vehicle handling and tires or other components to fail.
• Only transport this Equipment on serviceable vehicles which
are rated and designed for such loads.
• Distribute, balance and secure loads so vehicle is stable
under conditions of use.
• Do not exceed maximum rated loads for components such as
suspension, axles and tires.
• Mount equipment base to metal bed or frame of vehicle.
• Follow vehicle manufacturer's instructions.

The EAGLE 10,000 is shipped with the engine
crankcase filled with SAE 10W-30 oil. Check the oil
level before starting the engine. If it is not up to the full
mark on the dip stick, add oil as required. Make certain
that the oil filler cap is tightened securely. Refer to the
engine Owner's Manual for specific oil recommenda-
tions.

This welder is shipped with the negative battery cable disconnected.
Make sure that the Engine Switch is in the "OFF" position and
attach the disconnected cable securely to the negative battery ter-
minal before attempting to operate the machine. If the battery is dis-
charged and does not have enough power to start the engine, see
the battery charging instructions in the Battery section.
NOTE: This machine is furnished with a wet charged battery; if
unused for several months, the battery may require a booster
charge. Be careful to charge the battery with the correct polarity.
WELDING OUTPUT CABLES
With the engine off, connect the electrode and work cables to the
studs provided. These connections should be checked periodically
and tightened if necessary. Loose connections will result in over-
heating of the output studs.
When welding at a considerable distance from the welder, be sure
you use ample size welding cables. Listed below are copper cable
sizes recommended for the rated current and duty cycle. Lengths
stipulated are the distance from the welder to work and back to the
welder again. Cable sizes are increased for greater lengths primari-
ly for the purpose of minimizing cable voltage drop.
