SECTION 10 − RUN-IN PROCEDURE

10-1. Wetstacking

	!	Do not perform run-in
		procedure at less than 20
		volts weld output and do not
		exceed duty cycle or equip-
		ment damage may occur.
2	1	Welding Generator
	Run diesel engines near rated volt-
	age and current during run-in period
	to properly seat piston rings and
	prevent wetstacking. See name-
	plate, rating label, or specifications
	section in this manual to find rated
	voltage and current.
	. Do not idle engine longer than
		necessary. Piston rings seat
		faster if engine runs at weld/
1		power rpm, and the welding
		generator is kept loaded during
		run-in.
	2	Engine Exhaust Pipe
	Wetstacking is unburned fuel and
	oil in the exhaust pipe and occurs

during run-in if the engine is run too long at light load or idle rpm.

If exhaust pipe is coated with a wet, black, tar-like substance, dry the engine using one of the following run-in procedures.

See the engine manual for addition- al engine run-in information.
