IMPORTANT: These instructions contain information you require to prepare your machine for welding, together with a maintenance
and trouble shooting section. If you have no previous experience the instructions are not intended to show you how to become a welder . Should you
have
no experience, we recommend that you seek training from an expert source. MIG welding is relatively easy to perform, but does
require a steady hand and time practising under supervision with scrap metal as it is only with continued practice that you will achieve
the desired results.

asseMBlinG THe fronT CasTors:
(Refer to fig.1) The wheels are more easily assembled with the welder placed upside down on a
smooth non-abrasive surface. The welder should be turned over by at least two people as it is very heavy.

asseMBlinG THe BoTToM Panel & rear WHeels:
(Refer to fig.1)
4.2.1.
Place the bottom panel onto the underside of the main welder casing in the position indicated below so that the fixings on the bottom of the
main casing show within the holes punched through the bottom panel. The underside of the main casing extends beyond the
back of the casing by 5cm and has three threaded fixings within it. Align the 3 fixing holes across the width of the bottom panel with these
threaded fixings and insert an M8 x 16mm bolt into each hole together with a flat washer and a locking washer. leave finger tight.
4.2.2.
In the two returned flanges that lap over each side of the main casing are two holes which will align with threaded inserts in the sides of
the main casing. Into each hole insert an M5 x 25mm slotted bolt together with a flat washer and a locking washer. Tighten all four
fixings, then tighten the three bolts on the underside of the bottom panel.
4.2.3.
Slide a wheel onto each end of the axle followed by a washer. Pass a cotter pin through each free end of the axle and bend it over to retain
the wheels.
4.2.4.
With the assistance of another person turn the welder the right way up onto its wheels.
