6 Unpacking & Installation Instructions
This section contains instructions for the unpacking, placement and installation of the Pro-
Wedge. Carefully review the following information, sub-sections and each procedure
before beginning unpacking and installation of the welder.
The Pro-Wedge comes complete in a sturdy, reusable, portable shipping/storage case. The
custom foam inserts protect the welder from damage during shipping and storage and
should always be left inside the case. When the welder is out of the case, make sure to
keep the lid closed to avoid dirt, dust, debris and/or water from getting inside. The welder
must be removed from the case and placed onto the work site for use. When not in use,
the Pro-Wedge should always be stored in the shipping/storage case to protect it from the
elements and potential damage.
Note: The welder illustrated in this manual shows ALL available features for the
Pro-Wedge, therefore, your welder may vary slightly in appearance from that
depicted.
