PRE-OPERATION SERVICE
READ the engine operating and maintenance
instructions supplied with this machine.
OIL
The ZR-10 is shipped with the engine crankcase filled
with SAE 10W-30 oil. Check the oil level before start-
ing the engine. If it is not up to the full mark on the dip
stick, add oil as required. Make certain that the oil filler
cap is tightened securely. Refer to the engine Owner’s
Manual for specific oil recommendations.
FUEL
Fill the fuel tank with clean, fresh, lead-free gasoline.
Observe fuel gauge while filling to prevent overfilling.
BATTERY CONNECTIONS
This welder is shipped with the negative battery cable
disconnected. Make sure that the Engine Switch is in
the “STOP” position and attach the disconnected
cable securely to the negative battery terminal before
attempting to operate the machine. If the battery is
discharged and does not have enough power to start
the engine, see the battery charging instructions in the
Battery section.
WELDING OUTPUT CABLES
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.
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.
Connect the work cable directly to the work piece.
Do not allow welding current to return through
electrical conduit, pipes or building structures
that are not suitable to carry welding current. Do
not connect the work cable to the welding frame.
Stray welding currents may also damage auxiliary
power cords or equipment.
