SELECT SUITABLE LOCATION
This power source should not be subjected to falling
water, nor should any parts of it be submerged in water.

pose a safety hazard. The best practice is to keep the
machine in a dry, sheltered area.
The bottom of machine must always be placed on a
firm, secure, level surface. There is a danger of the
machine toppling over if this precaution is not
taken.
Place the welder where clean cooling air can freely
circulate in through the back louvers and out through
the case sides. Water,dirt, dust or any foreign material
that can be drawn into the welder should be kept to a
minimum. Failure to observe these precautions can
result in excessive operating temperatures and
nuisance shutdowns.

machine away from radio
controlled machinery. Normal operation of the welder
may adversely affect the operation of RF controlled
equipment, which may result in bodily injury or damage
to the equipment.
