EQUIPMENT LIMITATIONS
The Demo Zone is intended for indoor display and
demonstration use. The Demo Zone is intended for
light duty operation. Because of the input power limita-
tion, power sources (except Ranger 250) may only be
used at maximum output with low duty cycles. (Refer
to Welder Operation-Duty Cycle section of this manu-
al).
The Demo zone is not intended for road transportation
or to be hauled on a trailer.
The Demo zone must not be lifted with gas cylinders
in place.
DESIGN FEATURES
PLATFORM COMMONALTIES
The Demo Zone utilizes standard power source and
wire feeder configurations. Output cables and torches
are modified in length for use with the Demo Zone.
OPERATIONAL CONTROLS AND
FEATURES OF THE DEMO ZONE
Refer to the individual Operator’s Manuals for equip-
ment included in the Demo Zone.
CIRCUIT BREAKER
The 230V input power to the Demo Zone is controlled
by a 40-amp circuit breaker located on the rear of the
Demo Zone.
REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS
The power source and wire feed equipment included
with the Demo Zone are individually listed or certified
to CSA or UL agencies.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
