SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

Do not attempt to use this equipment until you have thoroughly read the engine manufacturerʼs manual supplied with your welder. It includes important safety precautions, detailed engine starting, operating and maintenance instructions, and parts lists.

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

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

• Do not touch electrically live parts or electrode with skin or wet clothing.

•Insulate yourself from work and ground

•Always wear dry insulating gloves.

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

ENGINE EXHAUST can kill.

• Use in open, well ventilated areas or vent exhaust outside.

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

MOVING PARTS can injure.

•Do not operate with doors open or guards off.

• Stop engine before servicing.

•Keep away from moving parts.

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

See additional warning information at front of this operatorʼs manual.

Only qualified personnel should install, use, or service this equipment.

LOCATION AND VENTILATION

The welder should be located to provide an unrestrict- ed flow of clean, cool air to the cooling air inlets and to avoid restricting the cooling air outlets. Also, locate the welder so that the engine exhaust fumes are properly vented to an outside area.

STACKING

RANGER® 305D (CE) machines cannot be stacked.

ANGLE OF OPERATION

Engines are designed to run in the level condition which is where the optimum performance is achieved. The maximum angle of continuous operation is 20 degrees in all directions, 35 degrees Intermittent (less than 10 minutes continuous) in all directions. If the engine is to be operated at an angle, provisions must be made for checking and maintaining the oil level at the normal (FULL) oil capacity in the crankcase.

When operating the welder at an angle, the effective fuel capacity will be slightly less than the specified 45 liters (12 gallons).

LIFTING

The machine weighs approximately 374 kg. (824 lbs) with a full tank of fuel. A lift bail is mounted to the machine and should always be used when lifting the machine.

WARNING

•Lift only with equipment of ade- quate lifting capacity.

•Be sure machine is stable when lift-

ing.

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

FALLING

• Do not lift machine if lift bail is

cause injury.

• Do not operate machine while

 

suspended from lift bail.

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

HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION

At higher altitudes, output derating may be necessary. For max- imum rating, derate the machine 2.5% to 3.5% for every 305m (1000ft.). Due to new EPA and other local emissions regula- tions, modifications to the engine for high altitude are restricted within the United States and some European Countries. Use above 1828m (6000 ft.) may be limited due to poor engine per- formance or excessive exhaust smoke. An authorized Kubota engine field service shop should be contacted to determine if any adjustments can be made for operation in higher elevations locally.

HIGH TEMPERATURE OPERATION

At temperatures above 40°C,welder output derating is neces- sary. For maximum output ratings, derate the welder output 2 volts for every 10°C above 40°C.

Cold weather starting:

With a fully charged battery and the proper oil, the engine should start satisfactorily down to about -15°C (5°F). If the engine must be frequently started at or below -5°C (23°F), 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 -5°C (23°F). Allow the engine to warm up before applying a load or switching to high idle.

WARNING

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

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