RANGER 305D

REMOTE CONTROL

The RANGER 305D is equipped with both a 6-pin and a 14-pin
Amphenol connector. The 6-pin connector is primarily used to
connect a remote control device, such as a K857, or a TIG Amptrol,
such as the K870 or K812. The 14-pin Amphenol connector is
primarily used to directly connect a wire feeder, TIG module, or Spool
Gun module control cable. See Accessories section for more
information.
NOTE: Both the 6-pin and 14-pin Amphenols share the same output
control auto-sensing and contactor circuitry; for this reason, there
can only be one device plugged into the Ranger 305D at any time.
Switch operation is covered in "Operation" section.

M CHINE GROUNDING
Because this portable engine driven welder creates its own power, it
is not necessary to connect its frame to an earth ground, unless the
machine is connected to premises wiring (home, shop, etc.)
To prevent dangerous electric shock, other equipment to which this
engine driven welder supplies power must:
• Be grounded to the frame of the welder using a grounded type
plug or be double insulated.
W RNING
Do not ground this machine to a pipe that carries explosive or
combustible material.
When this welder is mounted on a truck or trailer, its frame must be
electrically bonded to the metal frame of the vehicle. Use a #8 or
larger copper wire connected between the machine grounding stud
and the frame of the vehicle. When this engine driven welder is
connected to premises wiring such as that in a home or shop, its
frame must be connected to the system earth ground. See further
connection instructions in the section entitled "Standby Power
Connections" as well as the article on grounding in the latest
National Electrical Code and the local code.
Note: Different models appearance
may vary slightly.
