RANGER AIR 260MPX
®
AUXILIARY POWER OPERATION
When set to high idle, the output frequency is controlled from 57
to 63 Hz under steady state conditions. If the machine is set to
AUTO, the output frequency may drop to 40 Hz with a lower
voltage. Verify equipment connected to the Ranger Air is
compatible with the frequency and voltage.
install a plug-in surge suppressor on the receptacles feeding
the equipment.
The Lincoln Electric Company is not responsible for any damage
to electrical components improperly connected to this product.
OVERLOAD OPERATION
Never exceed the rated load when it is running continuously.
Before connecting and operating the Ranger, calculate the
electrical power (in Watts) required by the devices to be powered.
This electrical power rating is usually found on manufacturer's
plate on motors, appliances and power supplies. The sum total
power required by these devices should not exceed the nominal
power of the Ranger.
Most motors require more than their rated wattage for start-up.
Devices with large start-up power demands many not allow the
engine to reach normal operating rpm when the machine is set
to AUTO. Turn the OFF/AUTO/HIGH/START switch to HIGH.
In the event that the combined weld + auxiliary power load
exceeds the machine's capability, the welding circuit will
