    Use caution as the electrolyte is a strong acid that can burn skin and damage eyes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This welder is shipped with the negative battery cable disconnected. Make sure that the Engine Switch is in the “STOP” position and attach the disconnected cable securely to the negative battery terminal before attempting to operate the machine.
  • Page 11: Angle Of Operation

    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 primarily for the purpose of minimizing cable voltage drop.
  • Page 12: Location And Ventilation

    Also, locate the welder so that engine exhaust fumes are properly vented to an outside area.
  • Page 13: Welder Operation

    WELDER OPERATION WELDER OUTPUT • Maximum Open Circuit Voltage at 3700 RPM is 80 Volts RMS. • Duty Cycle is the percentage of time the load is being applied in a 10 minute period. For example, a 60% duty cycle represents 6 minutes of load and 4 minutes of no load in a 10 minute period.
