A. START Position

Rotating the switch to the START position starts the en- gine. Release the switch as soon as the engine starts, and the switch automatically returns to the RUN posi- tion.

B. RUN Position

RUN

When the Engine Control switch is in the RUN position, engine speed remains at governed weld/power speed (1860 rpm).

C. OFF Position

Rotating the Engine Control switch to the OFF position disconnects battery voltage, thereby shutting down the engine.

A/V

WARNING: ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

• Do not touch live electrical parts.

•Do not touch the output terminals when the contactor is energized

•Do not touch welding wire or electrode and work clamp at same time.

If remote amperage or voltage control is desired, make connections to the REMOTE 9 receptacle terminal strip according to Section 4-8, and place the AMPERAGE & VOLTAGE switch in the REMOTE position. When a Re- mote Amperage or Voltage Control is being used, the re- mote control functions as a fine amperage or voltage ad- justment for the AMPERAGE & VOLTAGE ADJUST- MENT control on the welding generator. For example, if the AMPERAGE & VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT control on the welding generator is set at midrange, the Remote Amperage or Voltage Control will provide (from mini- mum to maximum adjustment) fine amperage or voltage adjustment of one half of the welding generator output for the range selected. For complete remote control of the output, rotate the AMPERAGE & VOLTAGE AD- JUSTMENT control to the maximum position.

If remote amperage or voltage is not desired, place the AMPERAGE & VOLTAGE switch in the PANEL posi- tion. Only the AMPERAGE & VOLTAGE ADJUST- MENT control will adjust output.

OUTPUT

(CONTACTOR)

WARNING: ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

• Do not touch live electrical parts.

•Do not touch the output terminals when the contactor is energized.

•Do not touch welding wire or electrode and work clamp at same time.

When the OUTPUT/CONTACTOR switch is in the ON position, open-circuit voltage is present at the weld output terminals for as long as the engine is running.

If the OUTPUT(CONTACTOR) switch is in the ON posi- tion, open-circuit voltage will be present at the output terminals whenever the engine is running.

If remote contactor control by means of a wire feeder or remote device is desired, make connections to the RE- MOTE 9 receptacle or terminal strip 3T according to Section 4-8, and place the OUTPUT(CONTACTOR) switch in the REMOTE position. Open-circuit voltage is present at the weld output terminals whenever the gun switch or remote device is closed.

6-6. SERVICE ENGINE AIR CLEANER LIGHT (Figure 6-1)

This unit is equipped with an engine air cleaner. When the SERVICE ENGINE AIR CLEANER light PL1 comes on, the air cleaner requires servicing (see Section 8-2).

6-7. CHECK ALTERNATOR (Figure 6-1)

The CHECK ALTERNATOR light PL3 comes on if the al- ternator requires servicing. If the light comes on, check for loose or broken engine belt.

6-8. HOUR METER (Figure 6-1)

This unit is equipped with an hour meter. The meter, la- beled ENGINE HOURS, registers the total hours of en- gine operation. This information is useful for routine maintenance on the engine.
