Lincoln Electric IM612 RANGER 8 + DIESEL - Manual (Page 24)

B-9 OPERATION B-9
RANGER 8+ DIESEL
AUXILIARY POWER
The RANGER 8+ DIESEL can provide up to 9,000
watts of 115/230 volts AC, Single phase 60 HZ power
for continuous use. The front of the machine includes
three receptacles for connecting AC power Plugs, one
50 amp 115/230 volt NEMA 14-50R receptacle and
two 15 amp 115 volt NEMA 5-15R 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.
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. Larger motors through 2 hp can be
run provided the receptacle rating as previously stated
is not exceeded. This may necessitate 230 volt oper-
ation only.
SIMULTANEOUS WELDING AND POWER
LOADS
Auxiliary power ratings are with no welding load.
Simultaneous welding and power loads are permitted
by the following table. The permissible currents
shown assume that current is being drawn from either
the 115 volt or 230 volt supply (not both at the same
time).

NOTE: Voltage and permissible watts decrease as "CONTROL" is adjusted to settings less than 10. It is recommended that
at settings less than 10, only incandescent lighting loads be connected to the auxiliary power receptacles.
