OVERVIEW

Don't Fry Your Switches

We've all seen it happen—someone is in a rush and flips the amperage range or polarity switch while they are still burning a rod. It sounds like a gunshot, and it's a quick way to kill a good welder. The Miller 196073 "DO NOT SWITCH WHILE WELDING" label is your first line of defense against that kind of damage. It serves as a constant reminder to every operator on the floor to break the arc before changing settings.

If your machine's original stickers are faded, scratched off, or painted over, it's time to freshen them up. Not only does it make your rig look professional and well-maintained, but it also helps train new guys on the proper way to treat the equipment. This is a genuine Miller part, so you know it fits right and sticks tight. Don't let a missing $5 sticker turn into a $500 switch repair. Slap this decal on and keep your machine running smooth.

  • Clear Warning: bold text prevents rookie mistakes.
  • OEM Quality: The same label that came from the factory.
  • Easy Fix: Peel and stick installation.
