increase the risk of injury, for example, by allowing
parallel welding current return paths, which may
damage the earth circuits of other equipment.
Further guidance is given in IEC/TS 620812
.
High Temperature Operation
At temperatures above 40°C, Welder output derating is
necessary. For maximum output ratings, derate the
welder output 2 volts for every 10°C above 40°C.
Towing
Use a recommended trailer for use with this equipment
for road, in-plant and yard towing by a vehicle
(1)
. If the
user adapts a non-Lincoln trailer, he must assume
responsibility that the method of attachment and usage
does not result in a safety hazard or damage the welding
equipment. Some of the factors to be considered are as
follows:
1. Design capacity of trailer vs. weight of Lincoln
equipment and likely additional attachments.
2. Proper support of, and attachment to, the base of the
welding equipment so there will be no undue stress to
the framework.
3. Proper placement of the equipment on the trailer to
insure stability side to side and front to back when
being moved and when standing by itself while being
operated or serviced.
4. Typical conditions of use, i.e., travel speed; roughness
of surface on which the trailer will be operated;
environmental conditions; like maintenance.
5. Conformance with federal, state and local laws

regarding specific requirements for use on public
highways.
Vehicle Mounting
WARNING
Improperly mounted concentrated loads may cause
unstable 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 compo-nents
such as suspension, axles and tires.
Mount equipment base to metal bed or frame of
vehicle.
Follow vehicle manufacturer’s instructions.
IT IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN TO DRAG THE MACHINE
MANUALLY OR TOW IT BY ANY VEHICLE
Pre-Operation Engine Service
Read the engine operating and maintenance instructions
supplied with this machine.
WARNING
Stop engine and allow to cool before fueling
Do not smoke when fueling.
Fill fuel tank at a moderate rate and do not over-fill.
Wipe up spilled fuel and allow fumes to clear before
starting engine.
Keep sparks and flame away from tank.
Oil
The OUTBACK 200 CE is shipped with the engine
crankcase filled. 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. Check the oil level every four hours of
running time during the first 50 running hours. Refer to the
engine Operator’s Manual for specific oil
recommendations and break-in information. The oil
change interval is dependent on the quality of the oil and
the operating environment. Refer to the Engine
Operator’s Manual for more details on the proper service
and maintenance intervals.
Fuel
PETROL FUEL ONLY-
.
WARNING
Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh fuel. The capacity of
the tank is 6,1 liters .
Engine Cooling System
WARNING
Air to cool the engine is drawn in the side and exhausted
through radiator & case back. It is important that the
intake and exhaust air is not restricted. Allow a
minimum clearance of 0.6m from the case back and
406mm from either side of the base to a vertical surface.
Spark Arrester
Local regulations may require that gasoline or diesel
engines be equipped with exhaust spark arresters when
they are operated in certain locations where unarrested
sparks may present a fire hazard. The standard muffler
included with this welder has a spark arrestor mounted to
the muffler outlet. This device also enables the machine to
conform to the sound power requirements of the
European Union and should not be removed unless of
cleaning. Please note: compliance to CE sound power is
achieved with spark arrestor installed.
WARNING
An incorrect spark arrestor may lead to damage to the
engine or adversely affect performance.
Electrical Connections
Machine Grounding
Because this portable engine driven welder creates its
own power, it is not necessary to connect its frame to an
earth ground, unless the machine is connected to
premises wiring (home, shop, etc.).
WARNING
To prevent dangerous electric shock, other equipment to
which this engine driven welder supplies power must:
Be grounded to the frame of the welder using a
grounded type plug or be double insulated.
Be double insulated.
Do not ground the machine to a pipe that carries
explosive or combustible material.
When this welder is mounted on a truck or trailer, its frame
must be electrically bonded to the metal frame of the
vehicle. When this engine driven welder is connected to
premises wiring such as that in a home or shop, its frame
must be connected to the system earth ground. See
