The AIR VANTAGE® 500 KUBOTA is a diesel engine-
driven welding power source. The machine uses a
brush type alternating current generator for DC multi-
purpose welding, for 120/240 VAC single phase and
240V three phase auxiliary standby power. The AIR
VANTAGE® 500 KUBOTA also has a rotary screw 60
cfm air compressor built in. The DC welding control sys-
tem uses state of the art Chopper Technology for
superior welding performance.

Start the engine and set the IDLER control switch to the
desired operating mode. Full power is available regard-
less of the welding control settings providing no welding
current is being drawn.

The engine will use a small amount of oil during its
“break-in” period. The break-in period is about 50 run-
ning hours.Check the oil every four hours during
break-in.
Change the oil after the first 50 hours of operation and
every 200 hours thereafter. Change the oil filter at
each oil change.

essary).
• See Engine Owner’s Manual for specific oil and
coolant recommendations.
