PIPELINER® 200D PERKINS
OIL
This unit is supplied from the factory with the engine
crankcase filled with a high quality SAE 10W/30 oil.
This oil should be acceptable for most typical ambient
temperatures. Consult the engine operation manual
for specific engine manufacturers recommendations.
Upon receipt of the welder, check the engine dipstick to
be sure the oil is at the “full” mark. Add if required. DO
NOT OVERFILL.
FUEL
Fill the fuel tank with the grade of fuel recommended in
the Engine Operatorʼs Manual. Make sure fuel valve on
the sediment bowl and water separator are in the open
position.
COOLING SYSTEM
The radiator has been filled at the factory with a 50-50
mixture of ethylene glycol antifreeze and water. Check
the radiator level and add a 50-50 solution as needed.
(See engine manual or antifreeze container for alter-
nate antifreeze recommendations.)
BATTERY CHARGING
The Pipeliner® 200D is equipped with a wet charged
battery. The charging current is automatically regulat-
ed when the battery is low (after starting the engine) to
a trickle current when the battery is fully charged.
When replacing, jumping, or otherwise connecting the
battery to the battery cables the proper polarity must
be observed. The correct polarity is NEGATIVE
GROUND.
GASES FROM BATTERY can explode.
• Keep sparks, flame and cigarettes
away.
BATTERY ACID can burn eyes and
skin.
• Wear gloves and eye protection and
be careful when boosting, charging
or working near battery.
To prevent EXPLOSION when:
a) Installing a new battery - disconnect the nega-
tive cable from the old battery first and con-
nect the negative cable to the new battery last
b) Connecting a battery charger - remove the bat-
tery from the welder by disconnecting the neg-
ative cable first, then the positive cable and
battery clamp. When reinstalling, connect the
negative cable last.
c) Using a booster - connect the positive lead to
the battery first, then connect the negative lead
to the ground lead on the base.
To prevent ELECTRICAL DAMAGE when:
a) Installing a new battery.
b) Using a booster.
Use correct polarity - Negative Ground.
• To prevent BATTERY DISCHARGE, if you have an
ignition switch, turn it off when engine is not run-
ning.
• To prevent BATTERY BUCKLING, tighten nuts on
battery clamp until snug.
