WARNING
Mar ‘95
ELECTRIC AND
MAGNETIC FIELDS
may 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, and
welders having a pacemaker should consult their physician
before welding.
2.c. Exposure to EMF fields in welding may have other health
effects which are now not known.
2.d. All welders should use the following procedures in order to
minimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit:
2.d.1.
Route the electrode and work cables together - Secure
them 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 and
work 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 as
possible to the area being welded.
2.d.5. Do not work next to welding power source.
1.h. To avoid scalding, do not remove the
radiator pressure cap when the engine is
hot.

ARC RAYS can burn.
4.a. Use a shield with the proper filter and cover
plates to protect your eyes from sparks and
the rays of the arc when welding or observing
open arc welding. Headshield and filter lens
should conform to ANSI Z87. I standards.
4.b. Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistant
material to protect your skin and that of your helpers from
the arc rays.
4.c. Protect other nearby personnel with suitable, non-flammable
screening and/or warn them not to watch the arc nor expose
themselves to the arc rays or to hot spatter or metal.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can
kill.
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 bare
skin 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 full
area of physical contact with work and ground.
In addition to the normal safety precautions, if welding
must be performed under electrically hazardous
conditions (in damp locations or while wearing wet
clothing; on metal structures such as floors, gratings or
scaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting,
kneeling or lying, if there is a high risk of unavoidable or
accidental contact with the workpiece or ground) use
the 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 semiautomatic
welding gun are also electrically “hot”.
3.d. Always be sure the work cable makes a good electrical
connection with the metal being welded. The connection
should 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 and
welding machine in good, safe operating condition. Replace
damaged insulation.
3.g. Never dip the electrode in water for cooling.
3.h. Never simultaneously touch electrically “hot” parts of
electrode holders connected to two welders because voltage
between the two can be the total of the open circuit voltage
of both welders.
3.i. When working above floor level, use a safety belt to protect
yourself from a fall should you get a shock.
3.j. Also see Items 6.c. and 8.
FUMES AND GASES
can be dangerous.
5.a. Welding may produce fumes and gases
hazardous to health. Avoid breathing these
fumes and gases.When welding, keep
your head out of the fume. Use enough
ventilation and/or exhaust at the arc to keep
fumes and gases away from the breathing zone. When
welding with electrodes which require special
ventilation such as stainless or hard facing (see
instructions on container or MSDS) or on lead or
cadmium plated steel and other metals or coatings
which produce highly toxic fumes, keep exposure as
low as possible and below Threshold Limit Values (TLV)
using local exhaust or mechanical ventilation. In
confined spaces or in some circumstances, outdoors, a
respirator may be required. Additional precautions are
also required when welding on galvanized steel.
5.b.
Do not weld in locations near chlorinated hydrocarbon
vapors
coming from degreasing, cleaning or spraying operations.
The heat and rays of the arc can react with solvent vapors
to
form phosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritating
products.
5.c. Shielding gases used for arc welding can displace air and
cause 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 this
equipment and the consumables to be used, including the
material safety data sheet (MSDS) and follow your
employer’s safety practices. MSDS forms are available from
your welding distributor or from the manufacturer.
5.e. Also see item 1.b.
Mar ‘95
FOR ELECTRICALLY
powered equipment.
8.a. Turn off input power using the disconnect
switch at the fuse box before working on
the equipment.
8.b. Install equipment in accordance with the U.S. National
Electrical Code, all local codes and the manufacturer’s
recommendations.
8.c. Ground the equipment in accordance with the U.S. National
Electrical Code and the manufacturer’s recommendations.
CYLINDER may explode
if damaged.
7.a. Use only compressed gas cylinders
containing the correct shielding gas for the
process used and properly operating
regulators designed for the gas and
pressure used. All hoses, fittings, etc. should be suitable for
the application and maintained in good condition.
7.b. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securely
chained to an undercarriage or fixed support.
7.c. Cylinders should be located:
• Away from areas where they may be struck or subjected to
physical damage.
• A safe distance from arc welding or cutting operations and
any other source of heat, sparks, or flame.
7.d. Never allow the electrode, electrode holder or any other
electrically “hot” parts to touch a cylinder.
7.e. Keep your head and face away from the cylinder valve outlet
when opening the cylinder valve.
7.f. Valve protection caps should always be in place and hand
tight except when the cylinder is in use or connected for
use.
7.g. Read and follow the instructions on compressed gas
cylinders, associated equipment, and CGA publication P-l,
“Precautions for Safe Handling of Compressed Gases in
Cylinders,” available from the Compressed Gas Association
1235 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202.

SAFETY
iii
Mar ‘95
WELDING SPARKS can
cause fire or explosion.
6.a.
Remove fire hazards from the welding area.
If this is not possible, cover them to prevent
the welding sparks from starting a fire.
Remember that welding sparks and hot
materials from welding can easily go through small cracks
and openings to adjacent areas. Avoid welding near
hydraulic 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 hazardous
situations. Refer to “Safety in Welding and Cutting” (ANSI
Standard Z49.1) and the operating information for the
equipment being used.
6.c. When not welding, make certain no part of the electrode
circuit is touching the work or ground. Accidental contact
can cause overheating and create a fire hazard.
6.d. Do not heat, cut or weld tanks, drums or containers until the
proper steps have been taken to insure that such procedures
will not cause flammable or toxic vapors from substances
inside. They can cause an explosion even
though
they have
been “cleaned”. For information, purchase “Recommended
Safe Practices for the
Preparation
for Welding and Cutting of
Containers and Piping That Have Held Hazardous
Substances”, AWS F4.1 from the American Welding Society
(see address above).
6.e. Vent hollow castings or containers before heating, cutting or
welding. They may explode.
6.f.
Sparks and spatter are thrown from the welding arc. Wear oil
free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt,
cuffless trousers, high shoes and a cap over your hair. Wear
ear plugs when welding out of position or in confined places.
Always wear safety glasses with side shields when in a
welding area.
6.g. Connect the work cable to the work as close to the welding
area as practical. Work cables connected to the building
framework or other locations away from the welding area
increase the possibility of the welding current passing
through lifting chains, crane cables or other alternate
circuits. This can create fire hazards or overheat lifting
chains or cables until they fail.

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ
Pour votre propre protection lire et observer toutes les instructions
et les précautions de sûreté specifiques qui parraissent dans ce
manuel aussi bien que les précautions de sûreté générales
suivantes:
Sûreté Pour Soudage A L’Arc
1. Protegez-vous contre la secousse électrique:
a. Les circuits à l’électrode et à la piéce sont sous tension
quand la machine à souder est en marche. Eviter toujours
tout contact entre les parties sous tension et la peau nue
ou les vétements mouillés. Porter des gants secs et sans
trous pour isoler les mains.
b. Faire trés attention de bien s’isoler de la masse quand on
soude dans des endroits humides, ou sur un plancher
metallique ou des grilles metalliques, principalement dans
les positions assis ou couché pour lesquelles une grande
partie du corps peut être en contact avec la masse.
c. Maintenir le porte-électrode, la pince de masse, le câble
de soudage et la machine à souder en bon et sûr état
defonctionnement.
d.Ne jamais plonger le porte-électrode dans l’eau pour le
refroidir.
e. Ne jamais toucher simultanément les parties sous tension
des porte-électrodes connectés à deux machines à souder
parce que la tension entre les deux pinces peut être le
total de la tension à vide des deux machines.
f. Si on utilise la machine à souder comme une source de
courant pour soudage semi-automatique, ces precautions
pour le porte-électrode s’applicuent aussi au pistolet de
soudage.
2. Dans le cas de travail au dessus du niveau du sol, se protéger
contre les chutes dans le cas ou on recoit un choc. Ne jamais
enrouler le câble-électrode autour de n’importe quelle partie
du 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 approprié
ainsi qu’un verre blanc afin de se protéger les yeux du
rayonnement de l’arc et des projections quand on soude
ou quand on regarde l’arc.
b. Porter des vêtements convenables afin de protéger la
peau de soudeur et des aides contre le rayonnement de
l‘arc.
c. Protéger l’autre personnel travaillant à proximité au
soudage à l’aide d’écrans appropriés et non-inflammables.
4. Des gouttes de laitier en fusion sont émises de l’arc de
soudage. Se protéger avec des vêtements de protection libres
de l’huile, tels que les gants en cuir, chemise épaisse,
pantalons sans revers, et chaussures montantes.
5. Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité dans la zone de
soudage. Utiliser des lunettes avec écrans lateraux dans les
zones où l’on pique le laitier.
6. Eloigner les matériaux inflammables ou les recouvrir afin de
prévenir tout risque d’incendie dû aux étincelles.
7. Quand on ne soude pas, poser la pince à une endroit isolé de
la masse. Un court-circuit accidental peut provoquer un
échauffement et un risque d’incendie.
8. S’assurer que la masse est connectée le plus prés possible
de la zone de travail qu’il est pratique de le faire. Si on place
la masse sur la charpente de la construction ou d’autres
endroits éloignés de la zone de travail, on augmente le risque
de voir passer le courant de soudage par les chaines de
levage, câbles de grue, ou autres circuits. Cela peut
provoquer des risques d’incendie ou d’echauffement des
chaines et des câbles 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 tôles
galvanisées plombées, ou cadmiées ou tout autre métal qui
produit des fumeés toxiques.
10. Ne pas souder en présence de vapeurs de chlore provenant
d’opérations de dégraissage, nettoyage ou pistolage. La
chaleur ou les rayons de l’arc peuvent réagir avec les vapeurs
du 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” CSA
Standard W 117.2-1974.
PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ POUR
LES MACHINES À SOUDER À
TRANSFORMATEUR ET À
REDRESSEUR
1. Relier à la terre le chassis du poste conformement au code de
l’électricité et aux recommendations du fabricant. Le dispositif
de montage ou la piece à souder doit être branché à une
bonne mise à la terre.
2. Autant que possible, I’installation et l’entretien du poste seront
effectués par un électricien qualifié.
3. Avant de faires des travaux à l’interieur de poste, la
debrancher à l’interrupteur à la boite de fusibles.
4. Garder tous les couvercles et dispositifs de sûreté à leur
place.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 350-SA is a heavy duty engine-driven DC arc
welding power source capable of providing constant
current output for stick welding or DC TIG welding.
With the addition of the optional Wire Feed Module for
K1314-4, the 350-SA will provide constant voltage
output for running the LN-25, LN-23P or LN-7 wire
feeders. The Wire Feed Module is factory-installed on
the K1314-5 350-SA.
The output rating of the 350-SA is 350 amperes at 34*
arc volts at 25% duty cycle. Duty cycle is based on a
ten minute period; thus, the welder can be loaded at
rated output for 2.5 minutes out of every ten minute
period.
* The output rating at 60% duty cycle is
250 amps at 40V.
DESIGN SUMMARY
Control Panel
Both the engine and the welder controls are located
on one recessed panel at the exciter end of the
machine. The welder controls consist of a five step
“Current Range Selector” switch and a “Fine Current
Adjustment” rheostat. Each welder is equipped with a
“Start” button and an “Idler Control” switch. The
Perkins diesel uses a “Thermostart” button, and has a
“Stop” control.
On this panel is also mounted an engine temperature
gauge, a battery charging ammeter, an oil pressure
gauge, and the three prong grounded type auxiliary
power receptacle.
Copper Shunt Windings
For long life and dependable operation.
Engine Idler
The 350-SA is equipped with an electric automatic
engine idler. It automatically increases and decreases
engine speed when starting and stopping welder or
using auxiliary power. A built-in time delay permits
changing electrodes before the engine slows to its low
idle speed. The “Idler Control Switch” on the panel
locks the idler in full speed position when desired.

PRE-OPERATION INSTALLATION
Safety Precautions
Exhaust Spark Arrester
Some federal, state or local laws may require that
diesel engines be equipped with exhaust spark
arresters when they are operated in certain locations
where unarrested sparks may present a fire hazard.
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 damage
or performance loss. Contact the engine manufacturer
for specific recommendations.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Location / Ventilation
Always operate the welder with the doors closed.
Leaving the doors open changes the designed air flow
and may cause overheating.
The welder should be located to provide an
unrestricted flow of clean, cool air. Also, locate the
welder so that the engine exhaust fumes are properly
vented to an outside area.
Machine Grounding
According to the United States National Electrical
Code, the frame of this portable generator is not
required to be grounded and is permitted to serve as
the grounding means for cord connected equipment
plugged into its receptacle.
Some state, local or other codes or unusual operating
circumstances may require the machine frame to be
grounded. It is recommended that you determine the
extent to which such requirements may apply to your
particular situation and follow them explicitly. A
machine grounding stud marked with the symbol
is provided on the welding generator frame foot. (If an
older portable welder does not have a grounding stud,
connect the ground wire to an unpainted frame screw
or bolt.
In general, if the machine is to be grounded, it should
be connected with a #8 or larger copper wire to a solid
earth ground such as metal water pipe going into the
ground for at least ten feet and having no insulated
joints, or to the metal framework of a building which
has been effectively grounded. The U.S. National
Electrical Code lists a number of alternate means of
grounding electrical equipment.
Lift Bail
A lift bail is provided for lifting with a hoist.
Trailers (See Optional Features)
If the user adapts a non-Lincoln trailer, he must
assume responsibility that the method of attachment
and usage does not result in a safety hazard nor

ENGINE OPERATION
Operate the welder with the doors closed. Leaving
the doors open changes the designed air flow and can
cause overheating.
Starting the Perkins D3.152 Engine
a) Turn the idler control to “HIGH”.
b) Turn the ignition control to “ON”.
c) Push in the “RESET” button.
d) Press the “START” button. Release button when
engine starts.
e) If the engine fails to start in 60 seconds, wait 30
seconds before repeating the above procedure.
f) Allow the engine to run at high idle speed for
several minutes to warm up. Cold engines tend to
run at a speed too slow to supply the voltage
required for proper idler operation.
Cold Weather Starting -- When overnight
temperatures are between -12°C (10°F) and freezing,
use the standard “Thermostart” starting system
installed on all engines. Follow the instructions on the
nameplate and in the engine manual shipped with the
welder. With fully charged batteries and the proper
weight oil, the “Thermostart” system operates
satisfactorily even down to about -18°C (0°F).
If the engine must be frequently started below -12°C
(10°F), it may be desirable to remove the
“Thermostart” and install the optional ether starter kit.
Installation and operating instructions are included in
the kit. Use ether starting only when required
because excessive use shortens engine life.
Stopping the Perkins D3.152 Engine
a) Turn the ignition control to “OFF”.
At the end of each day’s welding, refill the fuel tank to
minimize moisture condensation in the tank. Also,
running out of fuel tends to draw dirt into the fuel
system.
Check the crankcase oil and radiator water level.
Do not attempt to use this equipment until you
have thoroughly read the engine manufacturer’s
manual supplied with your welder. It includes
important safety precautions, detailed engine
starting, operating and maintenance instructions,
and parts lists.

-----------------------------------------------------------
WARNING
– 14 –
When a forceful “digging” arc is required, usually for
vertical and overhead welding, use a higher “Current
Range Selector” setting and lower open circuit
voltage. For example: to obtain 175 amps and a
forceful arc, set the “Current Range Selector” to the
240-160 position and the “Fine Current Adjustment”
setting to get 175 amps.
DO NOT attempt to set the “Current Range Selector”
between the five points designated on the nameplate.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
These switches have a spring loaded cam which
almost eliminates the possibility of setting this switch
between the designated points.
Idler Operation
Start the engine with the “Idler Control” switch in
“High Idle” position. Allow it to run at high idle speed
for several minutes to warm the engine. The
operating speeds are as follows:
The idler is controlled by an “Idler Control” toggle
switch on the welder control panel. The switch has
two positions as follows:
1. In the “High” position, the idler is off, and the
engine runs at the high speed controlled by the
governor.
2. In the “Automatic” / position, the
idler operates as follows:
a. When welding or drawing power for lights or
tools (approximately 100-150 watts minimum)
from the receptacles, the engine operates at full
speed.
b. When welding ceases or the power load is
turned off, a preset time delay of about 15
seconds starts. This time delay cannot be
adjusted.
c. If the welding or power load is not re-started
before the end of the time delay, the idler
reduces the engine to low idle speed.

WELDER OPERATION
Duty Cycle
The NEMA output rating of the 350-SA is 250
amperes at 30
(1)
arc volts on a 60% duty cycle. Duty
cycle is based on a ten minute period; thus, the
welder can be loaded at rated output for six minutes
out of every ten minute period.
(1)
The Lincoln ‘plus output” rating at 60% duty cycle
is 250 amperes at 40 volts.
Control of Welding Current
DO NOT TURN THE “CURRENT RANGE
SELECTOR” WHILE WELDING because the
current may arc between the contacts and damage
the switch.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The “Current Range Selector” provides five
overlapping current ranges. The “Fine Current
Adjustment” adjusts the current from minimum to
maximum within each range. Open circuit voltage is
also controlled by the “Fine Current Adjustment”
permitting control of the arc characteristics.
A high open circuit voltage setting provides the soft
“buttering” arc with best resistance to pop-outs
preferred for most welding. To get this characteristic,
set the “Current Range Selector” to the lowest setting
that still provides the current you need and set the
“
Fine Current Adjustment” near maximum. For example:
to obtain 175 amps and a soft arc, set the “Current
Range Selector” to the 190-120 position and then adjust
the “Fine Current Adjustment” for 175
amps.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.
• Do not touch electrically live parts or
electrode with skin or wet clothing.
• Insulate yourself from work and ground.
FUMES & GASES can be dangerous.
• Keep your head out of the fumes.
• Use ventilation or exhaust to remove
fumes from breathing zone.
WELDING SPARKS can cause fire or
explosion.
• Keep flammable material away.
ARC RAYS can burn.
• Wear eye, ear, and body protection.

MAINTENANCE
General Instructions for Diesel Engine
Welders
1. Blow out the welder and controls with an air hose
at least once every two months. In particularly
dirty locations, this cleaning may be necessary
once a week. Use low pressure air to avoid driving
dirt into the insulation.
2. “Current Range Selector” contacts should not be
greased. To keep the contacts clean, rotate the
current control through its entire range frequently.
Good practice is to turn the handle from maximum
to minimum setting twice each morning before
starting to weld.
Auxiliary Power
The AC auxiliary power, supplied as a standard, has a
rating of 3.0 kVA of 115/230V AC (60 Hz).
With the 3.0 kVA, 115/230V AC auxiliary power, one
duplex 115V grounding type receptacle (NEMA
configuration 5-15R) is provided. For the 230V AC
power, one grounding type duplex receptacle is
provided (NEMA configuration 6-15R). The circuit is
protected with circuit breakers.
The rating of 3.0 kVA permits a maximum continuous
current of 13 amps to be drawn from the 230 volt
duplex receptacle. Or a total of 26 amps can be
drawn from the 115 volt duplex receptacle. The 115
volt duplex receptacle has a configuration which
permits 15 amps to be drawn from either half.
Therefore, on this machine, up to 15 amps continuous
can be drawn from one half and the balance of 11
amps from the other half. The total combined load of
all receptacles is not to exceed 3.0 kVA.
An optional power plug kit is available. When this kit
is specified, the customer is supplied with a plug for
each receptacle. In this case, he will receive two 15
amp, 115 volt plugs (NEMA configuration 5-15P) and
two 15 amp, 230 volt plugs (NEMA configuration
6-15P).
Have qualified personnel do the maintenance
work. Turn the engine off before working inside
the machine. In some cases, it may be
necessary to remove safety guards to perform
required maintenance. Remove guards only
when necessary and replace them when the
maintenance requiring their removal is
complete. Always use the greatest care when
working near moving parts.
Do not put your hands near the engine cooling
blower fan. If a problem cannot be corrected by
following the instructions, take the machine to
the nearest Lincoln Field Service Shop.

3. Change the crankcase oil at regular intervals using
the proper grade of oil as recommended in the
engine operating manual.
4. Change the oil filter in accordance with the
instructions in the engine operator’s manual.
When the filter is changed, add a quart of oil to the
crankcase to replace the oil held in the filter during
operation.
5. Inspect the air filter daily - more often in dusty
conditions. When necessary, clean or replace.
The filter should never be removed while the
engine is running.
6. Change the diesel fuel filters every 500 hours of
operation.
7. Fan belts tend to loosen after the first 30 or 40
hours of operation. Check and tighten if
necessary. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
8. Put a drop of oil on the “Current Range Selector”
shaft at least once every month.
9. See the engine manufacturer’s Operating Manual
for detailed engine maintenance and
troubleshooting instructions.
Cooling System
The 350-SA is equipped with a pressure radiator.
Keep the radiator cap tight to prevent loss of coolant.
Clean and flush the cooling system periodically to
prevent clogging the passage and overheating the
engine. When antifreeze is needed, always use the
permanent type.
Bearings
This welder is equipped with a double-shielded ball
bearing having sufficient grease to last indefinitely
under normal service. Where the welder is used
constantly or in excessively dirty locations, it may be
necessary to add one-half ounce of grease per year.
A pad of grease one inch wide, one inch long, and
one inch high weighs approximately one-half ounce.
Over-greasing is far worse than insufficient greasing.
When greasing the bearings, keep all dirt out of the
area. Wipe the fittings completely clean and use
clean equipment. More bearing failures are caused
by dirt introduced during greasing than from
insufficient grease.
Commutator & Brushes
Uncovered rotating equipment can be dangerous.
Use care so your hands, hair, clothing or tools do
not catch in the rotating parts. Protect yourself
from particles that may be thrown out by the
rotating armature when stoning the commutator.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The generator brushes are properly adjusted when
the welder is shipped. They require no particular
attention. DO NOT SHIFT THE BRUSHES or adjust
the rocker setting.
Periodically inspect the commutator, slip rings and
brushes by removing the covers. DO NOT remove or
replace these covers while the machine is running.
Commutators and slip rings require little attention.
However, if they are black or appear uneven, have
them cleaned by an experienced maintenance man
using fine sandpaper or a commutator stone. Never
use emery cloth or paper for this purpose.
Note: If the welder is used in dirty or dusty locations,
or if the welder is not used for prolonged periods of
time, it may be necessary to clean the commutator
and slip rings more often.
Replace brushes when they wear within 1/4” of the
pigtail. A complete set of replacement brushes should
be kept on hand. Lincoln brushes have a curved face
to fit the commutator. Have an experienced
maintenance man seat these brushes by lightly
stoning the commutator as the armature rotates at full
speed until contact is made across the full face of the
brushes. After stoning, blow out the dust with low
pressure air.
To seat the slip ring brushes, position the brushes in
place. Then slide one end of a piece of fine
sandpaper between slip rings and brushes with the
coarse side against the brushes. With slight
additional finger pressure on top of the brushes, pull
the sandpaper around the circumference of the rings,
in direction of rotation only - until brushes seat
properly. In addition, stone slip ring with a fine stone.
Brushes must be seated 100%.
Arcing or excessive exciter brush wear indicates a
possible misaligned shaft. Have an authorized Field
Service Shop check and realign the shaft.

Idler Maintenance
Before doing electrical work on the idler printed
circuit board, disconnect the battery.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. The solenoid plunger must work freely because
binding can cause engine surging. If surging
occurs, be sure the plunger is properly lined up
with the throttle lever. Dust the plunger about once
a year with graphite powder.
2. When any service is done, reassemble the rubber
bellows on the solenoid plunger with the vent hole
on the lower side.
3. Proper operation of the idler requires good
grounding of the printed circuit board (through its
mounting), reed switch and battery.
4. If desired, the welder can be used without
automatic idling by setting the “Idler Control” switch
to the “High Idle” position.
5. When installing a new battery or using a jumper
battery to start the engine, be sure the battery
polarity is connected properly. The correct polarity
is negative ground. Damage to the engine
alternator and the printed circuit board can result
from incorrect connection.
