Tools:

•

Allen key set.

1.

Assemble the transport unit according to the instructions delivered with it. With the T25MT cart, the welding
equipment securing bracket (*) is attached once the welding equipment is installed on the cart.

Transport units from left to right: P45MT, T25MT, P43MT.

2.

Move the unit on top of the cart so that the bar in the rear goes into the rear connection interface and lower the
front onto the front connection interface. Secure the power source from the front with the screws (2 x M5x12)
provided.

Do not attempt to move the power source with a hoist from its handle. The handle is meant for manual lifting only.
