SECTION 3
Precautionary measures should be
taken to provide maximum protec-
tion against electrical shock. Be
sure that all power is off by open-
ing the line (wall) disconnect switch
and unplug the power cord to the
unit when primary electrical con-
nections are made to the power
supply.
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL! Precau-
tionary measures should be taken
to provide maximum protection
against electric shock. Be sure that
all power is off by opening the line
(wall) disconnect switch and by un-
plugging the power cord to the unit
when connections are made inside
of the power source.

GENERAL

Proper installation can contribute materially to satisfactory and trouble-free op-
eration of the cutting outfit. Each step in this section should be studied carefully
and followed as closely as possible.
A. INSPECTION AND PLACEMENT
1. Having removed the shipping container, and before removing the skid, in-
spect for evidence of concealed damage which may not have been apparent
upon receipt of the unit. Notify the carrier of any defects or damage at once.
2. Check the container for any loose parts. Check air passages on rear panel of
cabinet for any packing materials that may obstruct air flow through the power
supply.
The ESP-150 Power Source is equipped with one lifting eye that enables
hoisting the unit. Be sure the lifting device has adequate capacity to lift the
unit safely. Refer to the SPECIFICATIONS for the unit weight.
3. Mount the components of the TR-21 Truck Kit to the unit as covered by Form
F-14-413 packed with the truck kit.
4. The machine components are maintained at proper operating temperatures
by forced air which is drawn through the front panel louvers and holes in the
base and out the rear panel by a heavy-duty fan. Locate this machine in an
open area where air can circulate freely through the openings.Leave at least
two feet of clearance between the unit and wall or other obstruction. The area
around the unit should be relatively free of dust, fumes and excessive heat.
(Installing or placing any type of filtering device will restrict the volume of
intake air, thereby subjecting the power source internal components to over-
heating. Use of any type of filter device voids the warranty.)
5. A source of clean, dry air that supplies a minimum of 250cfh (7.08 M
110psig) is required for the cutting operation. The air supply should not ex-
ceed 150psig (10.3 bars) - maximum inlet pressure rating of the filter regula-
tor supplied with the package.
