The RANGER® 305D is shipped with the engine
crankcase filled with high quality SAE 10W-30 Oil that
meets classification CG-4 or CH-4 for diesel engines.
Check the oil level before starting the engine. If it is
not up to the full mark on the dip stick, add oil as
required. Check the oil level every four hours of run-
ning time during the first 50 running hours. Refer to
the engine Operator’s Manual for specific oil recom-
mendations and break-in information. The oil change
interval is dependent on the quality of the oil and the
operating environment. Refer to the Engine Operator’s
Manual for more details on the proper service and
maintenance intervals.

The recommended trailer for use with this equipment for road,
in-plant and yard towing by a vehicle(1) is Lincoln’s K957-1. If
the user adapts a non-Lincoln trailer, he must assume responsi-
bility 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 trailer vs. weight of Lincoln equipment and
likely additional attachments.
2. Proper support of, and attachment to, the base of the weld-
ing equipment so there will be no undue stress to the frame-
work.
3. Proper placement of the equipment on the trailer to insure
stability side to side and front to back when being moved
and when standing by itself while being operated or ser-
viced.
4. Typical conditions of use, i.e., travel speed; roughness of sur-
face on which the trailer will be operated; environmental con-
ditions; like maintenance.
5. Conformance with federal, state and local laws.
