to

You

Thank

We

know

you

dont

have

time

to

do

it

any

other

way.

Thats

why

when

Niels

Miller

first

started

building

arc

welders

in

1929,

he

made

sure

his

products

offered

long-lasting

value

and

superior

quality.

Like

you,

his

customers

couldnt

afford

anything

less.

Miller

products

had

to

be

more

than

the

best

they

could

be.

They

had

to

be

the

best

you

could

buy.

Today,

the

people

that

build

and

sell

Miller

products

continue

the

tradition.

Theyre

just

as

committed

to

providing

equipment

and

service

that

meets

the

high

standards

of

quality

and

value

established

in

1929.

This

Owners

Manual

is

designed

to

help

you

get

the

most

out

of

your

Miller

products.

Please

take

time

to

read

the

Safety

precautions.

They

will

help

you

protect

yourself

against

potential

hazards

on

the

worksite.

Weve

made

installation

and

operation

quick

and

easy.

With

Miller

you

can

count

on

years

of

reliable

theres

a

that

will

help

you

figure
