General Inspection Prior to Operation
The TLW-300SS utilizes a welder/AC generator that has
been thoroughly inspected and accepted prior to shipment
from the factory. However, be sure to check for damaged
parts or components, or loose nuts and bolts, which could
have occurred in transit.
Ground
The nut and ground terminal on the welder/AC generator
should always be used to connect to a suitable ground. The
ground path should be of #8 size wire.
Connect the terminal of the ground wire between the lock
washer and the nut and tighten the nut fully. Connect their
end of the wire to a suitable ground.
Circuit Breakers
To protect the welder/AC generator from an overload,
a 2-pole,
42 amp,
main circuit breaker is provided. In addition, three
separate circuit breakers are provided for each receptacle.
Be sure the circuit breakers are in the ‘OFF’ position prior to
starting the engine.
Welding Cable
When welding, use the table below (Table 6) to measure the
optimum amount of voltage and amperes when selecting the
proper welding cable. The relationship between cable length
and sectional area is to keep the line voltage drop within 4V.
