RECOMMENDED APPLICATIONS

WELDER

The Ranger 275 provides excellent constant current DC welding output for stick (SMAW) welding and for TIG welding, and it offers constant voltage output for DC semiautomatic wire feed welding.

GENERATOR

The Ranger 275 gives AC power output for medium use demands.

LIMITATIONS

The Ranger 275 is not recommended for any processes besides those that are normally per- formed using stick welding (SMAW), TIG welding (GTAW), MIG (GMAW) welding and Innershield® (FCAW) welding.

The Ranger 275 is not recommended for pipe thawing.

During welding, generator power is limited and out- put voltages can drop. Therefore, DO NOT OPER-

ATE ANY SENSITIVE ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT WHILE YOU ARE WELDING. See Table B.4 for permissible simultaneous welding and auxiliary power loads.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Always operate the welder with the roof and case sides in place as this provides maximum protection from moving parts and assures proper cooling air flow.

Read and understand all Safety Precautions before operating this machine. Always follow these and any other safety procedures included in this manual and in the Engine Owner’s Manual.

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