IDLER OPERATION
Start the engine with the “Idler” switch in the “High”
position. Allow it to run at high idle speed for several
minutes to warm the engine. See Specifications for
operating speeds.
The idler is controlled by the “Idler” toggle switch on
the welder control panel. The switch has two posi-
tions as follows:
1. In the “High” position, the engine control unit
increases the engine to high idle speed.
2. In the “Auto” / position, the idler oper-
ates as follows:
a. When welding or drawing power for lights or tools
(approximately 100 watts minimum) from the recep-
tacles, the engine operates at high idle speed.
b. When welding ceases or the power load is turned
off, a preset time delay of about 15 seconds starts.
This time delay cannot be adjusted.
c. If the welding or power load is not re-started before
the end of the time delay, the en gine control unit
reduces the engine to low idle speed.
AUXILIARY POWER
1.75 kVA of 120 V DC auxiliary power is availiable at
the receptacle located on the control panel.
When the High Speed Adjustment knob is in the MIN
position, the voltage of the DC auxiliary output may be
reduced to below the rating on the nameplate of the
machine. It is recommended that the High Idle Speed
Adjustment knob should be in the MAX position when
using the DC auxiliary output.
Always replace blown fuse with type rated for DC volt-
age (i.e. Cooper Bussmann Inc. Model LP-CC-15 or
Littlefuse Model CCMR-15.
