AUXILIARY POWER:
If a GFCI receptacle is tripped, See the MAINTE-
NANCE section for detailed information on testing and
resetting the GFCI receptacle.
Start the engine and set the IDLER control switch to
the desired operating mode. Full power is available
regardless of the welding control settings providing no
welding current is being drawn.
The auxiliary power of the RANGER® 305D consists
of two 20 Amp-120 VAC GFCI (5-20R) duplex recep-
tacles and one 50 Amp 120/240 VAC (14-50R) recep-
tacle. The 240 VAC receptacle can be split for single
phase 120 VAC operation. The auxiliary power capac-
ity is 10,000 watts Peak, 9500 Watts continuous of 60
Hz, single phase power. The auxiliary power capacity
rating in watts is equivalent to volt-amperes at unity
power factor. The max permissible current of the 240
VAC output is 44 Amps. The 240 VAC output can be
split to provide two separate 120 VAC outputs with a
max permissible current of 44 Amps per output to two
separate 120 VAC branch circuits (these circuits can-
not be paralleled). Output voltage is within ± 10% at
all loads up to rated capacity. All auxiliary power is
protected by circuit breakers.
The 120 V 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 capacity of the associated
receptacle.
NOTE: The 240 V receptacle has two circuits, each of
which measure 120 V to neutral but are of opposite
polarities and cannot be paralleled.
Simultaneous Welding and Auxiliary Power Loads
The above auxiliary power ratings are with no welding
load. Simultaneous welding and power loads are
specified in the following table. The permissible cur-
rents shown assume that current is being drawn from
either the 120 VAC or 240 VAC supply (not both at the
same time).
