2.3 Rear Panel. Reference the following im-
age for guidance on rear panel setup and
function.
1. Air regulator/filter/water trap. To adjust
air pressue, pull up slightly on the control
knob on the top of the regulator until a click is
heard. Twist clockwise to increase pressure
or counter clockwise to decrease pressure.
Note: Do not exceed 80 psi. When installing
observe directional arrow for air flow. A step
down regulator at the tank is highly recom-
mended as well as a air dryer. A tank side air
filter/dryer will increase consumable life and
help keep moisture out of air lines.
2. Gas Inlet. This port is a dual pupose port
to provide the unit with either Argon or com-
pressed air. As configured in the picture, it
is set up for compressed air. To use Argon,
you must remove air line (5) and install the
line from the argon regulator. Alternately,
you may install a T-fitting with two shut off
valves at the inlet to eliminate the need to
change out the plumbing when switching
functions. Do not attempt to operate plasma
cutter with argon connected and do not
operate TIG with air pressure connected
unless a suitable shut-off mechanism is in
place and the lines have been sufficiently
purged.
3. High Frequency Ground. This unit pro-
vides a separate ground for the high fre-
quency to help control interference that high
frequency may cause. This ground must be
connected to a separate 12 gauge wire that is
grounded to a metal stake driven into the
ground. It is strongly recommended that you
connect this ground as prescribed. This will
also help prevent shock from the high fre-
quency while it is in operation. Temporary
operation of the unit without the ground may
lead to a High Frequency shock when touch-
ing the unit with bare skin while the high fre-
quency is in operation. If the unit must be op-
erated without HF ground, extreme care
must be taken. Do not operate this unit if you
have a pacemaker until you have consulted
your doctor due to HF interference.
4. Specifications and Serial number. Be-
cause product design and improvement is
continuous, the specifications on this panel
face overrides any specifications found in this
manual. Be sure to record the serial number
in this manual and on the Everlast website.
This will help track any problems and war-
ranty issues should they occur.
5. Air line. Secure the air line with the hose
clamps provided. Make sure the air line does
not bulge or have leaks in it. Occasionally,
stray sparks may burn a hole in the line.
Keep it checked for proper operating condi-
tion. If needed, source extra hose clamps
and tighten onto air line if air is leaking
around the connection.
6. Fan guard. Keep fan away from objects
that could block air flow. Keep away from
walls, and other objects a distance of at least
12 inches.
7. Power cord. The power cord must not be
kept in a strain or the unit pulled by the cord
at any time. Notice that you will have 3 wires
coming from the cord. You will see a green
wire. This is the ground connection. A white
wire and a black wire. These are your two
hot connections. Follow the wiring connec-
tion directions for your type of welding power
plug.
