SECTION 7 − OPERATING AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT
.
The welding generator provides power while welding and with the Amperage control in any position. However, under these conditions equipment
connected to the welding generator may be subject to larger than normal voltage fluctuations. It is recommended that only lamps be powered under
these conditions.

!
Use GFCI protection when operat-
ing auxiliary equipment. If unit
does not have GFCI receptacles,
use
GFCI-protected
cord. Do not use GFCI receptacle to
power life support equipment.
!
Unplug power cord before attempt-
ing to service accessories or tools.
.
Generator power decreases as weld
current increases.
Set Weld Output control to maximum
for full generator power output at AC
receptacles.

Combined output of all receptacles limited
to 4 kVA/kW rating of the generator (See
Section 12 − Generator Power Guide-
lines).
EXAMPLE: If 15 A is drawn from the 120
volt duplex receptacle, only 9 A is available
from the 240 V receptacle.
(120 V x 15 A) + (240 V x 9 A) = 4 kVA/KW.
