LIFTING

The Commander lift bale should be used to lift the machine. The Commander is shipped with the lift bale retracted. Before attempting to lift the Commander the lift bale must be secured in a raised position. Secure the lift bale as follows:

a.Open the engine compartment door.

b.Locate the 2 access holes on the upper middle region of compartment wall just below the lift bale.

c.Use the lifting strap to raise the lift bale to the full upright position. This will align the mounting holes on the lift bale with the access holes.

d.Secure the lift bale with 2 thread forming screws. The screws are provided in the shipped loose parts bag.

WARNING

FALLING EQUIPMENT can cause injury.

•Do not lift this machine using lift bale if it is equipped with a heavy accessory such as a trailer or gas cylinder.

•Lift only with equipment of adequate lifting capacity.

•Be sure machine is stable when lifting.

HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION

At higher altitudes, output derating may be necessary. For maximum rating, derate the welder output 5% for every 300 meters (984 ft.) above 1500 meters (4920 ft.). For output of 500A and below, derate the welder output 5% for every 300 meters (984 ft.) above 2100 meters (6888 ft.)

Contact a Deutz Service Representative for any engine adjustments that may be required.

HIGH TEMPERATURE OPERATION

At temperatures above 30°C (86°F), output voltage derating is necessary. For maximum output current rat- ings, derate welder voltage rating 2 volts for every 10°C (21°F) above 30°C (86°F).

TOWING

The recommended trailer for use with this equipment for road, in-plant and yard towing by a vehicle(1) is Lincoln’s K953-1. If the user adapts a non-Lincoln trail- er, he must assume responsibility that the method of attachment and usage does not result in a safety haz- ard nor damage the welding equipment. Some of the factors to be considered are as follows:

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 that there will be no undue stress to the trailer’s 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.

4.Typical conditions of use, such as travel speed, roughness of surface on which the trailer will be operated, and environmental conditions.

5.Proper preventative maintenance of trailer.

6.Conformance with federal, state and local laws.1

1Consult applicable federal, state and local laws regarding specific requirements for use on public high- ways.
