4. UNPACKING & CONTENTS
4.1
UNPACKING
Due to the weight of these welders it is a four man job to unpack them
and some form of mechanical lifting device may be required. Open the
carton and remove all the accessories and other loose items of packing.
We recommend cutting away one end of the carton so that the welder
can be wheeled out of the pack directly onto a hard concrete surface.

5. ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION
5.1.
WELDER ASSEMBLY
5.1.1 The welder comes with wheels and handles fully assembled.
5.2
CONNECT WELDER TO ThE MAINS POWER SUPPLY.
5.2.1 Before making any electrical connections, ensure that the mains
voltage and frequency of the supply matches the electrical specification
of the welder as stated on the welder's rating plate.
5.2.2 The welder must only be connected to a three phase power supply
with the neutral conductor connected to earth.
5.2.3 Refer to the section on electrical safety at the start of these instructions
for information on the correct connection of the mains power plug.
5.3.
CONNECT TORCh "Euro Connection".
Your welder is fitted with a "Euro Connection" quick release torch.
Line up the pins in the torch connector with the appropriate holes in
the socket on the front panel connector (fig.3), push in, engage and
tighten the locking nut (fig.4).
5.4
CONNECTING ThE WELDING CURRENT RETURN CABLE (fig.6).
5.4.1 The earthing clamp (fig.5) should be firmly attached to the piece being
welded ( or to a metal bench supporting it ), as close as possible to
the joint being made.
5.4.2 The quick connector at the other end of the cable will be connected to
the socket identified with a minus symbol ( - ) on the lower part of the
front panel.

enough to disturb the gas flow.

FIT A REEL OF WIRE. Ensure the welder is unplugged from the
mains power. The wire feed reel holder will accept reels of wire up to
15kg as shown in fig.15.
unscrew the reel retaining knob from the end of the rotating reel holder.
Push the reel of wire onto the holder ensuring that the spool is rotating
clockwise with the wire drawing off the top of the reel towards the
flexible wire guide on the wire drive unit. The larger spools of wire have
a 'moulded in' guide tube which must be located over the reel
engagement pin on the rotating reel holder flange (See fig.9 below). The
pin, in conjunction with the reel tension clutch adjuster will stop
heavy reels of wire from free wheeling on the reel holder. See also
'setting wire tension' in section 6.4.
