WARNING

Mar ‘95

ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDSmay be dangerous

2.a. Electric current flowing through any conductor causes localized Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF). Welding current creates EMF fields around welding cables and welding machines

2.b. EMF fields may interfere with some pacemakers, andwelders having a pacemaker should consult their physicianbefore welding.

2.c. Exposure to EMF fields in welding may have other healtheffects which are now not known.

2.d. All welders should use the following procedures in order tominimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit:

2.d.1. Route the electrode and work cables together - Securethem with tape when possible.

2.d.2. Never coil the electrode lead around your body.

2.d.3. Do not place your body between the electrode andwork cables. If the electrode cable is on your right side, the work cable should also be on your right side.

2.d.4. Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close aspossible to the area being welded.

2.d.5. Do not work next to welding power source.

1.h. To avoid scalding, do not remove theradiator pressure cap when the engine ishot.

ARC RAYS can burn.4.a. Use a shield with the proper filter and cover

plates to protect your eyes from sparks andthe rays of the arc when welding or observingopen arc welding. Headshield and filter lensshould conform to ANSI Z87. I standards.

4.b. Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistantmaterial to protect your skin and that of your helpers fromthe arc rays.

4.c. Protect other nearby personnel with suitable, non-flammablescreening and/or warn them not to watch the arc nor exposethemselves to the arc rays or to hot spatter or metal.

ELECTRIC SHOCK cankill.3.a. The electrode and work (or ground) circuits

are electrically “hot” when the welder is on.Do not touch these “hot” parts with your bareskin or wet clothing. Wear dry, hole-free

gloves to insulate hands.

3.b. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulation.Make certain the insulation is large enough to cover your fullarea of physical contact with work and ground.

In addition to the normal safety precautions, if weldingmust be performed under electrically hazardousconditions (in damp locations or while wearing wetclothing; on metal structures such as floors, gratings orscaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting,kneeling or lying, if there is a high risk of unavoidable oraccidental contact with the workpiece or ground) usethe following equipment:

• Semiautomatic DC Constant Voltage (Wire) Welder.• DC Manual (Stick) Welder.• AC Welder with Reduced Voltage Control.

3.c. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the electrode,electrode reel, welding head, nozzle or semiautomaticwelding gun are also electrically “hot”.

3.d. Always be sure the work cable makes a good electricalconnection with the metal being welded. The connectionshould be as close as possible to the area being welded.

3.e. Ground the work or metal to be welded to a good electrical(earth) ground.

3.f. Maintain the electrode holder, work clamp, welding cable andwelding machine in good, safe operating condition. Replacedamaged insulation.

3.g. Never dip the electrode in water for cooling.

3.h. Never simultaneously touch electrically “hot” parts ofelectrode holders connected to two welders because voltagebetween the two can be the total of the open circuit voltageof both welders.

3.i. When working above floor level, use a safety belt to protectyourself from a fall should you get a shock.

3.j. Also see Items 6.c. and 8.

FUMES AND GASEScan be dangerous.5.a. Welding may produce fumes and gases

hazardous to health. Avoid breathing thesefumes and gases.When welding, keepyour head out of the fume. Use enoughventilation and/or exhaust at the arc to keep

fumes and gases away from the breathing zone. Whenwelding with electrodes which require specialventilation such as stainless or hard facing (seeinstructions on container or MSDS) or on lead orcadmium plated steel and other metals or coatingswhich produce highly toxic fumes, keep exposure aslow as possible and below Threshold Limit Values (TLV)using local exhaust or mechanical ventilation. Inconfined spaces or in some circumstances, outdoors, arespirator may be required. Additional precautions arealso required when welding on galvanized steel.

5.b. Do not weld in locations near chlorinated hydrocarbon vaporscoming from degreasing, cleaning or spraying operations.The heat and rays of the arc can react with solvent vapors toform phosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritating prod-ucts.

5.c. Shielding gases used for arc welding can displace air andcause injury or death. Always use enough ventilation,especially in confined areas, to insure breathing air is safe.

5.d. Read and understand the manufacturer’s instructions for thisequipment and the consumables to be used, including thematerial safety data sheet (MSDS) and follow youremployer’s safety practices. MSDS forms are available fromyour welding distributor or from the manufacturer.

5.e. Also see item 1.b.

FOR ELECTRICALLYpowered equipment.

8.a. Turn off input power using the disconnectswitch at the fuse box before working onthe equipment.

8.b. Install equipment in accordance with the U.S. NationalElectrical Code, all local codes and the manufacturer’srecommendations.

8.c. Ground the equipment in accordance with the U.S. NationalElectrical Code and the manufacturer’s recommendations.

CYLINDER may explodeif damaged.7.a. Use only compressed gas cylinders

containing the correct shielding gas for theprocess used and properly operatingregulators designed for the gas and

pressure used. All hoses, fittings, etc. should be suitable forthe application and maintained in good condition.

7.b. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securelychained to an undercarriage or fixed support.

7.c. Cylinders should be located:• Away from areas where they may be struck or subjected tophysical damage.

• A safe distance from arc welding or cutting operations andany other source of heat, sparks, or flame.

7.d. Never allow the electrode, electrode holder or any otherelectrically “hot” parts to touch a cylinder.

7.e. Keep your head and face away from the cylinder valve outletwhen opening the cylinder valve.

7.f. Valve protection caps should always be in place and handtight except when the cylinder is in use or connected foruse.

7.g. Read and follow the instructions on compressed gascylinders, associated equipment, and CGA publication P-l,“Precautions for Safe Handling of Compressed Gases inCylinders,” available from the Compressed Gas Association1235 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202.

WELDING SPARKS cancause fire or explosion.6.a. Remove fire hazards from the welding area.

If this is not possible, cover them to preventthe welding sparks from starting a fire.Remember that welding sparks and hot

materials from welding can easily go through small cracksand openings to adjacent areas. Avoid welding nearhydraulic lines. Have a fire extinguisher readily available.

6.b. Where compressed gases are to be used at the job site,special precautions should be used to prevent hazardoussituations. Refer to “Safety in Welding and Cutting” (ANSIStandard Z49.1) and the operating information for theequipment being used.

6.c. When not welding, make certain no part of the electrodecircuit is touching the work or ground. Accidental contactcan cause overheating and create a fire hazard.

6.d. Do not heat, cut or weld tanks, drums or containers until theproper steps have been taken to insure that such procedureswill not cause flammable or toxic vapors from substancesinside. They can cause an explosion even though they havebeen “cleaned”. For information, purchase “RecommendedSafe Practices for the Preparation for Welding and Cutting ofContainers and Piping That Have Held HazardousSubstances”, AWS F4.1 from the American Welding Society(see address above).

6.e. Vent hollow castings or containers before heating, cutting orwelding. They may explode.

6.f. Sparks and spatter are thrown from the welding arc. Wear oilfree protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt,cuffless trousers, high shoes and a cap over your hair. Wearear plugs when welding out of position or in confined places.Always wear safety glasses with side shields when in awelding area.

6.g. Connect the work cable to the work as close to the weldingarea as practical. Work cables connected to the buildingframework or other locations away from the welding areaincrease the possibility of the welding current passingthrough lifting chains, crane cables or other alternate cir-cuits. This can create fire hazards or overheat lifting chainsor cables until they fail.

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉPour votre propre protection lire et observer toutes les instructionset les précautions de sûreté specifiques qui parraissent dans cemanuel aussi bien que les précautions de sûreté générales suiv-antes:

Sûreté Pour Soudage A L’Arc1. Protegez-vous contre la secousse électrique:

a. Les circuits à l’électrode et à la piéce sont sous tensionquand la machine à souder est en marche. Eviter toujourstout contact entre les parties sous tension et la peau nueou les vétements mouillés. Porter des gants secs et sanstrous pour isoler les mains.

b. Faire trés attention de bien s’isoler de la masse quand onsoude dans des endroits humides, ou sur un planchermetallique ou des grilles metalliques, principalement dans les positions assis ou couché pour lesquelles une grandepartie du corps peut être en contact avec la masse.

c. Maintenir le porte-électrode, la pince de masse, le câblede soudage et la machine à souder en bon et sûr étatdefonctionnement.

d.Ne jamais plonger le porte-électrode dans l’eau pour lerefroidir.

e. Ne jamais toucher simultanément les parties sous tensiondes porte-électrodes connectés à deux machines à souderparce que la tension entre les deux pinces peut être letotal de la tension à vide des deux machines.

f. Si on utilise la machine à souder comme une source decourant pour soudage semi-automatique, ces precautionspour le porte-électrode s’applicuent aussi au pistolet desoudage.

2. Dans le cas de travail au dessus du niveau du sol, se protégercontre les chutes dans le cas ou on recoit un choc. Ne jamaisenrouler le câble-électrode autour de n’importe quelle partiedu corps.

3. Un coup d’arc peut être plus sévère qu’un coup de soliel,donc:

a. Utiliser un bon masque avec un verre filtrant appropriéainsi qu’un verre blanc afin de se protéger les yeux du ray-onnement de l’arc et des projections quand on soude ouquand on regarde l’arc.

b. Porter des vêtements convenables afin de protéger lapeau de soudeur et des aides contre le rayonnement del‘arc.

c. Protéger l’autre personnel travaillant à proximité ausoudage à l’aide d’écrans appropriés et non-inflammables.

4. Des gouttes de laitier en fusion sont émises de l’arc desoudage. Se protéger avec des vêtements de protection libresde l’huile, tels que les gants en cuir, chemise épaisse, pan-talons sans revers, et chaussures montantes.

5. Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité dans la zone desoudage. Utiliser des lunettes avec écrans lateraux dans les

zones où l’on pique le laitier.

6. Eloigner les matériaux inflammables ou les recouvrir afin deprévenir tout risque d’incendie dû aux étincelles.

7. Quand on ne soude pas, poser la pince à une endroit isolé dela masse. Un court-circuit accidental peut provoquer unéchauffement et un risque d’incendie.

8. S’assurer que la masse est connectée le plus prés possiblede la zone de travail qu’il est pratique de le faire. Si on placela masse sur la charpente de la construction ou d’autresendroits éloignés de la zone de travail, on augmente le risquede voir passer le courant de soudage par les chaines de lev-age, câbles de grue, ou autres circuits. Cela peut provoquerdes risques d’incendie ou d’echauffement des chaines et descâbles jusqu’à ce qu’ils se rompent.

9. Assurer une ventilation suffisante dans la zone de soudage.Ceci est particuliérement important pour le soudage de tôlesgalvanisées plombées, ou cadmiées ou tout autre métal quiproduit des fumeés toxiques.

10. Ne pas souder en présence de vapeurs de chlore provenantd’opérations de dégraissage, nettoyage ou pistolage. Lachaleur ou les rayons de l’arc peuvent réagir avec les vapeursdu solvant pour produire du phosgéne (gas fortement toxique)ou autres produits irritants.

11. Pour obtenir de plus amples renseignements sur la sûreté,voir le code “Code for safety in welding and cutting” CSAStandard W 117.2-1974.

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ POURLES MACHINES À SOUDER ÀTRANSFORMATEUR ET ÀREDRESSEUR

1. Relier à la terre le chassis du poste conformement au code del’électricité et aux recommendations du fabricant. Le dispositifde montage ou la piece à souder doit être branché à unebonne mise à la terre.

2. Autant que possible, I’installation et l’entretien du poste seronteffectués par un électricien qualifié.

3. Avant de faires des travaux à l’interieur de poste, la debranch-er à l’interrupteur à la boite de fusibles.

4. Garder tous les couvercles et dispositifs de sûreté à leurplace.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

MACHINE GROUNDINGBecause this portable engine driven welder or genera-tor creates it’s own power, it is not necessary to con-nect it’s frame to an earth ground, unless the machineis connected to premises wiring (your home, shop,etc.).

To prevent dangerous electric shock, other equipmentto which this engine driven welder supplies powermust:

• Be grounded to the frame of the welder using a grounded type plug, or

• Be double insulated.

When this welder is mounted on a truck or trailer, it’sframe must be securely connected to the metal frameof the vehicle.

Where this engine driven welder is connected topremises wiring such as that in your home or shop,it’s frame must be connected to the system earthground. See further connection instructions in thesection entitled “Standby Power Connections”, as wellas the article on grounding in the latest U.S. NationalElectrical Code and the local code.

In general, if the machine is to be grounded, it shouldbe connected with a #8 or larger copper wire to asolid earth ground such as a metal water pipe goinginto the ground for at least ten feet and having noinsulated joints, or to the metal framework of a build-ing which has been effectively grounded. The U.S.National Electrical Code lists a number of alternatemeans of grounding electrical equipment. A machinegrounding stud marked with the symbol is provid-ed on the front of the welder.

SPARK ARRESTERSome federal, state, or local laws may require thatgasoline engines be equipped with exhaust sparkarresters when they are operated in certain locationswhere unarrested sparks may present a fire hazard.The standard muffler included with this welder doesnot qualify as a spark arrester. When required bylocal regulations, the K894-1 spark arrester must beinstalled and properly maintained.

An incorrect arrester may lead to damage to theengine or adversely affect performance.------------------------------------------------------------------------

UNDERCARRIAGESThe recommended trailer for use with this equipmentfor in plant and yard towing by a vehicle (1) isLincoln’s K768-2. If the user adapts a non-Lincolnundercarriage, he must assume responsibility that themethod of attachment and usage does not result in asafety hazard nor damage the welding equipment.

Some of the factors to be considered are as follows:

• Design capacity of undercarriage vs. weight ofLincoln equipment and likely additional attach-ments

• Proper support of, and attached to, the base of thewelding equipment so there will be no undue stressto the frame work.

• Proper placement of the equipment on the under-carriage to ensure stability side to side and front toback when being moved and when standing byitself while being operated or serviced.

Do not attempt to use this equipment until youhave thoroughly read the engine manufacturer’smanual supplied with your welder. It includesimportant safety precautions, detailed enginestarting, operating and maintenance instructions,and parts lists.------------------------------------------------------------------------

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.• Do not touch electrically live parts orelectrode with skin or wet clothing.

• Insulate yourself from work andground

• Always wear dry insulating gloves.--------------------------------------------------------

ENGINE EXHAUST can kill.• Use in open, well ventilated areas orvent exhaust outside.

--------------------------------------------------------

MOVING PARTS can injure.• Do not operate with doors open or

guards off.• Stop engine before servicing.• Keep away from moving parts.--------------------------------------------------------

See additional warning information atfront of this operator’s manual.

• Typical conditions of use, i.e., travel speed; rough-ness of surface on which the trailer will be operated;environmental conditions; like maintenance.

• Conformance with federal, state and local laws.(1)(1) Consult applicable federal, state and local laws

regarding specific requirements for use on publichighways.

PRE-OPERATION SERVICE

READ the engine operating and maintenanceinstructions supplied with this machine.

OilThe Ranger 9 is shipped with the engine crankcasefilled with SAE 10W-30 oil. Check the oil level beforestarting the engine. If it is not up to the full mark on thedip stick, add oil as required. Make certain that the oilfiller cap is tightened securely. Refer to the engineOwner’s Manual for specific oil recommendations.

FuelFill the fuel tank with clean, fresh, lead-free gasoline.The capacity is approximately 9 gallons (34 liters).Observe fuel gauge while filling to prevent overfilling.

BATTERY CONNECTIONSThis welder is shipped with the negative battery cabledisconnected. Make sure that the Engine Switch is inthe “STOP” position and attach the disconnectedcable securely to the negative battery terminal beforeattempting to operate the machine. If the battery isdischarged and does not have enough power to startthe engine, see the battery charging instructions in theBattery section.

WELDING OUTPUT CABLESWith the engine off, connect the electrode and workcables to the studs provided. These connectionsshould be checked periodically and tightened if neces-sary. Loose connections will result in overheating ofthe output studs.

When welding at a considerable distance from thewelder, be sure you use ample size welding cables.Listed below are copper cable sizes recommended forthe rated current and duty cycle. Lengths stipulatedare the distance from the welder to work and back tothe welder again. Cable sizes are increased forgreater lengths primarily for the purpose of minimizingcable voltage drop.

LOCATION/VENTILATIONThe welder should be located to provide an unrestrict-ed flow of clean, cool air to the cooling air inlets and toavoid heated air coming out of the back of the welderrecirculating back to the cooling air inlets below theexhaust. Also, locate the welder so that the engineexhaust fumes are properly vented to an outside area.

Damage to fuel tank may cause fire or explosion.Do Not drill holes in the Ranger 9 base or weld tothe Ranger 9 base.------------------------------------------------------------------------

CAUTION

GASOLINE fuel can cause fire or explosion.-• Stop engine while fueling.• Do not smoke when fueling.• Do not overfill tank.• Keep sparks and flame away from

fuel tank.• Wipe up spilled fuel and allow fumes to clear

before starting engine.

ANGLE OF OPERATIONInternal combustion engines are designed to run in alevel condition which is where the optimum perfor-mance is achieved. The maximum angle of operationfor the engine is 15 degrees from horizontal in anydirection. If the engine is to be operated at an angle,provisions must be made for checking and maintain-ing the oil at the normal (FULL) oil capacity in thecrankcase in a level condition.

When operating the welder at an angle, the effectivefuel capacity will be slightly less than the specified 10gallons.

HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATIONIf the Ranger 9 will be consistently operated at alti-tudes above 5000ft.(1524m), a carburetor jetdesigned for high altitudes should be installed. Thiswill result in better fuel economy, cleaner exhaust,and longer spark plug life. It will not give increasedpower which is decreased at higher altitudes. Enginehorsepower is reduced by 3.5% per 1000ft.(304.8m)for altitudes above 377ft.(114.9m).

Do not operate a Ranger 9 with a high altitude jetinstalled at altitudes below 5000ft.(1529m). Thiswill result in the engine running too lean andresult in higher engine operating temperatureswhich can shorten engine life.-----------------------------------------------------------------------

High altitude jet kits are available from the enginemanufacturer. Contact your local Onan, or KohlerAuthorized Dealer.

Muffler Relocation

Shut off welder and allow muffler to cool beforetouching muffler.

The Ranger 9 is shipped with the exhaust comingout on the left side. The exhaust can be changedto the opposite side by removing the two screwsthat hold the exhaust port cover in place andinstalling the cover on the opposite side.

(Operating the Ranger 9 without the cover inplace will result in a higher noise level and noincrease in machine output.)

High Frequency Generator for TIG weld-ing applications

The K930-1 TIG Module is an accessory that provideshigh frequency and shielding gas control for AC andDC GTAW (TIG) welding. See IM528 supplied withthe TIG Module for installations instructions.

Note: The TIG Module does not require the use of ahigh frequency bypass capacitor. If any other high fre-quency accessary is used with the Ranger 9, abypass capacitor (Order Kit T12246) must be installedin the Ranger 9.

REMOTE OUTPUT CONTROLThe Ranger 9 has a 6-pin and a 14-pin connector.These connectors are located above the output studs.The 6-pin connector is intended to be used with theoptional K857 Remote Output Control or in the case ofTIG welding applications, with the Foot or HandAmptrol. The 14-pin connector is used to connect awire feeder control cable. If the wire feeder has a built-in power source output control, do not connect aremote output control to the 6-pin connector. Whenremote output control is used, the output control tog-gle switch is to be set at “CONTROL REMOTE”.

AUXILIARY POWERThe Ranger 9 can provide up to 9,000 watts of115/230 volts AC, single phase 60Hz power for contin-uous use. The front of the machine includes threereceptacles for connecting the AC power plugs ; one50 amp 115/230 volt NEMA 14-50R receptacle andtwo 20 amp 115 volt NEMA 5-20R receptacles.Do not connect any plugs that connect to the powerreceptacles in parallel.

Start the engine and set the “IDLER” control switch tothe desired operating mode. Set the “CONTROL” to10. Voltage is now correct at the receptacles for auxil-iary power.

115/230 VOLT DUAL VOLTAGE RECEPTACLEThe 115/230 volt receptacle can supply up to 40 ampsof 230 volt power to a two wire circuit, up to 40 ampsof 115 volt power from each side of a three wire circuit(up to 80 amps total). Do not connect the 115 volt cir-cuits in parallel. Current sensing for the automatic idlefeature is only in one leg of the three wire circuit asshown.

A-7INSTALLATION

RANGER 9

115V DUPLEX RECEPTACLEThe 115V auxiliary power receptacles should only beused with three wire grounded type plugs or approveddouble insulated tools with two wire plugs.

The current rating of any plug used with the systemmust be at least equal to the current load through theassociated receptacle ( Refer to Tables l and ll ). Donot attempt to connect power receptacles in parallel.

MOTOR STARTINGMost 1.5 hp AC single phase motors can be started ifthere is no load on the motor or other load connectedto the machine, since the full load current rating of a1.5 hp motor is approximately 20 amperes (10amperes for 230 volt motors). The motor may be runat full load when plugged into only one side of theduplex receptacle. Larger motors through 2 hp can berun provided the receptacle rating as previously stat-ed is not exceeded. This may necessitate 230V oper-ation only.

STANDBY POWER CONNECTIONS

The Ranger 9 is suitable for temporary, standby, oremergency power using the engine manufacturer’s rec-ommended maintenance schedule.

The Ranger 9 can be permanently installed as a stand-by power unit for 230V-3 wire, single phase 40 ampereservice.

(Connections must be made by a licensed electri-cian who can determine how the 115/230V powercan be adapted to the particular installation andcomply with all applicable electrical codes.) Thefollowing information can be used as a guide by theelectrician for most applications (refer also to theconnection diagram shown )

IMPORTANT : When the Ranger 9 is connected to a230 volt, 3-wire line, the unit should be operated withthe idler switch in the “HIGH” idle position to avoid loadsensing problems. If the machine is set for automaticidle, the 230 volt circuit will sense loads and cause theengine to accelerate to high idle. However, since onlyone line of the circuit senses current, 115 volt powerdrawn from only one line to neutral may result in theengine not going to high idle.

WARNING

• Install a double pole, double throw switch betweenthe power company meter and the premisesdisconnect.Switch rating must be the same or greater thanthe customer’s premises disconnect and serviceovercurrent protection.

• Take necessary steps to assure load is limited tothe capacity of the Ranger 9 by installing a 40 amp230V double pole circuit breaker. Maximumrated load for the 230V auxiliary is 40 amperes. Loading above 40 amperes will reduce outputvoltage below the allowable -10% of ratedvoltage which may damage appliances or othermotor-driven equipment.

• Install a 50 amp 115/230V plug (NEMA type 14-50)to the Double Pole Circuit Breaker using No. 8, 4conductor cable of the desired length. SeeAccessories Section for (The 50 amp 115/230Vplug kit.)

• Plug this cable into the 50 amp 115/230 V receptacle on the Ranger 9 case front.

* Each duplex receptacle is limited to 20 amps.* * Not to exceed 35A per 115 VAC branch circuit when splitting the 230 VAC output.

WELDING PROCESSESSTICK (Constant Current) WeldingConnect welding cables to the "TO WORK” and"ELECTRODE” studs. Start the engine. Set the"POLARITY” switch to the desired polarity. Set theoutput “CONTROL” or remote output control to max(10) and the “RANGE” switch to the setting that isclosest to the recommended current for the electrodebeing used and make a trial weld. A fine adjustment ofthe welding can be made by adjusting the output“CONTROL” or remote control. For the best arc stabil-ity, always use setting that results in the highest set-ting of the output or remote control and the lowest set-ting of the “RANGE” switch.

The Ranger 9 can be used with a broad range of ACand DC stick electrodes. See “Welding Tips 1”included with the Ranger 9 for electrodes within therating of this unit and recommended welding currentsof each. See the following table for welding currentranges:

CURRENT RANGES ( AC and DC STICKWELDING -5 to 10 ON CONTROL DIAL)

TIG (Constant Current) WeldingThe Ranger 9 can be used in a wide variety of AC andDC Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding applications forAC TIG welding up to 200 amps and DC TIG weldingup to 250 amps.

The K930-1 TIG Module installed on a Ranger 9 pro-vides high frequency and shielding gas control for ACand DC GTAW (TIG) welding processes. The TIGModule allows full range output control. After flow timeis adjustable from 0 to 55 seconds.

When using the Ranger 9 for AC TIG welding ofaluminum, the TIG Module is to be set for CONTINU-OUS HF. The following settings and electrodes arerecommended:

When AC TIG welding, the actual maximum weldingcurrent is 40 to 80 amps higher than the currentmarked on the RANGE SWITCH dial. This is a resultof a lower effective reactance due to the natural rectifi-cation that occurs with the AC TIG welding process.

WIRE FEED (Constant Voltage) Welding

The Ranger 9 can be used with a broad range of flux-cored wire (Innershield and Outershield) electrodesand solid wires for MIG welding. (gas metal arc welding)

When using a wire feeder with contactor control, theelectrode will be “cold” until the gun trigger is pressed.To start the welding process, position the gun andclose the gun trigger. The contactor will close, the arcwill be initiated and the engine will accelerate to fullspeed. To stop welding, release the gun trigger andpull the gun away from the work. With the “IDLER”SWITCH” in the “AUTO” position, the engine will goback to low idle in approximately 12 seconds (when noauxiliary power is drawn).

NOTE: The LN-7 and the LN-8 must operate in the “HIGH” idle position.

RANGER 9

Have qualified personnel do the maintenancework. Turn the engine off before working insidethe machine. In some cases, it may be necessaryto remove safety guards to perform requiredmaintenance. Remove guards only whennecessary and replace them when the mainte-nance requiring their removal is complete.Always use the greatest care when working nearmoving parts.

Do not put your hands near the engine coolingblower fan. If a problem cannot be corrected byfollowing the instructions, take the machine tothe nearest Lincoln Field Service Shop.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.• Do not touch electrically live parts or

electrode with skin or wet clothing.• Insulate yourself from work and

ground• Always wear dry insulating gloves.

------------------------------------------------------------------------ENGINE EXHAUST can kill.• Use in open, well ventilated areas or

vent exhaust outside.

------------------------------------------------------------------------MOVING PARTS can injure.• Do not operate with doors open or

guards off.• Stop engine before servicing.• Keep away from moving parts.--------------------------------------------------------

See additional warning informationthroughout this operator’s manual and the Engine manual as well.

ENGINE ADJUSTMENTS

OVERSPEED IS HAZARDOUSThe maximum allowable high idle speed for thismachine is 3750RPM, no load. DO NOT tamperwith governor components or setting or make anyother adjustments to increase the maximumspeed. Severe personal injury and damage to themachine can result if operated at speeds abovemaximum.

------------------------------------------------------------------------Adjustments to the engine are to be made only by aLincoln Service Center or an authorized Field ServiceShop.

D-1MAINTENANCED-1

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE• At the end of each day’s use, refill the fuel tank to

minimize moisture condensation in the tank. Running out of fuel tends to draw dirt into the fuelsystem. Also, check the crankcase oil level andadd oil if indicated.

• OIL - Maintenance schedule for changing the oiland oil filter after break-in:

The above schedule is for normal operating condi-tions. More frequent oil changes are required withdusty, high temperature, and other severe operatingconditions. Refer to the maintenance section of theEngine Owner’s Manual for more information.

Make certain that the oil filler cap is securely tight-ened after checking or adding oil. If the cap is nottight, oil consumption can increase significantlywhich may be evidenced by white smoke comingfrom the exhaust.------------------------------------------------------------------------Engine life will be reduced if the oil and oil filterare not changed according to the manufacturer’srecommendation.

ENGINE OIL CHANGEDrain the oil while the engine is warm to assure rapidand complete draining.

• Remove the oil filler cap and dipstick. Remove theyellow cap from the oil drain valve and attach theflexible drain tube supplied with the machine. Pushin and twist the drain valve counterclockwise. Pullthe valve out and drain the oil into a suitable contain-er.

• Close the drain valve by pushing in and twistingclockwise. Replace the yellow cap.

• Refill to the upper limit mark on the dipstick with therecommended oil. Tighten the oil filler cap securely.

Use 4-stroke motor oil that meets or exceeds therequirements for API service classification SG or SH.Always check the API SERVICE label on the oil con-tainer to be sure it includes the letters SG or SH.SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general, all-temper-ature use, -5 F to 104 F (-20 C to 40 C). For the Onanengine, it is recommended that SAE 30 oil be usedabove 82 F (27 C). See Engine Owner’s Manual for more specific infor-mation on oil viscosity recommendations.Wash your hands with soap and water after handlingused oil.Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that iscompatible with the environment. We suggest youtake it in a sealed container to your local service sta-tion or recycling center for reclamation. Do not throw itin the trash, pour it on the ground or down a drain.

OIL FILTER CHANGE• Drain the engine oil.

• Remove the oil filter, and drain the oil into a suitablecontainer. Discard the used oil filter.

• Clean the filter mounting base, and coat the gasketof the new oil filter with clean engine oil.

• Screw on the new oil filter by hand, until the gasketcontacts the filter mounting base, then use an oil fil-ter socket tool to tighten the filter an additional 1/2 to7/8 turn.

• Refill the crankcase with the specified amount of therecommended oil. Reinstall the oil filler cap.

• Start the engine and check for oil filter leaks.

• Stop the engine, and check the oil level. If neces-sary, add oil to the upper limit mark on

RANGER 9

SLIP RINGS A slight amount of darkening and wear of the slip ringsand brushes is normal. Brushes should be inspectedwhen a general overhaul is necessary. If brushes areto be replaced, clean slip rings with a fine emerypaper.

Do not attempt to polish slip rings while engine is running.------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Air CleanerWith normal operating conditions, the maintenanceschedule for cleaning and re-oiling the foam pre-filteris every 25 hours and replacement of the air cleanerfilter every 100 hours. More frequent servicing isrequired with dusty operating conditions. Refer to themaintenance section of the Engine Owner’s Manualfor more information.

• Refer to the maintenance section of the Engine Owner’s Manual for the maintenance schedule forspark plug servicing, cooling system servicing, andand fuel filter replacement.

• Blowout the machine with low pressure air period-odically. In particularly dirty locations, this may berequired once a week.

• Output Ranger Selector and Polarity Switches:Switch contacts should not be greased. To keepcontacts clean, rotate the switch through its entirerange frequently. Good practice is to turn the handlefrom maximum to minimum setting twice eachmorning before starting to weld.
