WELDER

The WELDANPOWER 125 provides excellent constant current DC welding output for stick (SMAW) welding and DC TIG welding using the “scratch” starting tech- nique. THE K903 TIG Module can be added as an option to provide high frequency starting. For more details on using the machine as a welder, see WELD- ING OPERATION in the Operation section of this manual.

GENERATOR

The WELDANPOWER 125 gives smooth AC generator output for medium use, non-commercial demands. For more details on operating the generator, see GEN- ERATOR OPERATION in the Operation section of this manual.

OPERATIONAL FEATURES AND CONTROLS

The WELDANPOWER 125 was designed for simplicity. Therefore, it has very few operating controls. A single dial on the control panel lets you select either welder or generator use. For welding, the same dial selects continuous current output over the machine’s 50 to 125 amp range.

The 9 HP Briggs & Stratton gasoline engine controls include a recoil starter, choke, throttle control, and stop switch. See ENGINE OPERATION in the Operation section of this manual for details about starting, stopping, and breaking in the gasoline engine.

DESIGN FEATURES AND

ADVANTAGES

•DC Stick welding (SMAW) process capability with output range from 50 - 125 amps.

•Single-dial current output selection.

•Work and Electrode welding cable mounting termi- nals.

•Separate ground stud for safe connection of case to earth ground. Single 20 amp, 230 volt generator receptacle.

•Duplex 20 amp, 115 volt generator receptacle.

•Integrated generator output overload protection through two 20 amp circuit breakers.

•Welded-tube, full roll cage frame protects engine and generator/welder.

•Lightweight, portable design.

•Briggs & Stratton 9 HP Vanguard® overhead valve, air-cooled gasoline engine.

•Rubber mounting isolates engine and generator from frame to prevent machine “walking” during use.

•Hour meter standard.

•Automatic shutdown for low oil condition.

WELDING CAPABILITY

The WELDANPOWER 125 is rated 125 amps, 25 volts DC at 30% duty cycle on a ten-minute basis. This means that you can load the welder to 125 amps for three minutes out of every ten-minute period. The machine is capable of higher duty cycles at lower out- put currents. For example, you can load the welder to 100 amps for six minutes out of ten for a 60% duty cycle.

The current is continuously variable from 50 to 125 amps DC. The WELDANPOWER 125 can, therefore, weld with all 3/32 and most 1/8 inch diameter Lincoln DC electrodes as well as do DC TIG welding.

LIMITATIONS

•The WELDANPOWER 125 is not recommended for any processes besides those that are normally per- formed using stick welding (SMAW) procedures or TIG welding.

•The WELDANPOWER 125 is not recommended for pipe thawing.

•During welding, generator power is limited to 100 watts, and output voltages can drop from 120 to 80 volts and 240 to 160 volts. Therefore, DO NOT OPERATE ANY SENSITIVE ELECTRICAL EQUIP- MENT WHILE YOU ARE WELDING.
