

This tool must be connected to a

properly grounded outlet installed

in accordance with all local codes

and ordinances. Never remove the

grounding prong or modify the plug

in any way. Do not use adapter

plugs. Consult an electrician if you

are in any doubt as to whether the

plug is properly grounded. Avoid

bodily contact with grounded

surfaces.



Always wear proper personal

protection when operating welder.

A full face shield per ANSI Z87.1-

2003 standard is required at all times

to protect face and eyes against

injury from flying parts. Adequate

gloves and clothing are required to

reduce the risk of burns. Allow parts

to cool before handling.

Do not operate tool in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the

presence of flammable liquids,

gases or dust. Welders create

sparks which may ignite dust or

fumes. Use in well ventilated areas

only. Welders generate heat which

can ignite surrounding materials

causing fires.

APPLICATION

The Motor Guard Magna StitcherTM Plastic Repair System can be used to perform structural repair of

many plastic parts. The MS-2500 works by welding a rigid stainless steel stake into the surface of the

plastic resulting in a permanent repair of the crack. Repairs can be made on flat surfaces, tabs,

holes, ribs, inside and outside corners.

The Magna StitcherTM System can be used to repair Bumpers, Fascias, Spoilers, Headlamp Brackets,

Radiator Brackets, Interior Components, Underbody Structures, Wheel Wells, Panel Mounting Tabs

and any thermoplastic part. This economical tool can also be used for quick, on-the-vehicle repairs

such as mounting tabs, underbody components and other out-of-sight components. Simply stitch and

go!

IMPORTANT: Read and understand all warnings and instructions prior to use.

PREPARING MAGNA-STITCHER SYSTEM FOR USE

Connect the unit to an approved power supply, paying careful attention to the safety instructions on

the previous page. If an extension cord is needed, it must be a three-wire, grounded cord of the

proper amperage. This unit is designed for indoor use only in a clean, dry environment.

Turn the unit on by switching the main Power Switch (1) to the On position. Select a power level by

rotating the Level Knob (2) to one of the three power positions:

Low Setting

(Green LED)

For thin sections and detailed work

Medium Setting

(Yellow LED)

For general repairs

High Setting

(Red LED)

For thicker sections and heavy work

The Work Lamp (4) will illuminate in any of the three power positions and will remain on whether the

Trigger Button (3) is depressed or not. To prevent eye damage, do not stare directly into the

light beam and do not point the light directly at others.

Choose proper stake type according to area to be repaired (see table on back page).

PREPARATION OF WORK AREA

Prepare area to be repaired by removing all dirt, oil and dust. Repairs are generally made on the

inside surface of the panel. Removable foil tape may be used on the outer surface to hold the

position while stitching.

GENERAL REPAIR PROCEDURE WITH MAGNA STAKES

Insert stake into Electrodes (5) as shown in Figure 2. Three positions are

available to insert stakes at different angles.

Place stake against surface to be repaired while applying moderate

pressure. Depress the Trigger Button (3) to heat the stake.

While continuing to apply pressure, allow the stake to sink halfway

through the thickness of the work piece. After stake is inserted to proper

depth, twist the stake slightly to allow it to lock into the panel.

Allow the stake to cool for 2 or 3 seconds before removing tool. Trim

exposed ends of stake using wire cutters (Figure 3). Take care while

trimming stakes as flying pieces can cause injury to operator or

bystanders. Eye protection should be worn at all times (See Safety

Instructions).

Complete cosmetic repair on front of panel as needed.

REPAIR OF FLAT AREAS

Prepare area to be repaired per instructions above. Insert an S-Shaped

Magna-StakeTM into the electrodes.

Set stake across crack as shown in Figure 4. Insert stake per instructions above, halfway through

panel thickness, and give stake a slight twist before allowing to cool. Space stakes on 1/2 to 3/4 inch

intervals or as needed for strength.

Trim stake ends and complete repair on front of panel as needed (See Safety Instructions).

REPAIR OF TABS AND THIN SECTIONS

Prepare area to be repaired per instructions above. Insert an M-Shaped

Magna-StakeTM into the electrodes.

Set stake across crack as shown in Figure 5. Insert stake per instructions

above, halfway through panel thickness, and add additional stakes as

needed for strength.

Trim stake ends and complete repair on front of panel as needed (See

Safety Instructions).

REPAIR OF INSIDE CORNERS

Prepare area to be repaired per instructions above. Insert a V-Shaped

Magna-StakeTM (MS2006) into the electrodes.

Set stake across crack as shown in Figure 6. Insert stake per

instructions above, halfway through panel thickness, and give stake a

slight twist before allowing to cool. Space stakes on 1/2 to 3/4 inch intervals or as needed for

strength.

Trim stake ends and complete repair on front of panel as needed (See Safety Instructions).

REPAIR OF OUTSIDE CORNERS

Prepare area to be repaired per instructions above. Insert a W-Shaped

Magna-StakeTM (MS2007) into the electrodes.

Set stake across crack as shown in Figure 7. Insert stake per

instructions above, halfway through panel thickness, and give stake a

slight twist before allowing to cool. Space stakes on 1/2 to 3/4 inch

intervals or as needed for strength.

SURFACE REPAIR WITH IRONING TIP

Ironing tip may be used to smooth rough areas and build up low areas

prior to final repair. Insert Magna-StitcherTM Ironing Tip (MS2045) into the

electrodes as shown in Fig. 8.

Depress Trigger Button (3) to heat the tip.Apply moderate pressure and a

slight rotary motion, allowing the spring-like tip to roll over the area to be

repaired.

Continue until damaged area is smooth and complete repair using

conventional methods.
