TOWING

The recommended trailer for use with this equipment

WARNING

for road, in-plant and yard towing by a vehicle(1) is Lincolnʼs K957-1. 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 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 there will be no undue

can cause fire or explosion.

•Stop engine while fueling.

•Do not smoke when fueling.

•Keep sparks and flame away from tank.

•Do not leave unattended while fueling.

•Wipe up spilled fuel and allow fumes to clear before starting engine.

•Do not overfill tank, fuel expan- sion may cause overflow.

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; rough-

 

ness of surface on which the trailer will be operat-

 

ed; environmental conditions.

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

VEHICLE MOUNTING

GASOLINE FUEL ONLY

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

OIL

The RANGER® 250 is shipped with the engine crankcase filled with high quality SAE 10W-30 oil. 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 25 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 operat- ing environment. Refer to the Engine Operatorʼs Manual for the proper service and maintenance intervals.

FUEL

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 manufactureʼs instructions.

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

PRE-OPERATION ENGINE SERVICE

READ the engine operating and maintenance instruc- tions supplied with this machine.

CAUTION

USE GASOLINE FUEL ONLY

Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh fuel. The capaci- ty of the fuel tank is 12 gallons (45.4 liters). When the fuel gauge reads empty the tank contains approximately 2 gallons (7.6 liters) of reserve fuel.

NOTE: The fuel tank is mounted below the engine so a fuel shutoff valve is not required.

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

ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM

Air to cool the engine is drawn in lower set of louvers on the case back. It is important that the intake air is not restricted. Allow a minimum clearance of 2 feet (0.6m) from the case back to a vertical surface.

BATTERY CONNECTION

CAUTION

Use caution as the electrolyte is a strong acid that can burn skin and damage eyes.
