important safety precautions, detailed engine
starting, operating and maintenance instructions,
and parts lists.

PRE-OPERATION INSTALLATION
EXHAUST SPARK ARRESTER
Some federal, state, or local laws may require that
engines be equipped with exhaust spark arresters
when they are operated in certain locations where
unarrested sparks may present a fire hazard. The
standard mufflers included with these welders do not
qualify as spark arresters. When required by local reg-
ulations, suitable spark arrester must be installed and
properly maintained.
Use of an incorrect arrester may lead to engine dam-
age or performance loss. Contact the engine manu-
facturer for specific recommendations.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
LOCATION / VENTILATION
Always operate the welder with the doors closed.
Leaving the doors open changes the designed air flow
and may cause overheating.
The welder should be located to provide an unrestrict-
ed flow of clean, cool air. Also, locate the welder so
that engine exhaust fumes are properly vented to an
outside area.
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.).
To prevent dangerous electric shock, other equipment
powered by this engine driven welder must:
• be grounded to the frame of the welder using a
grounded type plug,
or
• be double insulated.
When this welder is mounted on a truck or trailer, its
frame must be securely connected to the metal frame
of the vehicle. When this engine driven welder is con-
nected to premises wiring such as that in a home or
shop, its frame must be connected to the system earth
ground. See further connection instructions in the sec-
tion entitled “Standby Power Connections” as well as
the article on grounding in the latest U.S. National
Electrical Code and the local code.
In general, if the machine is to be grounded, it should
be connected with a #8 or larger copper wire to a solid
earth ground such as a metal water pipe going into
the ground for at least ten feet and having no insulat-
ed joints, or to the metal framework of a building
which has been effectively grounded. The U.S.
National Electrical Code lists a number of alternate
means of grounding electrical equipment. A machine
grounding stud marked with the symbol is provid-
ed on the front of the welder.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION
DO NOT MOUNT OVER COMBUSTIBLE SUR-
FACES.
Where there is a combustible surface directly under
stationary or fixed electrical equipment, the surface
shall be covered with a steel plate at least
.06”(1.6mm) thick, which shall extend not more than
5.90”(150mm) beyond the equipment on all sides.
