TheLOCATIONwelder should/ VENTILATIONbe located to provide an unrestrict- ed flow of clean, cool air to the cooling air inlets and to avoid heated air coming out of the welder recirculating back to the cooling air inlet. Also, locate the welder so that engine exhaust fumes are properly vented to an outside area.

INSTRUCTIONS
ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Always operate the welder with the roof and case sides in place as this provides maximum protection from moving parts and assures proper cooling air flow.
Read and understand all Safety Precautions before operating this machine. Always follow these and any other safety procedures included in this manual and in the Engine Ownerʼs Manual.
WELDER OPERATION
•WELDERMaximumOUTPUTOpen Circuit Voltage at 3700 RPM is 80 Volts RMS.
• Duty Cycle is the percentage of time the load is being applied in a 10 minute period. For example, a 60% duty cycle represents 6 minutes of load and 4 minutes of no load in a 10 minute period. Duty Cycle for the RANGER® 10,000 is 100%.
