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.
TOWING
The recommended trailer for use with this equipment
for road, in-plant, and yard towing by a vehicle
1
is
Lincoln’s K-953-1. If the user adapts a non-Lincoln
trailer, 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 the trailer vs. weight of the
Lincoln equipment and likely additional attach-
ments.
2. Proper support of and attachment to the base of
the welding equipment so that there will be no
undo stress to the trailer’s framework.
3. Proper alignment of the equipment on the trailer to
insure stability side-to-side and front-to-back when
it is being moved and when standing by itself.
4. Typical conditions of use, such as travel speed,
roughness of the surface on which the trailer will be
operated, and environmental conditions.
5. Proper preventative maintenance of the trailer.
6. Conformance with federal, state, and local laws.
