repairs performed on this equipment may result in danger to the technician or machine operator and will
invalidate your factory warranty. For your safety and to avoid electrical shock, please observe all safety
notes and precautions detailed throughout this manual. If for any reason you do not understand the test
procedures or are unable to perform the test/repairs safely, contact the Lincoln Electric Service Department
for electrical troubleshooting assistance before you proceed. Call 1-888-935-3877.
TEST DESCRIPTION
This test will determine if the Engine Alternator is functioning normally.
MATERIALS NEEDED
Volt/Ohmmeter
Wiring Diagram
TEST PROCEDURE
1.
Turn off the engine on the SAE-300 HE machine.
2.
Open the side covers and secure them with the hooks provided.
3.
Locate the engine alternator on the back left side of the engine. See Wiring Diagram.
4.
Using a volt/ohmmeter, perform the tests outlined below. See Wiring Diagram.
5.
Place the ‘Run/Stop’ switch into the ‘Stop’ position and test the following points:
• Chassis ground to the B+ terminal of the alternator (Lead #51), the meter should read battery
voltage.
• Chassis ground to the alternator flash/sense lead (Lead #59). The meter should read 0 volts.
6.
Place the ‘Run/Stop’ switch into the ‘Run’ position and test the following points:
• Chassis ground to the flash/sense lead (Lead #59), the meter should read 11.5 to 12.9 VDC during
first 30 seconds of operation (This time may be 60 seconds on some models).
7.
Start the engine and test the following points:
• Chassis ground to the B+ terminal of the alternator (Lead #51). The meter should read about 13.5
to 14.2 VDC.
• Chassis ground to the alternator flash/sense lead (Lead #59). The meter should read about 10
VDC.
8.
If the voltages are significantly different from those shown above, check the wiring connected to the
alternator for faulty connections or bad insulation. If the wiring is good, the alternator is probably
faulty and should be serviced or replaced be replaced.
9.
When testing is complete, close the side covers.
