INSTALLATION
ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL SHOULD
INSTALL, USE OR SERVICE THIS EQUIP-
MENT.
UNCRATING THE POWER MIG 350MP
Cut banding and lift off cardboard carton. Cut banding
holding the machine to the skid. Remove foam and
corrugated packing material. Untape accessories from

LOCATION
Locate the welder in a dry location where there is free
circulation of clean air into the louvers in the back and
out the front. A location that minimizes the amount of
smoke and dirt drawn into the rear louvers reduces
the chance of dirt accumulation that can block air pas-
sages and cause overheating.
