3.Proper placement of the equipment on the trailer to insure stability side to side and front to back when being moved and when standing by itself while being operated or serviced.

4.Typical conditions of use, i.e., travel speed; rough- ness of surface on which the trailer will be operated; environmental conditions.

5.Conformance with federal, state and local laws(1)

(1)Consult applicable federal, state and local laws regarding specific requirements for use on public highways.

VEHICLE MOUNTING

WARNING

Improperly mounted concentrated loads may cause unstable vehicle handling and tires or other components to fail.

Only transport this Equipment on serviceable vehicles which are rated and designed for such loads.

Distribute, balance and secure loads so vehicle is stable under conditions of use.

Do not exceed maximum rated loads for components such as suspension, axles and tires.

Mount equipment base to metal bed or frame of vehicle.

Follow vehicle manufacturer’s instructions.

CAUTION

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 fuel-

ing.

• Wipe up spilled fuel and allow fumes to clear before starting engine.

Do not overfill tank, fuel expansion may cause overflow.

OIL

LUBRICATION SYSTEM CAPACITY

(INCLUDING FILTER)

Kohler CH20S - 2.0 Quarts (1.9 Liters)

The EAGLE 10,000 is shipped with the engine crankcase filled with SAE 10W-30 oil. 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. Make certain that the oil filler cap is tightened securely. Refer to the engine Owner’s Manual for specific oil recommenda- tions.

BATTERY CONNECTIONS

Use caution as the electrolyte is a strong acid that can

burn skin and damage eyes.

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

This welder is shipped with the negative battery cable disconnected. Make sure that the Engine Switch is in the “OFF” position and attach the disconnected cable securely to the negative battery ter- minal before attempting to operate the machine. If the battery is dis- charged and does not have enough power to start the engine, see the battery charging instructions in the Battery section.

NOTE: This machine is furnished with a wet charged battery; if unused for several months, the battery may require a booster charge. Be careful to charge the battery with the correct polarity.

WELDING OUTPUT CABLES

With the engine off, connect the electrode and work cables to the studs provided. These connections should be checked periodically and tightened if necessary. Loose connections will result in over- heating of the output studs.

When welding at a considerable distance from the welder, be sure you use ample size welding cables. Listed below are copper cable sizes recommended for the rated current and duty cycle. Lengths stipulated are the distance from the welder to work and back to the welder again. Cable sizes are increased for greater lengths primari- ly for the purpose of minimizing cable voltage drop.

FUEL

Fil the fuel tank with clean, fresh, lead-free gasoline. Observe fuel gauge while filling to prevent overfilling.

WARNING

• Damage to the fuel tank may cause fire or explosion. Do not drill holes in the EAGLE 10,000 base or weld to

the EAGLE 10,000 base.
