GENERAL These rules apply to ac and dc welding generators, ac trans- former and ac/dc welding machines, and de transformer recti- fier welding machines. In arc-welding operations, where electrically energized parts are exposed, observe the following safety rules to insure max- imum personal safety and protect nearby persons, Failure to observe these safety precautions may expose not only you, but fellow workers as well, to serious injuries, Once these rules are learned and kept in mind, proceed with maxi- Mum assurance. 1-2. WELDING CABLES DON'T overload cables, (Figure 1-1) Figure 1-1. Don't overload cables NEVER use welding cables at currents in excess of their rated capacity. It will cause overheating and rapid deterioration of the insulation. It is also uneconomical. DON'T use worn or poorly connected cables, {Figure 1-2) Figure 1-2. Don’t use worn or poorly connected cables Inspect the cables frequently. Immediately repair all breaks in the insulation with rubber and friction tapes. Tighten all cable connections and adequately insulate any joints where a connector may have an exposed conductive part. In addition to the potential hazard to life, a hazard occurs when exposed sections of cable come in contact with grounded metalic objects, causing an arc. Unprotected eyes may be injured and fire may result if combustible materials such as oil or grease are in the vicinity. The efficiency and quality of welding will be improved by elimination of these dangerous grounds, and by keeping connections tight. . ELECTRODE HOLDER DON'T use electrode holders with defective jaws. (Figure 1-3) Keep the jaws of the electrode hoider tight and the gripping surfaces in good condition to provide close contact with the electrodes. Defective jaws will permit the glectrode to wob- ble, making control of the welding operations difficult. Figure 1-3. Don’t use Electrode Holder with defective jaws DON'T use electrode holder with loose cable connections. Keep the connections of the electrode lead to the holder tight at all times. Use only fully insulated electrode holders {and without pro- truding screwheads.) Never touch two electrode holders from two separate welding machines at the same time. . CODE CONFORMANCE The machine and its equipment must be installed and main- tained in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local requirements. PARALLEL CONNECTIONS See diagrams in the instruction manual applying to the weld- ing machine.used. . POWER DISCONNECT SWITCH if the welding machine does not include a power disconnect switch, install one at or near the machine, . POLARITY SWITCH DON'T operate the polarity switch under load. The polarity switch {when supplied} is provided for changing the electrode lead from positive {reverse polarity) to negative (straight polarity}. Never move it while under the load of a welding current. Operate this switch only while the machine is idling and the welding circuit is open. The potential dan- gers of opening the circuit while carrying high current are: 1. An arc will form between the contact surfaces of the switch and severely burn them, 2. The person throwing the switch may receive a severe burn from this arcing. . RANGE SWITCH DON'T operate the range switch under load. The range switch (when supplied) is provided for obtaining required current settings. |t must never be operated while the machine is under the load of welding current. Operate the range switch only while the machine is idling and the welding circuit is open. The potential danger of switching the circuit while carrying high current is the formation of an arc be- tween the contact surface which will severely burn them, Repeated occurrences of this arcing wiil eventually prevent operation of the contacts. . EXHAUST GASES DON’T use gas engine units in confined spaces without vent- ing the exhaust gases. (Figure 1-4) if gasoline or other fuel driven welding machines are operated indoors, provide means to pipe the exhaust gases to the out- side air to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning. OM-450 Page 1 1-10. Figure 1-4. Vent exhaust gases POWER CIRCUIT GROUND DON'T use welding machine without grounding frame or case, (Figure 1-5) Figure 1-5. Ground frame or case Ground the ground cable of every power circuit to prevent accidental shock by stray current. The potential danger 1s that development of a stray current may give a fatal shock should a person, for example, place one hand on the welding machine and the other on the switch box, or other grounded equipment. Do not ground to pipelines carrying gases or flamrnable liquids and conduits carrying electrical conduc- tors. Be sure conductors can safely carry the ground current. When connecting the welding machine, properly ground the machine frame or case. 1-11. CONTAINERS WHICH HELD COMBUSTIBLES Page 2 DON'T weld on containers which have held combustible or flammable materials or materials which, when heated, give off flammable or toxic vapors without proper cleaning, purg- ing, or inerting. Welding containers which have hetd flammable or combust- ibie materials may be extremely dangerous. To prevent a fire or explosion of the container, follow the recommendations of the American Welding Saciety Pamphlet A6.0 “Welding or Cutting Containers Which Have Held Compbustibies”. DONT depend on your eyes or nose to decide if 1t is safe to weld on a closed container. Find out what was in the container or use an explosimeter. A very small amount of residual flammable gas or tiquid can cause a serious explosion. NEVER use oxygen to ventilate a container. When you know the container held a gas or liquid which will readily dissolve in water: 1. Flush out with water several times and then fill with water as far as work permits, positioning container to permit introduction of as much water as possible. 2. Before welding be sure there is a vent or opening to рго- vide for release of air pressure. 1-12 1-13. 1-14. When you know the container held a gas or liquid which wil not readily dissolve in water: 1. Clean out thouroughly with steam or a cleansing agent and purge alt air or inert with a gas such as carbon dioxide or nitrogen before repairing. Carbon dioxide is heavier than air and will tend to remain in the container if the opening is at the top. 2. Use steam to clean out light material, 3. Use a strong caustic soda solution to clean out heavy oils ог grease. 4. Be sure to purge ali air or inert with a gas, such as nitro- gen or carbon dioxide, no matter how well you have cleaned. There may still be traces of oil, grease, or other readily oxidizable material under the seams. Be careful when cleaning with steam or caustic soda wear goggles and gloves. DON'T clean where there is poor ventilation. Ventilation is necessary to carry away harmful or explosive vapors. DON T clean where there are open flames. When scraping or hammering to remove heavy sludge or scale, use a spark resistive too! and keep it wet to avoid sparks. Keep your head and arms as far away from your work as possible. HOLLOW CASTINGS DONT weld on hollow {cored) castings that have not been properly vented. The casting may explode. {Figure 1-6) Figure 1-6. Don’t weld on hollow {cored} castings EXPLOSION HAZARDS NEVER weld in or near explosive atmospheres. Such atmos- pheres can be created by flammable gas leaks or by vapors from flammable liquids (gasoline, alcohol, etc.) or by com- bustible dusts. VENTILATION DON'T weld in confined spaces without adequate ventilation. When welding in confined spaces, provide ventilation in accordance with United States of American Standard 249.1, 1967. Always provide adequate ventilation by blowers, air lines, or other acceptable means. Never use compressed ox- ygen. The depletion of the oxygen suppiy, the heat of weld- ing, and the fumes given off may cause severe discomfort or a serious iilness. When toxic fumes from lead or cadmium bearing materials or any other substances are present in harmful concentrations, always use an air supplied respirator. 1-15. SOLVENTS 1-17. Do not weld where chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors from de- greasing, cleaning, or spraying may reach or be drawn into air surrounding the welding operation. The heat of the arc can decompose solvent vapors to form phosgene, a highly toxic gas and other irritating decomposition products. Do not weld where ultraviolet light from the electric arc can penetrate air containing even minute amounts of vapors from solvents such as trichloroethylene or perchioroethyiene. Ul- traviolet light can decompose the vapors to form phosgene, a highly toxic gas and other irritating products. . FIRE HAZARDS DON'T weld near flammable or combustible materials. Fires can be caused by the arc, by contact with the heated metal, by slag, or sparks. Keep combustibles at least 35 feet from the arc or suitably protected. If welding must be done in a particular area, move the combustibles away. If they cannot be moved, cover them completely with fire resistive screens, Cover cracks or openings in floors or walls; sweep floor free of combustibles and wet down, if wood, being sure welder wears insulation shoe coverings. Avoid welding on par- tition walls in contact with combustibles. Heated metal on the other side of partition wall being welded upon can ignite combustibles in contact with the partition. Where other than a minor fire might develop, have a fire watcher stand-by with suitable fire extinguishing equipment for at least one-half hour after the welding is completed. ELECTRICAL SHOCK-VOLTAGE OPEN power circuits before checking machines. Before working on the wiring, switches, controls, etc, open the power line disconnect switch. fn most welding shops the power supply used for arc welding machines is 230 or 460 volts. Open circuit voltages are usualiy less than 100 volts and welding or arc voltage drops are still lower. However, all of these voltages are capable of developing a harmful or fatal current to the body. DON'T touch electrically "hot" parts. NEVER touch any exposed or non-insulated part of the cables, cable connectors, clamps, electrode holders, elec- trodes, or the power supply equipment to prevent harmful or fatal electric shock or burns. . ELECTRICAL SHOCK-DAMPNESS NEVER work in a damp area without suitable insulation a- gainst shock, Keep hands, feet, and clothing dry at all times. To prevent harmful body shocks, keep hands, feet and cloth- ing dry. Never stand or tie in puddles of water, damp ground, or against grounded metal when welding without suitable in- sulation against shock. Always find a dry board or rubber mat to stand on when water, moisture, or perspiration cannot be avoided. Dampness between the body and an energized or grounded metallic part lowers the resistance to the passage of current to the body which may produce a harmful or fatal shock. Salt in perspiration or sea water dangerously lowers contact resistances. Figure 1-7. Don’t leave electrode in contact with grounded metallic surface, 1-19. STARTING UNDER LOAD DON'T leave an uninsulated electrode holder, or a “live” 1-20, 1-21. electrode on the table top or in contact with a grounded metallic surface. (Figure 1-7) When it is not in use, never place an electrode holder in contact with the tabletop or other metalic surface in contact with welding ground. Provide an insulated hook or holder for the electrode holder. À potential danger is that a holder in contact with the ground circuit provides a dead short circuit on the welding machine, If the machine should be started up, this short circuit would cause an excessive load on the ma- chine and may damage the insulation. FACE PROTECTION DON'T use cracked or defective helmets or shields, Keep the helmet, hand shields, or face shield in good condi- tion. If cracks occur in the fibre material, replace the shield, since the leakage of arc rays may cause serious burns. EYE PROTECTION NEVER under any circumstances, look at an_eiectric arc without eye protection. Make sure that flash goggles are used under the weld- ing helmet at all times, particularly while gas shielded- arc welding. In some type of arc welding, such as gas shieided-arc welding, ultra-violet and infra-red radiation from the arc is particularly intense and requires constant attention to avoid arc flashes to the welder when striking an arc and to avoid exposure to other welders. NEVER strike an arc without ascertaining that nearby per- sons either have the necessary protective equipment or are looking in the opposite direction. For welding operations in open areas, provide portabie, non- reflecting screens to shield persons nearby from the rays of the arc. Eye burns from the arc, through not generally per- manent injuries, are exceedingly painful. Such burns fre- quently referred to as “flashes”, feel like hot sand in the eye, If the eye is focused on the arc without filterglass protec- tion, infra-red radiation can cause retinal scarring and tm- paired vision. For eye burns consult your first aid station or doctor. NEVER use cracked, dl-fitting, or defective plates, The fiiter glass plate provided in the helmets and shields must be of reputable manufacture conforming to the latest Ameri- can National Standards Institute, Standard Z2.1. Replace cracked or ill-fitting filter plates promptly. NEVER use filter plates without a protecting cover glass. OM-450 Page 3 Keep a clean cover glass in front of the filter plate for the protection thereof. Frequent renewal of these cover glasses is necessary, since they become covered with spatter, reducing vision, 1-22. CLOTHING NEVER use poor, inadequate, or worn-out clothing. Wear heavy shoes, tightly laced. Keep clothing dry. Proper and dry, oil-free clothing is essential for the welder’s protection. Clothing must not only keep off the spatter and molten particles, but must also obstruct the rays of the arc and, when necessary, insulate the body from harmful electri- cal currents, Wear leather or asbestos gloves at all times to protect the hands and wrists. Dark colored shirts are preferred to light ones because light ones reflect arc rays to exposed parts of the body. In the case of gas shielded-arc welding, light colors are more reflective and may cause eye burns due to the in- tense ultra-violet rays given off by the process, Avoid cotton fabrics when gas shielded-arc welding, An arc burn on the skin resembles a sunburn, except that it is usually more severe, Clothing can be made flame resistant by treatment with a solution of 3/4 pound of sodium stannate in 1 gallon of water, then wrung out and dipped in a solution of 1/4 pound ammonium sulphate per gallon of water. Don't wash clothing so prepared in water, but dry clean, When welding operations are to be performed in vertical and overhead positions, leather sieevelets, aprons, and in some cases leggings and ear plugs should be used to prevent severe burns from spatter and molten metal. 1-23. HOT METAL BURNS NEVER pick up hot objects. (Figure 1-8) Figure 1-9. Never pick up hot objects NEVER pick up pieces of metal which have just been welded or heated, or the stub ends of electrodes which have been discarded. 1-24. GRINDING AND CHIPPING NEVER do any chipping or grinding without protective goggles. (Figure 1-10) Figure 1-10. Never do any chipping or grinding without protective goggles. Page 4 1-25. Whenever it is necessary to grind or chip metal, wear protec- tive goggles specifically designed for this purpose. Serious eye injuries may result from failure to wear protective goggles. COMPRESSED GAS CYLINDERS NEVER strike an arc on a compressed gas cylinder, Always observe the following precautions in regards to compressed gas cylinders: 1. Avoid accidental contact of the electrodes, electrode holder, or other electrically energized parts with a compressed gas cylinder or any other pressure vessel. Serious accidents or fires may result, 2. Use |.C.C.or D.O.T. cylinders. They are manufactured and maintained in accordance with D.O.T. require- ments and are safe so long as they are properly handled. Don’t drop cylinders, 3. Identify gas content by the name marked on the cylin- der. If the cylinder is unmarked, do not use it. Return it to the supplier. Do not rely on a color code. 4, Never use a cylinder or its contents for other than intended purposes. 5, Keep oil and grease away from oxygen cylinders and cylinder valves. 6. Keep cylinders away from exposure to sparks, hot slag, open flame and ail possible sources of ignition or excessive heat, 7. Be careful that cylinders are not placed so as to be- come a part of an electrical circuit. Avoid third rails, wires and electric welding circuits. 8. When transporting cylinders by crare, use cradle plat- form or other suitable support. 9. Never lift the cylinders by slings, by the caps or by electric magnets. 10. Never use cylinders as supports or rollers. 11. Never try to mix any gases in a cylinder. 12. Never try to refill a cylinder. 13. Mark or tag empty cylinders “Empty” or “MT”. 14. $Send “Emptys” back to the supplier promptly. 15, 15, Keep ‘’Emptys’’ and “Fulls” separate, 16. Never tamper with or alter cylinder numbers or other markings. This is not only foolish but may be illegal. 17. Do not tamper with or change fittings on cylinders. 18. If valves cannot be opened by hand, do not use ham- mer or wrench, Notify supplier. 19. Protect cylinder valves from bumps, falls, falling ob- jects, and from weather. Keep them covered with cylinder caps when moving cylinders. 20. Keep vaives closed on empty cylinders, 21. See that your cylinders are clear of passageways and active work areas and that they are secured against falling. 22. if adapter is required between cylinder and regulator, always use a standard adapter. These may be obtained from your supplier, Where right and left hand threads are used on adapter, use two wrenches to insure leak proof connections. 23. Do not store cylinders in unventilated areas.

DESCRIPTION This welding generator is designed for use with the Shielded Metal-Arc Welding {SMAW) {Stick Electrode} process. Welding power is furnished by a three phase main generator which is fed through the necessary siope or range transformer to a Range Switch. This switch controls the alternating cur- rent value fed to the main power rectifier, which rectifies alternating current to direct current for welding. The main generator which is fed through the necessary slope or range transformer to a Range Switch. This switch controls the alternating current exciter generator. The exciter current is rectified to direct current, which in turn is regulated through the FINE CURRENT Control to the main generator revolving field. The FINE CURRENT Control determines the amount of exciter current in the main generator revolving field. This control aliows fine current adjustment within each LOCATION Good installation is essential if the generator and engine are to provide satisfactory and dependable service.

GENERATOR CHASSIS GROUND ; EQUIPMENT Normaily engine driven welding generators are not required ; GROUNDING to be grounded. However, this machine has auxiliary power ! TERMINAL plant capabitity, therefore grounding of the frame and case is recommended. For this reason a convenient grounding ter- minal is provided on all welding generators/power plant units. For detailed grounding instructions consult your local or state codes or the latest issue of the National Electrical Code. 4-1. 120 VOLT AC RECEPTACLE (Figure 4-1) Up to 3kva of 120 volts 60 Hertz power is available at this duplex receptacle for operating 120 volt ac or 120 volt uni- versal power tools etc. when the welding generator is being operated at weld speed. Since the engine used to power this generator is equipped with an automatic idling device, care must be taken in the use of the 120 volt receptacie. The voltage at this receptacle will drop below 120 voits when engine speed is reduced to idling rpm. The low voltage may damage the 120 volt electrical equipment connected to this receptacle. SECTION 4 - OPERATION OF GENERATOR CONTROLS Figure 3-3. Generator Chassis Ground The Range Switch permits selection of five different amper- age ranges. Each of the five switch positions has its amperage range indicated at the top end of the Range Switch Handle. Fine amperage adjustment of the coarse range selected may be obtained by utilizing the FINE CURRENT Control, the function of which will be explained in section 4-3. . FINE CURRENT CONTROL (Figure 4-1) The FINE CURRENT Control permits the aperator to select an exact amount of welding amperage. This control allows adjustment of the welding amperage from minimum to maxi- mum of the coarse amperage range that was selected by the Range Switch, IMPORTANT The scale surrounding the FINE CURRENT Control is cali- brated from O to 100 percent in increments of ten. Due to this percentage calibration, it should be noted that if the operator is using this scale to select a fine amperage setting, the operator is selecting a percentage of the coarse range selected and not an actual amperage value. Ensure that the IDLE CONTROL Switch, located on the front control panel, is in the LOCKED QUT posi- ton when electrical equipment is being operated from the 120 VOLT AC Receptacle. See the OPERATION OF ENGINE CONTROLS Section for complete in- structions on the operation of the Automatic Idling i Device. I 4-4.

RANGE SWITCH (Figure 4-1) IMPORTANT Load voltage is predetermined to a large extent by the arc characteristics. With the use of the Volt-Ampere curves it is possible to determine what the weld current will be at a particular arc voltage. Remember, the Voit-Ampere curves show the minimum and maximum curves of each coarse cur- rent range. When the FINE CURRENT Control is adjusted, the Voit-Ampere curve will fall between the minimum and maximum curves of the particular coarse current range in use. Do not operate the Range Switch whiie welding. Movement of the switch while under load will cause arcing across the switch contacts and thus cause the contacts to pit.

Connect the electrode cable to the positive weld ter- minal of the welding generator. b. Connect the work cable to the negative weld terminal — of the welding generator: IMPORTANT Do not operate the Range Switch while an arc is established. Arcing caused by opening a switch carry- ing high current will severely burn the contact surfaces of the switch. This burning of the contact surfaces will decrease the maximum current carrying capacity of the switch and possibly cause the switch to become inoperative. SECTION 5-GENERATOR OPERATION sess se—— 3. Place the Range Switch and FINE CURRENT Control to the desired position. 4. Ensure that the engine has been prepared for operation as stated in Section 7. 5. Start the engine. Refer to section 9 for proper engine starting procedures. : 6. After the engine is operating properly, welding may com- mence. IMPORTANT Whenever starting the welding generator or operating it at idle rpm, it is essential that all electrical equip- ment connected to the 120 VOLT AC Receptacle be turned off. Failure to comply may result in damage 10 the electrical equipment. Damage may be incurred be- cause the welding generator is putting out a voltage and frequency far below 120 volts 60 Hertz when i operating at idle speed. B 7. The FINE CURRENT Control may be adjusted while welding. 8. After the welding operation has been completed, allow the engine to idle for a few minutes before shutting it down. 6-1. GENERAL Page 8 Economical operation and trouble-free service of this welding generator are based upon regular inspections and reasonable attention. Occasional blowing out of the unit with clean dry com- pressed air is recommended, This should be performed periodically, depending upon the location of the unit and the amount of dust and dirt in the atmosphere. IACI | ® If any work is to be done on the armature of the ' generator, remove the spark plugs from the engine. This will prevent engine compression from turning the armature and catching the repairman’s hand between the armature fan casting and the stationary adapter casting, This welding generator is equipped with hinged side panels to permit easy access when performing inspection and mainten- ance functions on the generator and engine. : . COLLECTOR RING BRUSHES The brushes should be inspected periodically to ensure their proper function. The brush life is very good under normal conditions. !f the generator has been operating in an ex- tremely dusty or dirty place, a close check of the brushes for freedom of movement and cleanliness should be made weekly. Under normal use the commutator and slip rings will discolor to a dark brown. If it should become necessary to clean the slip rings or commutator, use a 3/0 or finer sand- paper followed by a crocus cloth. Never use emery cloth as part of the emery will embed itself into the exiter or collec- tor rings and in turn destroy the carbon brushes. . WELDING CABLES Check connections periodically for tightness, The cabies should be inspected frequently and all breaks in the insula- tion should be repaired with electrical insulating tape or the cables replaced.

I - LUBRICATION This engine was shipped from the factory with its crankcase filled with the correct amount and type of break-in oil unless otherwise ordered. Check the oil level before attempting to operate the engine. it should be up to the full mark on the bayonet type indicator. Add a quality brand of detergent oil if the ail level is low. See the oil selection chart, Table 10-1, in Section 10. ml À = b. 2 KEEP CRANKCASE OIL / AT THIS LEVEL NEVER OPERATE ENGINE a WITH OIL BELOW THIS LEVEL < AA-900 033-314 Figure 7-1. Oil Level indicator IMPORTANT New engines have very close clearance between their moving parts. Thus, it is recommended that [loading of the engine be kept to a minimum during the first 50 hours of operation. Be sure to check the oil level several times each day during the engine break-in period. This engine requires about 50 hours of running | time before it will be fully broken in. | After about 50 hours of running time, drain the break-in oil and change. the oil filter. See the oil selection chart, Table 10-1, in Section 10 for correct oil type and grade to use after the break-in oil is drained. . COOLANT SYSTEM The liquid capacity of the coolant system in this welding generator is 11 quarts (US measure). This unit is shipped from the factory with the proper amount of water and anti- freeze to permit operation of the unit at temperatures dowr * to —15°F. IMPORTANT If this welding generator is to be operated in tempera- tures which are below —15°F, additional anti-freeze will have to be added to the coolant system or the liquid in the system will freeze and thus cause the engine 10 overheat. The coolant system is equipped with a 180°F thermostat. If the thermostat should become defective, be sure the replace- ment is of equal temperature rating. IMPORTANT Do not run the engine with a defective thermostat or without one. If this is done, the engine will run cold and develop excess carbon accumulation and the oil wil} become contaminated with excessive studge and dirt. The radiator for this engine is equipped with a pressurized cap which is rated at 7 psi. If this cap is ever replaced, ensure that the replacement cap has a rating of 7 psi. 7-3. 7-4. 7-5 RT ito Caution should be exercised at all times when re- moving the radiator pressure cap. The cap will turn to an almost full open position, at which point a provi- sion has been made to permit venting built up pressure within the radiator. Allow the pressure to escape be- fore completely removing the cap from the radiator neck. When removing the cap, it is recommended that a glove or rag be used to protect the operator's hand | from possible exposure to extremely hot coolant. | READYING NEW BATTERY FOR SERVICE This battery is shipped from the factory in a dry state. A sufficient amount of electrolyte is shipped along in separate containers to activate the dry charge battery. To prepare the new battery for operation, proceed as follows: CAUTION | Put on protective eye cover and ciothing prior to pour- | ing the electrolyte solution, 1 1. Remove the battery from the unit and place it on a level work table or other suitable area. 2. Fill the battery cells to the required level with electrolyte. Do not dilute this electrolyte as it is pre-mixed to the I required strength. i 3. Place a battery thermometer in one of the center cells and check the specific gravity of each cell with a battery hydrometer. 4. The battery temperature must be above 80°F and the specific gravity reading above 1.240 prior to installation. IT both conditions are not met, charge the battery follow- ing the below instructions: "a. Use an automotive type battery charger. This battery should be charged at about a 3.5 ampere rate until correct electrolyte conditions are met. Lower charging rates can be used. However, the time to obtain the correct electrolyte conditions will be longer. b, When the battery is charged, remove tt from the charger and re-check the electrolyte level. Add if necessary. с. Rinse out the empty electrolyte containers with water before discarding. Since battery acid is corrosive to metals, do not pour into a metal sink or drain. Rinse and mutilate the empty electrolyte container before discarding. If acid has accidentally spilled on the battery or work area during filling or charging, flush off with clear water and neutralize with soda or ammonia solution. Use the same procedure if acid is spilled on clothing. 5. Re-install the battery in the unit making sure that the negative (—) terminal of the battery is connected to the ground cable, AIR CLEANER The air cleaner this engine is equipped with, is a dry element type with a replaceable filter element. The air cleaner re- quires no initial service. . FUEL Use a good grade of “regular” gasoline, rated at least at 85 octane, for this engine. Fuels of lower octane ratings may cause detonations {knocking} which could result in damage to the engine bearings and head gasket. The fuel capacity of the fuel tank is 16.5 gallons (U.S. Measure). OM-450 Page 9 The fuel tank is equipped with a trap area in the bottom of the tank. As a result, the tank will not go completely dry. The purpose of this trap area is to hold water and dirt back from the engine. A drain plug is located on the left, bottom of the tank to drain water and dirt from the tank if it should become necessary. RII ь О Never allow the fuel to drain on the engine, the gener- ator, or other components, Arrange provisions for. catching the fuel when being drained and if the tank must be drained frequently, install a valve and drain line in the tank. When filling the fuel tank, do not fill completely full. The reason being that the cold fuel will expand due to engine heat and the outside air when operating in a warm climate. If the tank is too full, it will overflow causing a potential fire hazard. Also, do not attempt to fill the fuel tank with the engine running, always shut the engine down first. A fuel consumptian chart is shown in Figure 7-2 to give an idea of the fuel consumption of this engine under load.

Engine Controls CHOKE CONTROL (Figure 8-1) A CHOKE Control for varying the fuel-air mixture to the engine, is provided on the front control panel of the welding generator. When the CHOKE Control is pushed fully out, very little air will be admitted to the engine thru the car buretor thereby supplying a richer mixture of fuel. This posi- tion is required if the engine is cold when started. As the engine warms up it will be necessary to push the CHOKE Control inward slowly until itis pushed in as far as it will go. When the CHOKE Control is fully in, the engine should be ready-for operation. . STARTER SWITCH (Figure 8-1) A key actuated Starter Switch is provided on the front panel for starting and stopping the engine. Rotating the key fully clockwise wil! engage the starter motor and start the engine. Once the engine has started, releasing the key will auto matically return the Starter Switch to the On position. To stop the engine, rotate the key fully countercl ockwise to the Off position. . AUTOMATIC IDLE CONTROL (Figure 8-1 8 8-2) This engine is equipped with an automatic idíing device as standard equipment. When the Idle Control is being employ- ed, the engine will remain at idle mm when the generator is not loaded, thus saving fuel etc. The Idle Control uses a combination electric-vacuum control, An IDLE CONTROL switch, located on the generator con- LITERS /HR IMP.

The LOCK IN position allows the engine to idie until an arc is struck. The LOCK OUT position of the switch is used whenever it is necessary or desirable to operate the engine at constant weld rpm (1800), which would be the case when 120 volt ac power is required from the 120 volt receptacie. The IDLE CONTROL Switch LOCK IN position would usually be used when Shielded Metal-Arc Welding (SMAW- Stick) is being done as this process does not require a con- stant speed, This only holds true if the 120 volt ac receptacie is not being used. In event accessory power tools are to be operated from the 120 volt ac receptacles, place the iDLE CONTROL Switch in the LOCK OUT position. IMPORTANT “If 120 volt ac power equipment is going to be oper ated from the 120 volt ac power receptacle, be sure the equipment is “off” until the engine ts operating at full speed (1800 rpm}. The same holds true when returning the engine to idle. If power tools are oper- ated while the engine is idling, low voltage and -fre- quency {resulting from the lower engine idling rpm) at the power receptacle may cause damage to the 120 I volt equipment.

When the engine is started, engine speed will remain at idle until an arc is established, at which time the engine immediately comes up to weld speed. When the arc is broken, a time delay will exist before the engine begins to return to idle speed. The tength of this time delay is controlled by the setting of Screw “A” in Figure 8-2. This screw is located on the vacuum line fitting going into the Intake Manifold of the engine. Figure 8-2 shows the adjustment of this screw. 8 - 4. OIL PRESSURE GAUGE (Figure 8-1) The Oil Pressure Gauge registers the lubricating system pres- sure in pounds per square inch. Normally, the pressure regi- ‘stered by the gauge should remain constant for a given engine speed. Should the pressure fluctuate or drop, stop the engine and do not operate the engine again until the trouble has been remedied. 8-5. ENGINE AMMETER (Figure 8-1) The Engine Ammeter, located on the front control panel, registers the charging current which is being supplied to the battery by the charging generator. 1t also registers a discharge equivalent to the amount of current being used by the engine electrical system when the generator is not charging. 8-6. TEMPERATURE GAUGE (Figure 8-1) The Temperature Gauge registers the coolant temperature and will indicate when an overheated condition occurs. 8-7. CARBURETOR AIR TEMPERATURE SELECTOR {Figure 8-3) The air intake to the air cleaner is equpped with a selector tube which allows the air to be drawn either from the sur- rounding engine compartment air or heated air, drawn from around the exhaust manifold of the engine. Heated air will prevent carburetor icing in cold weather. Figure 8-3 shows the selector tube in the cold weather oper- ating position.

During this period, the load on the engine should be kept as light as possible. The oil leve! should be checked a number of times during an operating day, as some engines will use oil during the break-in period. After about 50 hours of running time on the break-in oil, drain the oil. Premium heavy duty oil, manufactured by any one of the IMPORTANT Always ensure that the starter pinion and flywheel ‘have stopped rotating before re-engaging the starter motor, otherwise the ring or pinion may be damaged. 5, When the engine starts, release the Starter Switch.

Allow the engine to ¡dle for a few minutes, allow a longer length of time if the engine has been operating at full load. This idling time is to ensure that the internal engine temperature has a chance to equalize. 3. Place the Starter Switch in the OFF position. SECTION 10 - ENGINE MAINTENANCE m========—==—=—e major oil companies, should be used as a replacement oil. Table 10-1 gives a list of recommended grades and types of oil to use to keep oil level up during break-in and to use after the break-in oil is drained. The capacity of the engine with a filter change is 4-1/2 quarts, without a filter change, 4 quarts. Check the dip stick to make sure oil level Is up to the re- quired operating level. In normal operation, oil should be changed after about 50 OM-450 Page 11 10-2. 10-3. 10-4. Page 12 hours of operation with a filter change every 150 hours. The oil should be drained after the engine has been warmed up to normal operating temperature, thus promoting foreign parti- cle suspension in the oil and thereby removal when the oil is drained. Foreign particles tend to settle at the bottom of the crankcase when the oil is allowed to cool, thereby avoiding removal and thus contaminating the new oil added. Table 10-1. Oil Selection Guide Above 90 degrees Fahrenheit Not lower than 32 degrees SAE 30 or TOW-30 SAE 20 or 20W 10W-30 or 10W-20 As low as 10 degrees above zero Fahrenheit SAE 20W ~ 10W-30 or 10W-20 As low as 10 degrees below zero Fahrenheit SAE 10W TOW-30 or 10W-20 Lower than 10 degrees below zero Fahrenheit SAE 5W or 5W-20 COOLANT SYSTEM If the engine is to be operated in a temperature below —159F, make sure a good grade of anti-freeze is added to the coolant system. Change the coalant solution as often as nec- essary. The coolant system capacity is 11 quarts (US, Mea- sure). During the break-in period of a new engine, one of the greatest dangers is over-heating. There are several possible causes of over-heating, but the basic items for consideration are engine lubrication and coolant circulation. At the first sign of over-heating, shut the engine down and make a thorough check to determine the cause. Temperature of the engine coolant is regulated by a thermo- static valve located in the outlet at the front of the cylinder head. This unit retards the flow of coolant until a predeter- mined temperature is reached, usually varying between 17G°E and 180°F. When the desired temperature is achieved, the valve opens and free circulation of the coolant through the system begins. If the thermostat valve becomes faulty and does not open at the correct temperature, the thermostat should be removed and a replacement installed immediately. GOVERNOR SERVICE The governor speed setting and sensitivity setting are factory set to obtain correct weld speed (1800 rem) and engine re- sponse to changing load conditions. The governor speed con- trol setting is factory locked with a lead seal. Do not remove this seal unless absolutely necessary. The governor, as used in conjunction with this engine, does not have a “No Load Surge” adjustment as de- j scribed in the Engine Manual. | The engine is factory set to operate at 900 rpm idle speed and 1800 rom when it comes up to weld speed. For informa- tion concerning governor adjustment, refer to the Engine Manual, Page 41, paragraph entitled “Pierce Governor”. CARBURETOR FLOAT SETTING To ensure correct fuel level in the float chamber, check dis- tance {dimension A, Figure 10-1} from top of floats to machined surface of throttle body (no gasket} with throttle body inverted. This dimension should be 1-5/32 inches plus or minus 1/32 inch. To increase or decrease distance from the top of the float bodies to the machined surface, use a long nose pliers and bend the float lever at a point close to the float body. TT À kh —>— - AA-300 955-9 Figure 10-1. Carburetor Float Setting Do not bend, twist or apply pressure on the float bodies. The float bodies when viewed from the free end of the bodies must be centered between and at right angles to the machined surface and must move i freely on the float axle. i 10-5. VACUUM CIRCUIT AIR FILTER In order to provide clean air for the vacuum circuit, a brass fitting type air cleaner is provided on the underside of the idle control valve.
