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.
