HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION

At higher altitudes, output derating may be necessary. For maximum rating, derate the machine 1.0% for every 2000 ft. (610m) up to 6000 ft. (1828m) and 2.0% for every 2000 ft.

(610m) over 6000 ft. (1828m). Due to new EPA and other local emissions regulations, modifications to the engine for high altitude are restricted within the United States. If required contact an authorized Perkins engine field service shop to determine if any adjustments can be made for oper- ation in higher elevations.

HIGH TEMPERATURE OPERATION

At temperatures above 104°F(40°C), Welder output derating is necessary. For maximum output ratings, derate the welder output 2 volts for every 18°F(10°C) above 104°F(40°C).

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 sur- face on which the trailer will be operated; environmental con- ditions; like maintenance.

5.Conformance with federal, state and local laws.(1)

(1)Consult applicable federal, state and local laws regarding specific require- ments 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 manufacturerʼs instructions.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cold weather starting:

With a fully charged battery and the proper oil, the engine should start satisfactorily down to -15°F(- 26C°). If the engine must be frequently started at or below 0°F (-18°C), it may be desirable to install cold- starting aides. The use of No. 1D diesel fuel is recom- mended in place of No. 2D at temperatures below 23°F (-5°C). Allow the engine to warm up before applying a load or switching to high idle.

Note: Extreme cold weather starting may require longer glow plug operation.

WARNING

Under no conditions should ether or other starting fluids be used with this engine!

------------------------------------------------------------------------

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:

PRE-OPERATION ENGINE SERVICE

READ the engine operating and maintenance instruc- tions 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 VANTAGE® 580 is shipped with the engine crankcase filled with high quality SAE 10W-30 Oil that meets classification CG-4 or CH-4 for diesel engines. 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 Operatorʼs Manual for specific oil recommendations and break-in information. The oil change interval is dependent on the quality of the oil and the oper- ating environment. Refer to the Engine Operatorʼs Manual for more details on the proper service and maintenance intervals.
