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.

4.b. Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistant

material to protect your skin and that of your helpers from

the arc rays.

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.

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.

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:

FUMES AND GASES

can be dangerous.

5.a. Welding may produce fumes and gases

hazardous to health. Avoid breathing these

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.

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.

5. b. The operation of welding fume control equipment is affected

by various factors including proper use and positioning of

the equipment, maintenance of the equipment and the spe-

cific welding procedure and applicaiton involved. Worker

exposure level should be checked upon installation and

periodically thereafter to be certain it is within applicable

OSHA PEL and ACGIH TLV limits.

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.

5.c. 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.

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.

5.d. 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.e. Read and understand the manufacturerʼs instructions for this

equipment and the consumables to be used, including the

material safety data sheet (MSDS) and follow your

employerʼs safety practices. MSDS forms are available from

your welding distributor or from the manufacturer.

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.

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.

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.

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.

7.d. Never allow the electrode, electrode holder or any other

electrically “hot” parts to touch a cylinder.

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).

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.

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.

FOR ELECTRICALLY

powered equipment.

8.a. Turn off input power using the disconnect

switch at the fuse box before working on

the equipment.

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.

8.b. Install equipment in accordance with the U.S. National

Electrical Code, all local codes and the manufacturerʼs

recommendations.

8.c. Ground the equipment in accordance with the U.S. National

Electrical Code and the manufacturerʼs recommendations.

SAFETY

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ

6. Eloigner les matériaux inflammables ou les recouvrir afin de

prévenir tout risque dʼincendie dû aux étincelles.

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:

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 dʼincendie.

Sûreté Pour Soudage A LʼArc

8. Sʼassurer que la masse est connectée le plus prés possible

de la zone de travail quʼil est pratique de le faire. Si on place

la masse sur la charpente de la construction ou dʼautres

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 dʼincendie ou dʼechauffement des chaines et des

câbles jusquʼà ce quʼils se rompent.

1. Protegez-vous contre la secousse électrique:

a. Les circuits à lʼélectrode 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 sʼisoler 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 lʼeau 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 sʼapplicuent aussi au pistolet de

soudage.

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

dʼopérations de dégraissage, nettoyage ou pistolage. La

chaleur ou les rayons de lʼarc 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.

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 nʼimporte quelle partie

du corps.

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ POUR

LES MACHINES À SOUDER À

TRANSFORMATEUR ET À

REDRESSEUR

3. Un coup dʼarc peut être plus sévère quʼun coup de soliel,

donc:

a. Utiliser un bon masque avec un verre filtrant approprié

ainsi quʼun verre blanc afin de se protéger les yeux du ray-

onnement de lʼarc et des projections quand on soude ou

quand on regarde lʼarc.

b. Porter des vêtements convenables afin de protéger la

peau de soudeur et des aides contre le rayonnement de

lʻarc.

c. Protéger lʼautre personnel travaillant à proximité au

soudage à lʼaide dʼécrans appropriés et non-inflammables.

1. Relier à la terre le chassis du poste conformement au code de

lʼélectricité 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, Iʼinstallation et lʼentretien du poste seront

effectués par un électricien qualifié.

3. Avant de faires des travaux à lʼinterieur de poste, la debranch-

er à lʼinterrupteur à la boite de fusibles.

4. Des gouttes de laitier en fusion sont émises de lʼarc de

soudage. Se protéger avec des vêtements de protection libres

de lʼhuile, tels que les gants en cuir, chemise épaisse, pan-

talons sans revers, et chaussures montantes.

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

place.

5. Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité dans la zone de

soudage. Utiliser des lunettes avec écrans lateraux dans les

zones où lʼon pique le laitier.

frame must be electrically bonded to the metal frame

of the vehicle. Use a #8 or larger copper wire connect-

ed between the machine grounding stud and the

frame of the vehicle.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

Do not attempt to use this equipment until you

have thoroughly read the engine manufacturerʼs

manual supplied with your welder. It includes

important safety precautions, detailed engine

starting, operating and maintenance instructions,

and parts lists.

Where this engine driven welder is connected to

premises wiring such as that in your home or shop, itʼs

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 National Electrical Code

and the local code.

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

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

• Do not touch electrically live parts or

electrode with skin or wet clothing.

• Insulate yourself from work and

ground

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 National

Electrical Code lists a number of alternate means of

grounding electrical equipment. A machine grounding

guards off.

• Stop engine before servicing.

• Keep away from moving parts.

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

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 K1898-1 spark arrester must be

installed and properly maintained.

See additional warning information at

front of this operatorʼs manual.

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

MACHINE GROUNDING

Because this portable engine driven welder or genera-

tor creates itʼs own power, it is not necessary to con-

nect itʼs frame to an earth ground, unless the machine

is connected to premises wiring (your home, shop,

etc.).

CAUTION

An incorrect arrester may lead to damage to the

engine or adversely affect performance.

WELDING OUTPUT CABLES

ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTION

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.

WARNING

• Lift only with equipment of

adequate lifting capacity.

• Be sure machine is stable

when lifting.

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.

• Do not lift this machine using

HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION

100% Duty Cycle

At higher altitudes, Welder output de-rating may be

necessary. For maximum rating, de-rate the welder

output 3.5% for every 1000 ft. (305m) above 3000 ft.

(914m). If operation will consistently be at altitudes

above 5,000 ft. (1525m), 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.

Contact your local authorized engine service shop for

high altitude jet kits that are available from the engine

manufacturer.

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.

CAUTION

Do not operate 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.

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

MUFFLER OUTLET PIPE

When operating at an angle, the effective fuel capacity

will be slightly less than the specified 12 Gal. (45 L).

Using the clamp provided secure the outlet pipe to the

outlet tube with the pipe positioned such that it will

direct the exhaust in the desired direction. Tighten

using a 9/16” socket or wrench.

LIFTING

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.

Attach the single lead from the LN-25 control box

to the work using the spring clip on the end of the

lead - it carries no welding current.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The RANGER® 225 GXT is a twin-cylinder, gasoline

driven, multiprocess arc welder and AC power gener-

ator. It is built in a heavy gauge steel case for durabili-

ty on the job site.

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.

• Do not touch electrically live parts

of electrode with skin or wet

clothing.

Stop the engine by placing the Engine switch in the

“OFF”

position.

A fuel shut off valve is not required on the RANGER®

225 GXT because the fuel tank is mounted below the

engine.

• Keep flammable material away.

BREAK-IN PERIOD

• Insulate yourself from work and

ground. Wear eye, ear, and body

protection.

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).

• Keep your head out of the fumes.

• Use ventilation or exhaust to

remove fumes from breathing zone.

MAINTENANCE

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION

WARNING

Make certain that the oil filler cap is securely tight-

ened after checking or adding oil. If the cap is not

tight, oil consumption can increase significantly

which may be evidenced by white smoke coming

from the exhaust.

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 mainte-

nance requiring their removal is complete.

Always use the greatest care when working near

moving parts.

• OIL - Maintenance schedule for changing the oil and

oil filter after break-in :

Kohler

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.

200 Hrs.

Oil Filter

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

The above schedule is for normal operating condi-

tions. More frequent oil changes are required with

dusty, high temperature and other severe operating

conditions. Refer to the maintenance section of the

Engine Owner's Manual for more information.

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.

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

NOTE: Engine life will be reduced if the oil and oil

filter are not changed according to the manufacturerʼs

recommendation.

ENGINE EXHAUST can kill.

• Use in open, well ventilated areas

or vent exhaust outside.

ENGINE OIL CHANGE

Drain the oil while the engine is warm to assure rapid

and complete draining.

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

MOVING PARTS can injure.

• Do not operate with doors open or

guards off.

• Remove the oil filler cap and dipstick. Remove the

yellow cap from the oil drain valve and attach the

flexible drain tube supplied with the machine. Push

in and twist the drain valve counterclockwise. Pull

the valve out and drain the oil into a suitable contain-

er.

• Stop engine before servicing.

• Keep away from moving parts.

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

See additional warning information

throughout this operatorʼs manual and

the Engine manual as well.

• Close the drain valve by pushing in and twisting

clockwise. Replace the yellow cap.

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

• Refill to the upper limit mark on the dipstick with the

recommended oil. Tighten the oil filler cap securely.

Read the Safety Precautions in the front of this manual

and the engine instruction manual before working on

this machine.

ENGINE OIL REFILL CAPACITIES

Without oil filter replacement:

• 1.7qt. (1.6 liter)-Kohler

Keep all equipment safety guards, covers, and devices

in position and in good repair. Keep hands, hair, cloth-

ing, and tools away from gears, fans, and all other

moving parts when starting, operating, or repairing the

equipment.

With oil filter replacement:

• 2.0qt. (1.9 liter)-Kohler

Routine Maintenance

•

At the end of each dayʼs use, refill the fuel tank to

minimize moisture condensation in the tank.

Running out of fuel tends to draw dirt into the fuel

system. Also, check the crankcase oil level and

add oil if indicated.

MAINTENANCE

Use 4-stroke motor oil that meets or exceeds the

requirements 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.

AIR CLEANER AND OTHER MAINTENANCE

•

Air Cleaner - With normal operating conditions, the

maintenance schedule for cleaning and re-oiling

the foam pre-filter is every 25 hours and replace-

ment of the air cleaner filter every 100 hours.

More frequent servicing is required with dusty

operating conditions. Refer to the maintenance

section of the Engine Ownerʼs Manual for more

information.

SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general, all-tempera-

ture use, -5 F to 104 F (-20 C to 40 C).

See Engine Ownerʼs Manual for more specific informa-

tion on oil viscosity recommendations.

Wash your hands with soap and water after handling

used oil.

•

Refer to the maintenance section of the Engine

Ownerʼs Manual for the maintenance schedule,

spark plug servicing, cooling system servicing, and

fuel filter replacement.

Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is

compatible with the environment. We suggest you take

it in a sealed container to your local service station or

recycling center for reclamation.

Blow out the machine with low pressure air period-

ically. In particularly dirty locations, this may be

required once a week.

Do not throw it in the trash, pour it on the ground or

down a drain.

• Output Ranger Selector and Polarity Switches:

Switch contacts should not be greased. To keep

contacts clean, rotate the switch through its entire

range frequently. Good practice is to turn the han-

dle from maximum to minimum setting twice each

morning before starting to weld.

OIL FILTER CHANGE

1. Drain the engine oil.

2. Remove the oil filter, and drain the oil into a suitable

container. Discard the used oil filter.

3. Clean the filter mounting base, and coat the gasket

of the new oil filter with clean engine oil.

4. Screw on the new oil filter by hand, until the gasket

contacts the filter mounting base, then use an oil fil-

ter socket tool to tighten the filter an additional 1/2 to

7/8 turn.

5. Refill the crankcase with the specified amount of the

recommended oil. Reinstall the oil filler cap.

6. Start the engine and check for oil filter leaks.

7. Stop the engine, and check the oil level. If neces-

sary, add oil to the upper limit mark on the dipstick.

MAINTENANCE

ENGINE ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING

GASES FROM BATTERY can explode.

OVERSPEED IS HAZARDOUS

• Keep sparks, flame and cigarettes away from battery.

To prevent EXPLOSION when:

• INSTALLING A NEW BATTERY - disconnect negative

cable from old battery first and connect to new battery

last.

WARNING

The maximum allowable high idle speed for this

machine is 3750 RPM, no load. Do NOT tamper

with governor components or setting or make any

other adjustments to increase the maximum

speed. Severe personal injury and damage to the

machine can result if operated at speeds above

maximum.

• CONNECTING A BATTERY CHARGER - Remove bat-

tery from welder by disconnecting negative cable first,

then positive cable and battery clamp. When rein-

stalling, connect negative cable last. Keep well venti-

lated.

• USING A BOOSTER - connect positive lead to battery

first then connect negative lead to engine foot.

BATTERY ACID CAN BURN EYES AND SKIN.

• Wear gloves and eye protection and be careful when

working near battery. Follow instructions printed on

battery.

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

Adjustments to the engine are to be made only by a

Lincoln Service Center or an authorized Field Service

Shop.

BATTERY

SLIP RINGS

1. When replacing, jumping, or otherwise connecting

the battery to the battery cables, the proper

polarity must be observed. Failure to observe

the proper polarity could result in damage to the

charging circuit. The positive (+) battery cable

has a red terminal cover.

A slight amount of darkening and wear of the slip rings

and brushes is normal. Brushes should be inspected

when a general overhaul is necessary.If brushes are

to be replaced, clean slip rings with a fine emery

paper.

2. If the battery requires charging from an external

charger, disconnect the negative battery cable

first and then the positive battery cable before

attaching the charger leads. Failure to do so

can result in damage to the internal charger

components. When reconnecting the cables,

connect the positive cable first and the negative

cable last.

CAUTION

Do not attempt to polish slip rings while engine is

running.
