4.5 Installation Steps
4.5.1 Mounting the Stand (Integrated Welder on Base)
The base must be bolted to your workbench to prevent tipping or undesired movement.
Four mounting bolt holes are provided at the corners of the casting, and will accept your
3/8 inch or M10 cap screws. Use flat washers against the metal casting to prevent
gouging. Refer to Figure 4.6 Base Mounting Centers .
1. Ensure there are no overhead obstructions and that no pinch or rub points exist. Remember that
the welder is taller than the column when fully raised, and there are exposed connections
2. Mount the base to your workbench using four socket-head cap screws (customer provided, 3/8
inch (US bases) or M10 (metric bases)). Use flat washers against the metal casting to prevent
gouging. The use of nylon lock nuts with your cap screws is suggested, to reduce loosening due
to vibration and movement
3. Connect factory air to the air input on the rear of the Welder. Use a lockout device on the air line
if required
4. Verify the base/start switch control cable is properly connected to the back of Welder.
CAUTION Heavy Object
This product is heavy and can cause a pinching or crushing injury
during installation or adjustment. Keep clear of moving parts and do
not loosen clamps unless directed to do so.
CAUTION General Warning
You must secure the base to your work surface using four bolts, to
prevent tipping or undesired movement, in the event the welder is
moved off-center or rotated around the column.
