GENERATOR/WELDER CONTROLS

See Figure B.1 for the location of the following fea- tures:

1.CURRENT CONTROL DIAL: Adjusts continuous current output. The amperages on the dial corre- spond to the average amperages needed for spe- cific Lincoln welding electrodes.

2.ELECTRODE SELECTION GUIDE: Provides rec- ommended electrodes.

3.WELD OUTPUT TERMINALS (TO ELECTRODE HOLDER, HIGH RANGE AND LOW RANGE): Pro- vides the connection point for the electrode hold- er cable.

4.WELD OUTPUT TERMINAL (TO WORK): Provides the connection point for the work cable.

5.GROUNDING TERMINAL: Provides a connection point for connecting the machine to earth ground for the recommended grounding procedure.

6.CIRCUIT BREAKERS (3): Provides separate overload current protection for the 120 volt and 120/240 volt receptacles.

7.15 AMP, 120 VOLT GFCI DUPLEX RECEPTACLE: For supplying 120 volt power to operate one or two electrical devices.

8.30 AMP, 120 VOLT TWIST-LOCK RECEPTACLE:

120 volt power for higher power requirements.

9.30 AMP, 120/240 VOLT TWIST-LOCK RECEPTACLE: For supplying 240 volt power and for connection to 120/240 volt premises wiring.

10.ENGINE HOUR METER: Records engine running time. Use this meter to schedule engine mainte- nance.
