ANGLE OF OPERATION

Internal combustion engines are designed to run in a level condition which is where the optimum perfor- mance is achieved. The maximum angle of operation for the engine is 15 degrees from horizontal in any direction. If the engine is to be operated at an angle, provisions must be made for checking and maintaining the oil at the normal (FULL) oil capacity in the crankcase in a level condition.

When operating at an angle, the effective fuel capacity will be slightly less than the specified 9 gallons.

CAUTION

Do not operate a EAGLE 10,000 with a high altitude jet installed at altitudes below 5000 ft. This will result in the engine running too lean and result in higher engine operating temperatures which can shorten engine life.

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

Contact your local Kohler Authorized Dealer for high altitude jet kits that are available from the engine man- ufacturer.

LIFTING

The EAGLE 10,000 weighs approximately 575 lbs. with a full tank of gasoline. A lift bail is mounted to the machine and should always be used when lifting the machine.

WARNING

	• Lift only with equipment of
	adequate lifting capacity.
	• Be sure machine is stable
	when lifting.
	• Do not lift this machine using
	lift bale if it is equipped with a
	heavy accessory such as trail-
	er or gas cylinder.
	• Do not lift machine if lift bale
FALLING	is damaged.

EQUIPMENT can • Do not operate machine while

cause injury. suspended from lift bale.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION

If the EAGLE 10,000 will be consistently operated at altitudes above 5000 ft, a carburetor jet designed for high altitudes should be installed. This will result in bet- ter fuel economy, cleaner exhaust, and longer spark plug life. It will not give increased power which is decreased at higher altitudes. Engine horsepower is reduced by 3.5% per 1000 feet for altitudes above 377 feet.

Muffler Relocation

WARNING

•Shut off welder and allow muffler to cool before

touching muffler.

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

The EAGLE 10,000 is shipped with the exhaust com- ing out on the left side. The exhaust can be changed to the opposite side by removing the two screws that hold the exhaust port cover in place and installing the cover on the opposite side. (Operating the EAGLE 10,000 without the cover in place will result in a higher noise level and no increase in machine output.)

LOCATION / VENTILATION

The welder should be located to provide an unrestrict- ed flow of clean, cool air to the cooling air inlets and to avoid heated air coming out of the welder recirculating back to the cooling air inlet. Also, locate the welder so that engine exhaust fumes are properly vented to an outside area.

STACKING

EAGLE 10,000 machines cannot be stacked.
