19. Oil Filter – Provides oil filtering for the engine.
20. Hour Meter – Indicates number of hours machine has
been in use or hours engine was run.
21. Current Control (CC) Adjustment Knob – Use this
control to adjust the welding current between 50 to 225
amps. This function will not work in the CV mode.
22. Voltage Control (CV) Adjustment Knob – Use this
control to adjust the welding voltage between 15 to 28 V.
This function will not work in the CC mode.
23. Welding Type (Wire/Stick) Selector Switch (CV/CC) –
Turn this selector switch toeither CV or CC for welding.
DO NOT turn this switch under load.
24. Current Range Selector Switch (CC) – Turn this selector
switch to either low or high for welding. DO NOT turn this
switch under load.
25. Main Circuit Breaker – This 2-pole circuit breaker provides
circuit protection (250V @25 amps) for the Electric Parts
Assembly.
26. Circuit Protector Circuit Breaker – This single pole circuit
breaker provides circuit protection (120V @20 amps) for
the G.F.C.I receptacle.
z Low Oil Pressure Lamp - lights to indicate that
the engine pressure has fallen below acceptable
level.
z High Water Temperature Lamp - lights to indicate
that the water temperature has exceeded 239
°F.
z Electrical System Lamp - lights when the electrical
system is not charging properly.
z Pre-heat Lamp- when the key switch is set to the
pre-heat position, this lamp turns on. When the lamp
turns off, the key switch can be turned to the start
position.
29. Ignition Switch – With key inserted, turn clockwise to
start engine.
30. Positive Welding Output Terminal – Connect the
welding cable to this terminal. Select the appropriate
polarities according to the application. See Table 7.
31. Negative Welding Output Terminal – Connect the
negative cable of the welding source to this terminal. Select
the appropriate polarities according to the application. See
Table 7.
32. Receptacle G.F.C.I. – This receptacle provides 120 volts
output at 20 amps.
33. Receptacle – Provides 120 volts output at 25 amps.
