3.START PUSHBUTTON: When the push- button is held, the starter motor cranks over the engine - release the button once the engine starts.

NOTE: If you press the START pushbutton when the engine is running, you may damage the ring gear or starter motor.

4.ENGINE HOUR METER: Records engine running time. Use to determine when to perform required maintenance.

5.BATTERY LIGHT: Is off when battery charging sys- tem is functioning normally. If the red light turns on while the engine is running, the fan belt may be broken or the alternator or the voltage regulator may be defective.

It is normal for the light to go on when the “Engine” switch is switched to the “ON” position with the engine not running. It will go off after one minute to prevent discharging the battery if the engine is not started. If this happens, the engine protection circuit must be reset by turning the “Engine” switch to the “OFF” position and back to the “ON” posi- tion.

6.OIL PRESSURE LIGHT: Remains off with proper oil pressure. If the red light

turns on while the engine is running, the engine protection system will stop the engine.

It is normal for the light to go on when the “Engine” switch is switched to the “ON” position with the engine not running. It will go off after one minute to prevent discharging the battery if the engine is not started. If this happens, the engine protection circuit must be reset by turning the “Engine” switch to the “OFF” position and back to the “ON” posi- tion.

7. WATER TEMPERATURE LIGHT: Remains off under normal operating temperatures. If the red light turns on, the engine protec- tion system will stop the engine. The light will remain on when the engine is over temperature and the “Engine” switch is in the “ON” position (engine not running) but will go off as the engine cools.

8.FUEL LEVEL GAUGE: Displays the level of diesel fuel in the 10-gallon fuel tank.

9.ENGINE ON-OFF SWITCH: Energizes the fuel sole- noid in the “ON” position. In the STOP position, stops fuel flow to the injection pump and stops the engine.

SVM148-B specifications

The Lincoln Electric SVM148-B is a state-of-the-art inverter-based power source designed for both professional welders and hobbyists. As a versatile machine, it excels in a variety of welding applications including MIG, TIG, and stick welding. This machine is particularly notable for its efficiency and portability, making it an ideal choice for on-site projects or workshops where space is limited.

One of the main features of the SVM148-B is its inverter technology. Unlike traditional transformer-based welders, inverter welders are typically lighter and more compact. This means that users can transport the machine more easily without sacrificing power or performance. The SVM148-B is capable of delivering a substantial amperage range, allowing for adjustments that suit various materials and thicknesses, from thin sheet metal to thicker plates.

The machine offers adjustable output levels, providing precise control over the welding process. This level of control is essential for achieving clean, strong welds and is especially useful when working with different materials. The SVM148-B is equipped with digital display features that provide real-time feedback on power settings and welding parameters, allowing welders to make quick adjustments as needed.

Another significant advantage of the SVM148-B is its duty cycle, which is designed to accommodate extended usage without overheating. A robust duty cycle means that professionals can rely on this machine for prolonged periods, making it a dependable choice for heavy-duty tasks.

The SVM148-B also includes advanced safety features such as overload protection, which ensures that the machine will shut down in the event of excessive current draw. This feature not only protects the equipment but also enhances user safety during operation.

Moreover, the machine is compatible with a wide variety of welding wires and electrodes, adding to its versatility. Whether you're working with stainless steel, aluminum, or mild steel, the SVM148-B can adapt seamlessly.

In conclusion, the Lincoln Electric SVM148-B combines advanced inverter technology with user-friendly features, making it an invaluable addition to any welding setup. Its portability, control options, robust duty cycle, and safety measures set it apart as a reliable and efficient welding solution for professionals and hobbyists alike. Whether for a small workshop or large industrial applications, the SVM148-B meets the demands of modern welding with efficiency and ease.
