BLW-400SSW-WELDER/AC GENERATOR— PARTS & OPERATION MANUAL— REV. #1 (06/15/01) — PAGE 27
General Inspection Prior to Operation
The BLW-400SSW utilizes a welder/AC generator that has
been thoroughly inspected and accepted prior to shipment
from the factory. However, be sure to check for damaged
parts or components, or loose nuts and bolts, which could
have occurred in transit.
Ground
The nut and ground terminal on the welder/AC generator
should always be used to connect to a suitable ground. The
ground path should be of #8 size wire.
Connect the terminal of the ground wire between the lock
washer and the nut and tighten the nut fully. Connect their
end of the wire to a suitable ground.
Circuit Breakers
To protect the welder/AC generator from an overload,
a 3-pole,
53 amp,
main circuit breaker is provided. In addition 2-two
pole, 25 amp breaker is provided for the G.F.C.I. receptacles.
Make sure to switch both circuit breakers to the "OFF"
position prior to starting the engine.
Extension Cable
When electric power is to be provided to various tools or loads at
some distance from the welder/AC generator, extension cords
are normally used. Cables should be sized to allow for distance
in length and amperage so that the voltage drop between the
welder/AC generator and point of use (load) is held to a
minimum. Use the cable selection chart (Table 7 ) as a guide for
selecting proper cable size.
