INSTALLATION
RANGER 300 D AND 300 DLX
A-3
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
It may be necessary to de-rate the welder output at
higher altitudes. Derate the welder output 0.4% for
every 100 ft. (30 m) above 500 ft. (150 m). Some
engine adjustment may be required above 5,000 ft.
(1,500 m). Contact a Kubota Service Representative.
LIFTING
The RANGER 300 weighs approximately 1150
lbs/522 kg. A lift bail is mounted to the machine frame
and should always be used when lifting the machine.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
FALLING EQUIPMENT can cause
injury.
● Do not lift this machine using lift
bale if it is equipped with a heavy
accessory such as trailer or gas
cylinder.
● Lift only with equipment of adequate lifting
capacity.
● Be sure machine is stable when lifting.
The recommended undercarriage for use with this
equipment for in-plant and yard towing by a vehicle is
Lincoln’s K953-1. If the user adapts a non-Lincoln
undercarriage, he must assume responsibility that the
method of attachment and usage does not result in a
safety hazard nor damage the welding equipment.
Some of the factors to be considered are as follows:
1. Design capacity of undercarriage vs. weight of
Lincoln equipment and likely additional attach-
ments.
2. Proper support of, and attachment to, the base of
the welding equipment so there will be no undue
stress to the framework.
3. Proper placement of the equipment on the under-
carriage to insure stability side to side and front to
back when being moved and when standing by
itself while being operated or serviced.
WARNING
4. Typical conditions of use, i.e., travel speed; rough-
ness of surface on which the undercarriage will be
operated; environmental conditions; likely mainte-
nance.
5. Conformance with federal, state and local laws.
