STORING
1. Store the machine in a cool, dry place when it is not in use.
Protect it from dust and dirt. Keep it where it can't be
accidentally damaged from construction activities, moving
vehicles, and other hazards.
2.
ENGINE OPERATION section manual for details on changing
oil.
3. Remove the battery, recharge it, and adjust the electrolyte
level. Store the battery in a dry, dark place.
STACKING
Air Vantage
®
566X Hydraulic machines cannot be stacked.
ANGLE OF OPERATION
To achieve optimum engine performance the Air Vantage
Hydraulic should be run in a level position. The maximum angle of
operation for the Deutz
engine is 30 degrees in all directions.
®
When operating the welder at an angle, provisions must be made
for checking and maintaining the oil level at the normal (FULL) oil
capacity. Also the effective fuel capacity will be slightly less than
LIFTING
The Air Vantage
566X Hydraulic weighs approximately 1974 lbs.

(896kg) with a full tank of fuel and 1800 lbs. (816kg) less fuel. A
lift bale is mounted to the machine and should always be used
when lifting the machine.
WARNING

HIGH TEMPERATURE OPERATION
At temperatures above 104°F (40°C), output voltage derating may
be necessary. For maximum output current ratings, derate welder
voltage rating 2 volts for every 21°F (10°C) above 104°F (40°C).
COLD WEATHER STARTING:
With a fully charged battery and OW40 oil, the engine should start
satisfactorily down to -20°F (-29C°). If the engine must be
frequently started at or below 0°F (-18°C), it may be desirable to
install cold-starting aides. For engines with common rail injection,
the mixing of petroleum or kerosene and adding of extra low
additives is not permissible. Fuels in accordance with ASTM S975
Grade 1D or DIN EN590-Arctic-Diesel may have no petroleum
added. Allow the engine to warm up before applying a load or
switching to high idle.
Under no conditions should ether or other
