Operation
Description
The Forney 210 MIG welder is designed for use on jobs involving maintenance and fabrication. It is
ideal for applications such as farming, automotive, and repairs. This transformer-based machine is
powered from 230V current and produces up to 210A output. The acceptable wire diameters for use
on this machine include .024", .030", and .035". The spool sizes compatible with this machine are
4" and 8" and should be loading clockwise, so the wire feeds from the top into the wire feeing system.
This machine can weld materials up to 3/8" in thickness.
Units may be used either with the standard torch (supplied with them) or with the Spool Gun.
Welder Controls
1. Main ON/OFF switch and welding voltage adjustment
2. Wire feed adjustment knob: To increase the wire speed, turn the potentiometer clockwise; to
decrease the wire speed, turn it counter-clockwise. The same procedure decreases the values
on the welding parameters. Turn knob slowly.
3. Overheating indicator (yellow): This LED blinks when unit is overheating. It will light up
when thermostatic protection shut down the machine and will cease blinking only after the
machine has cooled sufficiently to continue welding.
4. Ground Clamp
5. MIG Torch/Gun: Remove for spool gun change and disconnect gas and electrical connector.
Reconnect gas and electrical connector after change over.
6. 7-pin connector for connecting spool gun
