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.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNINGS

SAFETY
ii
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 prod-
ucts.
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 cir-
cuits. 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 suiv-
antes:
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 ray-
onnement 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, pan-
talons 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 lev-
age, 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 debranch-
er à l’interrupteur à la boite de fusibles.
4. Garder tous les couvercles et dispositifs de sûreté à leur
place.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
MACHINE GROUNDING
Because 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 machine
is connected to premises wiring (your home, shop,
etc.).
To prevent dangerous electric shock, other equipment
to which this engine driven welder supplies power
must:
• 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’s
frame must be securely connected to the metal frame
of the vehicle.
Where this engine driven welder is connected to
premises wiring such as that in your home or shop, it’s
frame must be connected to the system earth ground.
See further connection instructions in the section enti-
tled “Standby Power Connections”, as well as the arti-
cle on grounding in the latest U.S. National Electrical
Code and the local code.
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 a metal water pipe going into
the ground for at least ten feet and having no insulat-
ed 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. A machine
grounding stud marked with the symbol is provid-
ed on the front of the welder.
SPARK ARRESTER
Some federal, state, or local laws may require that
gasoline engines be equipped with exhaust spark
arresters when they are operated in certain locations
where unarrested sparks may present a fire hazard.
The standard muffler included with this welder does
not qualify as a spark arrester. When required by
local regulations, the K894-1 spark arrester must be
installed and properly maintained.
An incorrect arrester may lead to damage to the
engine or adversely affect performance.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRAILERS
The recommended trailer for use with this equipment
for in plant and yard towing by a vehicle is Lincoln’s
K768-2. Consult applicable federal, state, and local
laws regarding specific requirements for use on public
highways.
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 dam-
age the welding equipment.
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.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 information at
front of this operator’s manual.

Some of the factors to be considered are as follows:
1. Design capacity of trailer vs. weight of Lincoln
equipment and likely additional attachments.
2. Proper support of, and attachment to, the base of
the welding equipment so there will be no undue
stress to the framework.
PRE-OPERATION SERVICE
READ the engine operating and maintenance instruc-
tions supplied with this machine.
OIL
The Ranger 8 is shipped with the engine crankcase
filled with SAE 10W-30 oil. Check the oil level before
starting the engine. If it is not up to the full mark on
the dip stick, add oil as required. Make certain that
the oil filler cap is tightened securely. Refer to the
engine Owner’s Manual for specific oil recommenda-
tions.
FUEL
Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh, lead-free gasoline.
Observe fuel gauge while filling to prevent overfilling.
BATTERY CONNECTIONS
This welder is shipped with the negative battery cable
disconnected. Make sure that the Engine Switch is in
the “STOP” position and attach the disconnected
cable securely to the negative battery terminal before
attempting to operate the machine. If the battery is
discharged and does not have enough power to start
the engine, see the battery charging instructions in the
Battery section.
WELDING OUTPUT CABLES
With the engine off, connect the electrode and work
cables to the studs provided. These connections
should be checked periodically and tightened if neces-
sary. Loose connections will result in overheating of
the output studs.
When welding at a considerable distance from the
welder, be sure you use ample size welding cables.
Listed below are copper cable sizes recommended for
the rated current and duty cycle. Lengths stipulated
are the distance from the welder to work and back to
the welder again. Cable sizes are increased for
greater lengths primarily for the purpose of minimizing
cable voltage drop.

ANGLE OF OPERATION
Internal combustion engines are designed to run in a
level condition which is where the optimum perfor-
mance is achieved. The maximum angle of operation
for the engine is 15 degrees from horizontal in any
direction. 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 the
crankcase in a level condition.
When operating at an angle, the effective fuel capaci-
ty will be slightly less than the specified 9 gallons.
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION
If the Ranger 8 will be consistently operated at alti-
tudes above 5000 ft, a carburetor jet designed for
high altitudes should be installed. This will result in
better fuel economy, cleaner exhaust, and longer
spark plug life. It will not
give increased power which
is decreased at higher altitudes. Engine horsepower
is reduced by 3.5% per 1000 feet for altitudes above
377 feet.
Do not operate a Ranger 8 with a high altitude jet
installed at altitudes below 5000 ft. This will
result in the engine running too lean and result in
higher engine operating temperatures which can
shorten engine life.
Contact your local Onan, Kohler or Honda Authorized
Dealer for high altitude jet kits that are available from
the engine manufacturer.
Muffler Relocation Shut off welder and allow
muffler to cool before touching muffler.
The Ranger 8 is shipped with the exhaust coming out
on the left side. The exhaust can be changed to the
opposite side by removing the two screws that hold
the exhaust port cover in place and installing the
cover on the opposite side. (Operating the Ranger 8
without the cover in place will result in a higher noise
level and no increase in machine output.)
LOCATION / VENTILATION
The welder should be located to provide an unrestrict-
ed flow of clean, cool air to the cooling air inlets and to
avoid heated air coming out of the welder recirculating
back to the cooling air inlet. Also, locate the welder
so that engine exhaust fumes are properly vented to
an outside area.
CONNECTION OF LINCOLN ELECTRIC
WIRE FEEDERS
Shut off welder before making any electrical
connections.
WIRE FEED (CONSTANT VOLTAGE)

TO THE RANGER 8.
The TIG Module is an accessory that provides high
frequency and shielding gas control for AC and DC
GTAW (TIG) welding. See IM528 supplied with the
TIG Module for installation instructions.
Note: The TIG Module does not require the use of a
high frequency bypass capacitor. However, if the
Ranger 8 is used with any other high frequency equip-
ment, the bypass capacitor must be installed - order
kit T12246.
INSTRUCTIONS
ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Always operate the welder with the roof and case
sides in place as this provides maximum protection
from moving parts and assures proper cooling air
flow.
Read and understand all Safety Precautions before
operating this machine. Always follow these and any
other safety procedures included in this manual and in
the Engine Owner’s Manual.
WELDER OPERATION
WELDER OUTPUT
• Maximum Open Circuit Voltage at 3700 RPM is
80 Volts RMS.
• Duty Cycle: 100% for both welding and auxiliary
power.
AUXILIARY POWER
The Ranger 8 can provide up to 8,000 watts of
115/230 volts AC, single phase 60Hz power for con-
tinuous use. The front of the machine includes three
receptacles for connecting the AC power plugs; one
50 amp 115/230 volt NEMA 14-50R receptacle and
two 20 amp 115 volt NEMA 5-20R receptacles.
Do not connect any plugs that connect to the
power receptacles in parallel.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Start the engine and set the “IDLER” control switch to
the desired operating mode. Set the “CONTROL” to
10. Voltage is now correct at the receptacles for auxil-
iary power.
115/230 VOLT DUAL VOLTAGE RECEPTACLE
The 115/230 volt receptacle can supply up to 40 amps
of 230 volt power to a two wire circuit, up to 40 amps
of 115 volts power from each side of a three wire cir-
cuit (up to 70 amps total). Do not connect the 115 volt
circuits in parallel. Current sensing for the automatic
idle feature is only in one leg of the three wire circuit
as shown in the following column.

115 V DUPLEX RECEPTACLES
The 115V auxiliary power receptacles should only be
used with three wire grounded type plugs or approved
double insulated tools with two wire plugs.
The current rating of any plug used with the system
must be at least equal to the current load through the
associated receptacle (Refer to Tables I and II). Do
not attempt to connect power receptacles in parallel.
MOTOR STARTING
Most 1.5 hp AC single phase motors can be started if
there is no load on the motor or other load connected
to the machine, since the full load current rating of a
1.5 hp motor is approximately 20 amperes (10
amperes for 230 volt motors). The motor may be run
at full load when plugged into only one side of the
duplex receptacle. Larger motors through 2 hp can be
run provided the receptacle rating as previously stated
is not exceeded. This may necessitate 230V opera-
tion only.

STANDBY POWER CONNECTIONS
The Ranger 8 is suitable for temporary, standby, or
emergency power using the engine manufacturer’s rec-
ommended maintenance schedule.
The Ranger 8 can be permanently installed as a stand-
by power unit for 230V-3 wire, single phase 35 ampere
service.
(Connections must be made by a licensed electri-
cian who can determine how the 115/230V power
can be adapted to the particular installation and
comply with all applicable electrical codes.) The
following information can be used as a guide by
the electrician for most applications (refer also to
the connection diagram shown in Figure 1.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Install a double pole, double throw switch between
the power company meter and the premises
disconnect.
Switch rating must be the same or greater than
the customer’s premises disconnect and service
overcurrent protection.
2. Take necessary steps to assure load is limited to
the capacity of the Ranger 8 by installing a 35 amp
230V double pole circuit breaker. Maximum
rated load for the 230V auxiliary is 35 amperes.
Loading above 35 amperes will reduce output
voltage below the allowable -10% of rated
voltage which may damage appliances or other
motor-driven equipment.
3. Install a 50 amp 115/230V plug (NEMA type 14-50)
to the Double Pole Circuit Breaker using No. 8,
4 conductor cable of the desired length. (The
50 amp 115/230V plug is available in the
optional plug kit.)
4. Plug this cable into the 50 amp 115/230V
receptacle on the Ranger 8 case front.
WARNING

WELDER CONTROLS - FUNCTION AND OPERATION
ENGINE “ON-OFF” SWITCH
When placed in the “ON” position, this switch
energizes the engine ignition circuit. When placed in
the “OFF” position, the ignition circuit is de-energized
to shut down the engine.
ENGINE “START” PUSH-BUTTON SWITCH
Energizes engine starter motor.
“POLARITY” SWITCH
Never change the “Polarity” switch setting while
welding. This will damage the switch.
“ RANGE” SWITCH
Never change the “RANGE” Switch setting while
welding. This will damage the switch.
“ CONTROL” SWITCH
Provides a fine welding current adjustment within the
Range Switch settings in the STICK/TIG mode and
welding voltage control with the Range switch set in
the wire feed mode.
“IDLER” SWITCH
The idler switch has two positions, “HIGH” and
“AUTO”.
When in “HIGH” ( ) position, the engine will run
continuously at high idle.
When in “AUTO” ( / ) idle position, the idler
operates as follows:
• Welding
When the electrode touches the work, the welding
arc is initiated and the engine accelerates to full
speed.
After welding ceases (and no auxiliary power is
being drawn), the engine will return to low idle
after approximately 10 to 14 seconds.
• Auxiliary Power
With the engine running at low idle and auxiliary
power for lights or tools is drawn (approximately
100-150 watts or greater) from the receptacles,
the engine will accelerate to high speed. If no
power is being drawn from the receptacles (and
not welding) for 10-14 seconds, the idler reduces
the engine speed to low idle.

STARTING/SHUTDOWN INSTRUCTIONS
STARTING THE ENGINE
Be sure all Pre-Operation Maintenance has been per-
formed. Also, read the Engine Owner’s Manual.
Remove all loads connected to the AC power recepta-
cles. To start the engine, set the “Idler Control” switch
in the Automatic ( / ) position.
Use the choke control as follows:
ONAN ENGINE - If the engine is cold, pull the choke
control out. Do not use the choke if the engine is
warm or hot.
KOHLER ENGINE - Always pull the choke control out
when starting the engine; cold, warm or hot. Place the
“Engine” switch in the “ON” position.
HONDA ENGINE - If the engine is cold, pull the choke
control out. Do not use the choke if the engine is
warm or hot. Place the “Engine” switch in the “ON”
position.
Push the “START” button and crank the engine until it
starts. Release the button as soon as the engine
starts. Do not push the “START” button while the
engine is running because this will cause damage to
the ring gear and/or starter motor. After the engine
has started, slowly return the choke control to the full
“in” position (choke open).
After running at high engine speed for 10-14 seconds,
the engine will go to low idle.
Allow the engine to warm up by letting it run at low idle
for a few minutes.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Remove all welding and auxiliary power loads and
allow engine to run at low idle speed for a few minutes
to cool the engine.
Stop the engine by placing the “Engine” switch in the
“OFF” position.
A fuel shut off valve is not required on the Ranger 8
because the fuel tank is mounted below the engine.
BREAK-IN PERIOD
It is normal for any engine to use a greater amount of
oil until the break-in is accomplished. Check the oil
level twice a day during the break-in period (approxi-
mately 50 running hours)).
IMPORTANT: IN ORDER TO ACCOMPLISH THIS
BREAK-IN, THE UNIT SHOULD BE
SUBJECTED TO MODERATE
LOADS, WITHIN THE RATING OF
THE MACHINE. AVOID LONG IDLE
RUNNING PERIODS. REMOVE
LOADS AND ALLOW ENGINE TO
COOL BEFORE SHUTDOWN.
The engine manufacturer’s recommendation for the
running time until the first oil change is as follows:
The oil filter is to be changed at the second oil
change. Refer to the Engine Owner’s Manual for more
information.
