Insufficient Instructions

First, I'm not a welder. I'm a regular homeowner Joe who likes to play around with stuff around his house. I took several welding courses 30 years ago and wanted to get back into welding. I was looking for a DC flux cored wire welder and was pleased to find one for $99. The device seems solid enough, but the instructions are almost non-existent. I've attached a photo of the instructions. Photos are very small and blurry. Regardless, I was able to figure out how to route the wire, but it just wasn't feeding consistently. If the instructions were more detailed I might be able to get this to work. Instead, the coil of wire kept unwinding, which was extremely annoying. This machine might be perfect for an experienced welder, but for a curmudgeon like me, look elsewhere. I'm going to spend a little more and get a Harbor Freight DC machine.
