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 neces-
sary. Loose connections will result in overheating 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 primarily for the purpose of minimizing
cable voltage drop.
ANGLE OF OPERATION
Internal combustion engines are designed to run in a
level condition which is where the optimum perfor-
mance is achieved. The maximum angle of operation
for the engine is 15 degrees from horizontal in any
direction. If the engine is to be operated at an angle,
provisions must be made for checking and maintain-
ing the oil at the normal (FULL) oil capacity in the
crankcase in a level condition.
When operating at an angle, the effective fuel capacity
will be slightly less than the specified 12 Gal. (45 L).
LIFTING
The EAGLE™ 10,000 Plus weighs approximately
587lbs. (266.3kg) with a full tank of gasoline. A lift bail
is mounted to the machine and should always be used
when lifting the machine.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTION
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
At higher altitudes, Welder output de-rating may be
necessary. For maximum rating, de-rate the welder
output 3.5% for every 1000 ft. (305m) above 3000 ft.
(914m). If operation will consistently be at altitudes
above 5,000 ft. (1525m), a carburetor jet designed for
high altitudes should be installed. This will result in
better fuel economy, cleaner exhaust and longer
spark plug life. It will not give increased power.
Contact your local authorized engine service shop for
high altitude jet kits that are available from the engine
manufacturer.
Do not operate with a high altitude jet installed at
altitudes below 5000 ft. (1525m). This will result in
the engine running too lean and result in higher
engine operating temperatures which can shorten
engine life.

MUFFLER OUTLET PIPE
Using the clamp provided secure the outlet pipe to the
outlet tube with the pipe positioned such that it will
direct the exhaust in the desired direction. Tighten
using a 9/16” socket or wrench.
CAUTION
• Lift only with equipment of
adequate lifting capacity.
• Be sure machine is stable
when lifting.
• Do not lift this machine using
lift bail if it is equipped with a
heavy accessory such as trail-
er or gas cylinder.
FALLING
• Do not lift machine if lift bail is
EQUIPMENT can damaged.
cause injury. • Do not operate machine while
suspended from lift bail.
