Section 6 − Operator Controls; Ampere Ranges Switch; Amperage & Voltage Adjustment Control; Engine Control Switch - Miller Electric CBI 801D Owner's Manual

A. Auxiliary Equipment Connections To Terminal
Strip 3T (Figure 4-2)
WARNING: Read and follow safety infor-
mation at beginning of entire Section 5-2
before proceeding.
Terminal strip 3T is provided to directly wire the auxiliary
power cord(s) into the unit. To make connections, pro-
ceed as follows:
1. Remove plug from auxiliary equipment cord(s), if
applicable.
2. Open and secure lower front door.

6-1. AMPERE RANGES SWITCH (Figure 6-1)
The Ampere Ranges switch provides two coarse am-
perage ranges. When in LOW OUTPUT, amperage
range is 100-350 amperes. When in HIGH OUTPUT,
amperage range is 300-800 amperes.
CAUTION: ARCING can damage switch
contacts.
Do not change the position of the Ampere
Ranges switch while welding or under load.
Arcing causes the contacts to become pitted
and eventually inoperative.

3. Locate three strain reliefs on lower front panel.
4. Insert leads from cord(s) through a strain relief.
5. Connect leads to terminal strip 3T using terminal
information provided in Figure 4-4.
6. Secure the cord(s) in the strain relief(s).
7. Close and secure door.
B. Protection
Circuit breaker CB1 protects the 120 volts ac auxiliary
power terminals from overload. See Section 9-3 for CB1
location and resetting procedure.

The AMPERAGE & VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT control
adjusts welding amperage within range selected by Am-
pere Ranges switch.The scale surrounding the control
is calibrated in percent and does not indicate an actual
amperage or voltage value.
IMPORTANT: The AMPERAGE & VOLTAGE AD-
JUSTMENT control may be adjusted while welding.
