output terminal. Disconnect cable for process not in use.
•Use ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection when operating
auxiliary equipment in damp or wet locations.
FLYING METAL or DIRT can injure eyes
Welding, chipping, wire brushing, and grind-
ing cause sparks and flying metal.
•Welding slag can be thrown off welds as they
cool down.
•Wear approved safety glasses with side shields even under your weld-
ing helmet.
HOT PARTS can burn
Nozzles, contact tips, gas diffuser welded
parts, cut metal, or ground clamp can cause
burn bare skin when hot.
•Do not touch hot parts with bare skin.
•To handle hot parts, use proper tools and/or wear heavy, insulated
welding gloves and clothing to prevent burns.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
May 25, 2022 Page 6 User Manual No: OM-104A EN
ARC RAYS can injure eyes and burn skin
Arc rays from the welding process produce
intense heat and strong ultraviolet rays that
can burn eyes and skin.
•Wear approved safety glasses. Side shields rec-
ommended.
•Wear a welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of filter (see ANSI Z49.1
listed in Safety Standards) to protect your face and eyes when welding or
watching.
•Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash and glare;
warn others not to watch the arc.
•Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame-resistant material
(wool and leather) and foot protection.
NOISE can damage hearing
Noise from some processes can damage
hearing.
•Use approved ear plugs or earmuffs for high
noise levels environments.
FLYING SPARKS can injure
Flying sparks and hot metal can cause in-
jury. Chipping and grinding cause flying
metal.
•Wear proper body protection to protect skin.
•Wear approved face shield or safety goggles. Side shields are recom-
mended.
•Sparks can cause fire, remove all flammable materials within 35 ft (10.7
m) of the working zone.
EQUIPMENT OVERHEATING
Power Source casing, terminals, cables,
ground clamp, electrode stub or torch parts
can cause inquiry when overheated.
•Allow cooling period before touching MIG
Torch.
•Allow cooling period; follow rated duty cycle of MIG Torch.
•Reduce amperage and/or arc on time before starting to weld again.
•Do not block or filter air vent to Power Source.
BUILDUP OF GAS can injure or kill
Shielding GAS used for wire welding can
cause asphyxiation or death in confined
places.
•Shut off compressed shielding gas supply when
not in use.
•Always ventilate confined spaces or use approved air supplied respirator.
FUMES and GASES can be hazardous
FUMES and GASES can be hazardous to
your health. Welding produces fumes and
gases. Breathing these fumes and gases can
be hazardous to your health.
•Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes.
•If inside, ventilate the area and/or use local exhaust at the arc to remove
welding fumes and gases.
•If ventilation is poor, use an approved air-supplied respirator.
•Read the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) and the manufacturer’s
instruction for consumables, coatings, cleaners, consumables, coolants,
degreasers, fluxes, and metals.
•Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an
air-supplied respirator. Always have an observer trained in rescue and
emergency procedures to monitor the person in a confined space. Shield-
ing gases used for welding can displace air causing injury or death. Be
sure the breathing air is safe.
•Do not weld in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying opera-
tions. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapours to form highly
toxic and irritating gases.
•Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or cadmium
plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weld area, the area
is well ventilated, and if necessary, while wearing an air supplied respira-
tor. The coatings and any metals containing these elements can give off
toxic fumes if welded.
MOVING PARTS can cause injury
Moving parts, such as fans, drive gears, ro-
tating wire spools, rotors, and belts can cut
fingers and hands and catch loose clothing.
•Keep all doors, panels, covers, and guards
closed and securely in place.
•Switch OFF Power Source before installing or
connecting it.
•Keep hands, hair, loose clothing, and tools
away from moving parts.
•Have only suitably Trained and Qualified Tradesperson remove guards or
covers for maintenance and troubleshooting, as necessary.
•To prevent accidental starting during servicing, disconnect Power Source
from power receptacle or disconnect negative battery cable from battery.
•Reinstall panels or guards and close doors when servicing is finished and
before starting engine.
ELECTRIC and MAGNETIC FIELDS (EMF)
can affect Implanted Medical Devices
Consult your doctor and the Implanted
Medical Device manufacturer before going
near arc welding, spot welding, gouging or
plasma arc cutting.
•Wearers of Pacemakers and other Implanted Medical Devices should
keep away.
SHIELDING GAS CYLINDERS can explode
Shielding gas cylinders contain gas under
high pressure. If damaged, a cylinder can
explode. Since gas cylinders are normally
part of the welding process; be sure to treat
them carefully.
•Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat, mechanical
shocks, and arcs.
•Install and secure cylinder(s) in an upright position by chaining cylin-
der(s) to a stationary support or equipment cylinder rack to prevent falling
or tipping.
•Keep cylinders away from any welding or other electrical circuits.
•Never allow a welding electrode to touch any cylinder.
•Use only correct shielding gas cylinders, regulators, hoses, and fittings
designed for the specific application; maintain them and associated parts
in good condition.
•Turn face away from valve outlet when opening cylinder valve.
•Keep protective cap in place over valve except when cylinder is in use or
connected for use.
•Read and follow instructions on compressed gas cylinders, associated
equipment, and CGA publication P-1 listed in Safety Standards.
WELDING WIRE can cause injury
Welding wire can cause injuries to hands,
ears, eyes, etc.
•Do not depress Torch Trigger or commence
welding process until it is safe to do so.
•Do not point the end of the MIG Torch near any part of your body, other
people, or any metal when threading the welding wire thru the MIG Torch.

WELDING can cause fire or explosion
Sparks and spatter fly off from the welding arc.
The flying sparks and hot molten metal, weld spat-
ter, hot work piece and hot equipment can cause
fires and burns.
Welding on closed containers, such as tanks, drums, or pipes, can cause
them to blow up. Accidental contact of electrode or welding wire to metal
objects can cause sparks, overheating, fire, or explosion. Check that the
area is safe before doing any welding.
•Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal.
•Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable material.
•Remove all flammables within 35 ft (10.7 m) of the welding arc. If this
is not possible, tightly cover them with approved covers.
•Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can easily
go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas.
•Watch for fire and keep a fire extinguisher nearby.
•Be aware that welding on a ceiling, floor, bulkhead, or partition can
cause fire on the hidden side.
•Do not weld on containers that have held combustibles or on closed
containers such as tanks, drums, or pipes unless they are properly
prepared according to AWS F4.1 and AWS A6.0.
•Do not weld where the atmosphere contains flammable dust, gas, or
liquid vapours (gasoline for example).
•Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding area as practi-
cal to prevent welding amperage from travelling long, possibly un-
known paths and causing electric shock and fire hazards.
•Use only correct fuses or circuit breakers. Do not oversize or bypass
them.
•Cut off welding wire at contact tip when not in use.
•Wear body protection made from durable, flame−resistant material
(leather, heavy cotton, wool). Body protection includes oil-free cloth-
ing such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuff less trousers, high shoes,
and a cap.
•Remove any combustibles, such as butane lighter or matches, from
your person before doing any welding.
•After completion of work, inspect area to ensure it is free of sparks,
glowing embers, and flames.
•Follow requirements in OSHA 1910.252 (a) (2) (iv) and NFPA 51B for
hot work and have a fire watcher and extinguisher nearby.
•Read and understand the Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) and the manufac-
turer’s instructions for adhesives, coatings, cleaners, consumables,
coolants, degreasers, fluxes, and metals.

4.04 SPOOL TORCH: Install Welding Wire Spool Then Threading the Welding Wire
MODEL: QLBF-200 III
a) Disconnect Power to the MIG/MAG equipment.
b) Ensure the Drive Roll is marked with the same size as the Welding Wire you are
about to fit in the Spool Torch.
c) Lift the Spool Cover (4) by pressing Press Button (10).
d) Unscrew Nozzle (1), Contact Tip (2), and Locking Screw (3).
e) Put the Welding Wire Spool (5) on the Spool Shaft to check the Welding Wire
Spool (5) has some friction with the Spool Shaft. If no friction, then adjust the Hub
Tension Nut (6) so some friction is felt between the Welding Wire Spool (5) and the
Spool Shaft. Remove the Welding Wire Spool (5) from the Spool Shaft.
f) Rotate the Pressure Arm Bolt (8) clockwise to release the tension on the Pressure
Roll Bearing (11).
g) Take the Wire End from the top of the Welding Wire Spool (5).
CAUTION: Hold the Wire End tightly to stop it from unravelling.
h) Feed the Wire End into the Inlet Guide (7) then push the Welding Wire 75 mm (3
in.) out past the Swan Neck.
i) Secure the Welding Wire Spool (5) using Locking Screw (3) then screw the Pres-
sure Arm Bolt (8) counter clockwise to put some tension on the Wire End.
j) Flip the Spool Cover (4) over to cover the Welding Wire Spool (5), then fit the Con-
tact Tip (2), and Nozzle (1) on the Spool Torch.
k) Before you start welding, test the Pressure Arm force to the Drive Roll is sufficient to
feed the welding wire.
i. Connect MIG/MAG Spool Torch as per Section 4.03 then connect Power to the
MIG/MAG equipment.
ii. Point the Spool Torch at 60 degree and 100mm (4 in.) from a flat non-conductive
material, e.g. wood, on the floor.
iii. Depress Torch Trigger Switch (9) to feed Welding Wire on to a flat non-conduc-
tive material, e.g. wood.
iv. If Welding Wire slips on the Drive Roll (welding wire does not feed constantly
from Torch) then adjust Pressure Arm Bolt (8).
v. Rotate Pressure Arm Bolt (8) by:
- Rotating in a counter-clockwise direction reduces Pressure Arm force to the
Drive Roll. Reduced Pressure Arm force on the Drive Roll causes the Welding
Wire to slip on the Drive Roll and can produce an inconsistent welding.
- Clockwise direction increases the Pressure Arm force to the Drive Roll. Increased
Pressure Arm force on the Drive Roll can cause the Welding Wire to deform pro-
ducing metal fragments which clogs the Liner in the Swan Neck and can produce
poor wire feedability.
MODEL: QLBF-185
a) Disconnect Power to the MIG/MAG equipment.
b) Ensure the Drive Roll is marked with the same size as the Welding Wire you are
about to fit in the Spool Torch.
c) Unscrew Nozzle (1), Contact Tip (2), and Locking Screw (3) then remove Spool
Cover (4).
d) Put the Welding Wire Spool (5) on the Spool Shaft to check the Welding Wire
Spool (5) has some friction with the Spool Shaft. If no friction, then adjust the Hub

e.g. wood, on the floor.
iii. Depress Torch Trigger Switch (9) to feed Welding Wire on to the flat non-conductive ma-
terial, e.g. wood.
iv. If Welding Wire slips on the Drive Roll (Welding Wire does not feed constantly from
Torch) then adjust Pressure Arm Screw (8).
v. Adjust the Pressure Arm Screw (8) using a screwdriver:
- Rotating in a clockwise direction reduces Pressure Arm force to the Drive Roll. Reduced
Pressure Arm force on the Drive Roll causes the Welding Wire to slip on the Drive Roll
and can produce an inconsistent welding.
- Counter-clockwise direction increases Pressure Arm force to the Drive Roll. Increased
Pressure Arm force on the Drive Roll can cause the Welding Wire to deform producing
metal fragments which clogs the Liner in the Swan Neck and can produce poor wire feed-
ability.
