Wire Feed Welders Recalled by Star Asia USA Due to Burn Hazard
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
The wire welder's torch does not have a cold contactor as erroneously stated on the packaging and instruction manual. Without this feature, the welder generates an electrical arc immediately upon contact with the welding material, posing a burn hazard to consumers.
What to do
Consumer should immediately stop using the wire welders and contact Star Asia to obtain a corrected instructions manual and packaging or for instructions on returning the product for a full refund.
