LOCATION/VENTILATION
The welder should be located to provide an unrestricted
flow of clean, cool air to the cooling air inlets and to avoid
restricting the cooling air outlets. Also, locate the welder
so that the engine exhaust fumes are properly vented to
an outside area.
DO NOT MOUNT OVER COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES.
Where there is a combustible surface directly
under stationary or fixed electrical equipment, that
surface shall be covered with a steel plate at least
.06”(1.6mm) thick, which shall extend not less than
5.90”(150mm) beyond the equipment on all sides.

STACKING
These machines cannot be stacked.
ANGLE OF OPERATION
To achieve optimum engine performance the machine
should be run in a level position. The maximum angle
of operation for the Perkins engine is 30 degrees in all
directions. If the engine is to be operated at an angle,
provisions must be made for checking and maintaining
the oil level at the normal (FULL) oil capacity in the
engine crankcase. When operating the welder at an
angle, the effective fuel capacity will be slightly less
than the specified 22.5 gallons.
