INSTALLATION OF FIELD INSTALLED OPTIONS

CASTER WHEELS (PART OF K1848-1)

Caster wheels, which are provided, can be installed by lifting the Demo Zone approximately eight inches above ground level. Use the mounting hardware sup- plied to fasten the caster wheel to the mounting plate. Tighten all fasteners.

INSTALLATION OF EQUIPMENT REQUIRED FOR RECOMMENDED PROCESSES

1.As shipped from the factory, two diagonal braces are bolted to either side of the Demo Zone. The braces are approximately 62" in length.

•Remove the brace on the tool box side of the Demo Zone

•Do not remove the brace located on the Ranger 250 side of the Demo Zone.

2.The Demo Zone is made for ease of set up. Drive rolls are installed and liners are in the guns.

3.A Harris Kit, containing gas components, is includ- ed with the Demo Zone. Some details about the kit:

•The double flow meter-regulator is for the argon gas cylinder. A "Y" fitting is also used on one of the flow meter outlets. The argon is fed to the Spool Gun, The Square Wave TIG 175 and the two-piece TIG torch attached to the Ranger 250.

•The other regulator is provided for the 75/25 argon/CO2 gas cylinder. Connect a "Y" fitting to this regulator. The Power MIG and LN25 is fed from the "Y" fitting. Use hoses with inert gas fittings. The short hose is used with the LN7.

•The oxygen fitting (with 1/4 inch pipe thread) is for use with the Pro-Cut gas hose. Use the short oxy- gen hose between the Pro-Cut and regulator.

4.Two plasma torches are provided with the Demo Zone. Use the short length plasma torch with the Demo Zone. The torch with the long length is not recommended because the length is inconvenient when used with the Demo Zone. Store the long plasma torch. Use the long torch if the Pro Cut is removed from the Demo Zone.

5.BEFORE the gas cylinders are installed, run the gun for the Power MIG from the back of the rack through the bench (under) and then up to the Power MIG. This gun will run along the back of the Square Wave TIG 175 and then to a gun holder. It should be long enough to reach the worktable and this helps keep the cables from getting tangled.

6.BEFORE the gas cylinders are installed, measure the cable length needed for the spool gun (it is rout- ed the same way as the Power MIG gun) and coil the rest, wire tie it and store it underneath the bench between the Ranger and Power MIG.

7.BEFORE the gas cylinders are installed, connect the battery in the Ranger 250.

8.Gas cylinder covers will improve the appearance of your unit. When used, put the covers on before installing the cylinder.

9.Place the cylinders in the Demo Zone. The cylin- ders can be installed by using the rear or side openings, or a combination of both.

When using the rear frame opening, move the upper and lower support bars out of way. Install the cylin- ders and replace the support bars to the closed position.

When using side frame opening, lift brace and swing out of the way. Install the cylinders and swing brace back into position, push brace down through locking tube to secure.

Place the air cylinder directly in back of the Pro Cut. Place the argon cylinder next to the air cylinder.

10.Install the optional casters. This is easily done after placing cylinders in Demo Zone, as the height of the Demo Zone is higher with the wheels installed.

11.Set up the two TIG torches provided. The TIG torch that comes with the SW175 is used on both AC and DC. A recommendation is to use a point at one end of the tungsten and a ball at the other end.

12.The welding table must exposed before demon- strating. Pull the table to the open position when in use. The table can be pushed back in, out of the way, when the table is not in use. Since the table has a bolted work lead permanently attached, no work clamp is necessary for welding or cutting operations.
