SELECT SUITABLE LOCATION

Locate the welder in a dry location where there is free
circulation of clean air into the louvers in the back and
out the front of the unit. A location that minimizes the
amount of smoke and dirt drawn into the rear louvers
reduces the chance of dirt accumulation that can block
air passages and cause overheating.
STACKING
SP-170T's cannot be stacked.
TILTING
Each machine must be placed on a secure, level sur-
face, either directly or on the recommended cart. The
machine may topple over if this procedure is not fol-
lowed.
