Welder/Generator

Issued March 2015 • Index No. EDX/10.11

Hot Start

™

provides positive Stick

electrode starts making it easy to

start all types of electrodes and it

also works great for bead tie-ins.

Enclosed robust case design protects

internal components from impact and

allows air flow to cool and prolong

the life of the engine. Also reduces

sound levels.

Three-phase rotating field generator

efficiently produces smooth DC weld

output using 20 – 30 percent less fuel than

a rotating armature-type DC generator.

Designed for fleet owners that demand

the ultimate in reliability and performance.

Weatherproof Lexan

nameplate

resists cracking and fading, and is

color-coded for ease of operation.

GFCI receptacle as required on

most jobsites to protect oper ators

from electrical hazards.

CSA, IEC and NEMA compliant for

welders. Degree of protection

provided by enclosure IP23.

Heavy-duty low-speed industrial

diesel engines are designed, built

and proven to operate over 10,000

hours before the first basic overhaul.
