GAW-135H — CONTROLS AND INDICATORS

1. Engine ON/OFF Switch – Place this switch in the "ON" position to start the engine.To turn-off the engine place this switch in the "OFF" position.

2. Current Selector Knob – Place this knob in the desired setting when welding is required. There are 6 selectable settings that range from 40 amps to 135 amps.

3.Connect the welder electrodes to these terminals. Please note the polarity of the electrodes when connecting them to the welder.

4. Main Circuit Breaker – This 2-pole 15 amp breaker protects the generator from short circuiting or overloading. When starting the generator always have the circuit breaker placed in the "OFF" position.

5. Idle Control Switch – This unit is provided with an automatic idle control for noise suppression and reduced fuel consumption.The automatic idle control automatically engages under a no-load condition. With the automatic idle control switched “ON”, the engine revolutions will automatically drop to about 2600 rpm (low-speed operation) within 3 seconds after the load stops. When the operation is resumed, the engine speed is automatically increased to about 3600 rpm (high-speed operation) as soon as the load is connected.

6. GFCI Receptacle – This receptacle will provide 120V at all times.

7. Ground – This ground connection point should be connect to a good earth ground (ground rod).

8.Engine Oil Filler Cap – Remove this cap/dipstick when the adding of engine oil is required. See Table 4 for recommended type engine oil.

9.Engine Oil Drain Plug – Remove this drain plug when draining of the oil from the engine crankcase is required. Fill with recommeded type oil as listed in Table 4.

10. Recoil Starter (pull rope) – Manual-starting method. Pull the starter grip until resistance is felt, then pull briskly and smoothly.

11. Fuel Cock Lever – Turn this lever downward to start (down)the flow of fuel to the carburetor. Turn upward to stop (up) the flow of fuel.

12. Air Cleaner – Prevents dirt and other debris from entering the fuel system. Remove wing-nut on top of air filter cannister to gain access to filter element. NEVER run the engine without an air cleaner.

13. Choke Lever – Used for starting the engine. Close the choke lever when starting a cold engine or in cold weather conditions.The choke enriches the fuel mixture. Open the choke lever if starting a warm engine or in warm weather conditions.

14. Fuel Tank Cap – Remove this cap to add unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank. Replenish with clean unleaded gasoline. Make sure cap is tightened securely. DO NOT over fill. Fuel tank capacity is 1.85 gallons (7 liters).

15. Fuel Gauge – Read this gauge to determine when fuel is low.

16. Spark Plug – Provides spark to the ignition system. Set spark plug gap to 0.6 - 0.7 mm (0.024 - 0.028 inch). Clean spark plug once a week.

17. Muffler/Heat Shield – Used to reduce noise and emissions. NEVER touch this heat shield when the generator/welder is in use. Always allow time for the generator to cool down before performing maintenance.

This HONDA engine is equipped with a low oil shutdown capability. A

NOTE built in sensor will automatically turn off the engine should the oil level fall below a safe operating condition. Make sure the generator is placed

on level ground. Placing the generator/welder on level ground will ensure that the low oil sensor will function properly.
