PRE-OPERATION ENGINE SERVICE

READ the engine operating and maintenance instructions supplied with this machine.

WARNING

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 expansion may cause overflow.

DIESEL FUEL ONLY

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

1.Connect the welder output studs to a suitable resistive load bank. Note that any attempt to short the output studs by connecting the welding leads together, direct shorting of the output studs, or connecting the output leads to a length of steel will result in catastrophic damage to the generator and voids the warranty.

2.Set the welder controls for an output current and voltage within the welder rating and duty cycle. Note that any attempt to exceed the welder rating or duty cycle for any period of time will result in catastrophic damage to the generator and voids the warranty.

3.Periodically shut off the engine and check the crankcase oil level.

ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM

The Deutz engine is air cooled by a belt driven axial blower. The oil cooler and engine cooling fins should be blown out with compressed air or steam to maintain proper cooling (See the engine Owners Manual for procedures and frequency).

OIL

The Vantage is shipped with the engine crankcase filled with high quality SAE 10W-30 oil (API class CD or better). 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 35 running hours. Refer to the engine Operator’s Manual for specific oil recommendations and break-in information. The oil change interval is dependent on the quality of the oil and the operating environment. Refer to the engine Operator’s Manual for the proper service and maintenance intervals.

FUEL USE DIESEL FUEL ONLY

Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh diesel fuel. The capacity of the fuel tank is approx 95 liters. See engine Operator’s Manual for specific fuel recommendations. Running out of fuel may require bleeding the fuel injection pump. NOTE: Before starting the engine, open the fuel shutoff valve (pointer to be in line with hose).

FUEL CAP

Remove the plastic cap covering from the Fuel Tank Filler neck and install the Fuel Cap.

BATTERY CONNECTION

WARNING

GASES FROM BATTERY can explode.

Keep sparks, flame and cigarettes away from battery.

To prevent EXPLOSION when:

INSTALLING A NEW BATTERY — disconnect negative cable from old battery first and connect to new battery last.

CONNECTING A BATTERY CHARGER — remove battery from welder by disconnecting negative cable first, then positive cable and battery clamp. When reinstalling, connect negative cable last. Keep well ventilated.

USING A BOOSTER — connect positive lead to battery first then connect negative lead to negative battery lead at engine foot.

ENGINE BREAK-IN

Lincoln Electric selects high quality, heavy-duty industrial engines for the portable welding machines we offer. While it is normal to see a small amount of crankcase oil consumption during initial operation, excessive oil use, wetstacking (oil or tar like substance at the exhaust port), or excessive smoke is not normal.

Larger machines with a capacity of 350 amperes and higher, which are operated at low or no-load conditions for extended periods of time are especially susceptible to the conditions described above. To accomplish successful engine break-in, most diesel-powered equipment needs only to be run at a reasonably heavy load within the rating of the welder for some period of time during the engine’s early life. However, if the welder is subjected to extensive light loading, occasional moderate to heavy loading of the engine may sometimes be necessary. Caution must be observed in correctly loading a diesel/generator unit.

BATTERY ACID can burn eyes and skin.

Wear gloves and eye protection and be careful when working near battery.

Follow instructions printed on battery.

IMPORTANT: To prevent ELECTRICAL DAMAGE WHEN:

a)Installing new batteries.

b)Using a booster.

Use correct polarity Negative Ground.
