COOLING SYSTEM
The cooling system 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 your engine manual or antifreeze con-
tainer for alternate antifreeze recommendations.)
MUFFLER
This welder is supplied with an adjustable rain cap for
the muffler. Install the rain cap using the clamp provid-
ed with the outlet facing away from the direction in
which this unit will be transported. This will minimize
the amount of water and debris that could enter the
muffler during transportation.
EXHAUST SPARK ARRESTER
Some federal, state or local laws may require that
gasoline or diesel engines be equipped with exhaust
spark arresters when they are operated in certain loca-
tions where unarrested sparks may present a fire haz-
ard. The standard mufflers included with these welders
do not qualify as a spark arrester. When required by
local regulations, suitable spark arresters must be
installed and properly maintained.
Use of an incorrect arrester may lead to engine dam-
age or performance loss. Contact the engine manu-
facturer for specific recommendations.
TRAILER
If you use a non-Lincoln trailer, you 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 consid-
ered are as follows:
1. Design capacity of the trailer vs. the weight of the
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 trailer to
ensure stability side to side and front to back. This
includes when being moved and when standing by
itself for operation or service.
4. Typical conditions of use, such as travel speed,
roughness of the surfaces where the trailer will be
used, environmental conditions, likely maintenance.
5. Conformance with federal, state, and local laws.
Consult applicable federal, state, and local laws
about specific requirements for use on public high-
ways.
