CHAPTER 1
INSTALLATION
LOCATION
Locate the welder so that the operator will have sufficient room for handling and welding saw bands. Space should be
allowed so that the coiled band will not injure persons passing nearby. The welder should also be located so that the
welding sparks will not ignite flammable material.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (PORTABLE ONLY)
The welder must be connected to an electrical power line of sufficient capacity to provide for the instantaneous load
specified on the data plate. The welder should be fused according to the amperage on the data plate. Refer to the wiring
diagram supplied with the welder. The welder will not operate on direct current.
The welder may be installed on sawing machines. The location is convenient for welding bands to fit over two or three
band wheels of saw. Correct band length for the machine is stamped on a data plate attached to the rear of the machine
column.
