Two Core Trigger Switch: Activates the welding process, controlling wire feed and gas flow.
Main Cable Power: Carries welding current from the machine to the gun.
Gas Pipe: Delivers shielding gas to the weld puddle.
Wire Liner (.023-.035): Guides the welding wire from the feeder through the gun to the contact tip.
Contact Tip: Electrically connects to the welding wire and directs the current to the wire.
Nozzle: Directs the shielding gas to the weld area and protects the contact tip.

Setup Instructions

Ensure Power is OFF: Before connecting or disconnecting any components, ensure your Ozito MWR-135 Mig Welder is turned off and unplugged from the power source.
Connect Main Cable Power: Insert the main power connector of the MIG gun into the corresponding receptacle on your Ozito MWR-135 welder. Secure it firmly according to your welder's manual.
Connect Trigger Switch: Plug the two-core trigger switch cable into the designated control port on your welder.
Connect Gas Pipe: Attach the gas pipe to the gas outlet on your welder or gas regulator. Ensure a tight, leak-free connection.
Install Wire Liner: If not pre-installed, feed the appropriate wire liner (.023-.035) through the gun cable. Ensure it extends slightly beyond the gun's front end and is properly seated at the back connection.
Load Welding Wire: Follow your welder's instructions to load the welding wire through the wire feeder and into the gun's wire liner.
Install Contact Tip and Nozzle: Select the correct contact tip for your wire size (.030 tip is included for common use) and screw it firmly into the gun. Then, attach the nozzle over the contact tip.
Check Connections: Double-check all connections for security and proper seating before powering on the welder.

Operating Instructions

Once the MIG gun is properly set up and connected to your Ozito MWR-135 welder, you can begin welding. Always refer to your welder's specific operating manual for detailed instructions on power settings, wire speed, and gas flow.

Prepare Workpiece: Clean the workpiece thoroughly to remove rust, paint, oil, or other contaminants.
Ground Clamp: Attach the ground clamp securely to the workpiece or welding table, ensuring good electrical contact.
Power On: Turn on your Ozito MWR-135 Mig Welder.
Adjust Settings: Set the voltage, wire speed, and gas flow according to the material thickness and type of weld.
Purge Gas (Optional): Briefly press the trigger without touching the workpiece to purge air from the gas line.
Start Welding: Position the gun nozzle approximately 1/4 to 3/8 inch (6-10mm) from the workpiece. Press the trigger to initiate the arc and wire feed. Maintain a consistent travel speed and gun angle for optimal weld quality.
Release Trigger: Release the trigger to stop the welding process.
Cool Down: Allow the workpiece and gun components to cool before handling.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your MIG welder gun.

Clean Nozzle: Regularly remove spatter from the nozzle using spatter spray or a nozzle reamer. Excessive spatter can obstruct gas flow.
Inspect Contact Tip: Check the contact tip for wear, enlargement of the bore, or spatter buildup. Replace worn or damaged tips promptly to ensure good electrical contact and consistent wire feeding.
Check Wire Liner: Periodically inspect the wire liner for kinks, blockages, or wear. A damaged liner can cause erratic wire feeding. Replace the liner if necessary.
Inspect Cables: Examine the main power cable and trigger switch cable for any signs of damage, cuts, or fraying. Replace if damaged.
Gas System Check: Ensure all gas connections are tight and free of leaks.
