6-2. Description Of Controls (See Section 6-1)

1
Engine Switch
Use switch to control ignition circuit, and to

To Start:
D Open fuel valve (see Section 5-4).
D Turn Engine switch to On.
D Set Choke control.

6-3. Amperage Selection Table For Stick (SMAW) Electrodes

Values listed are suggested settings. Actual settings may vary depending on personal preference and/or specific application.
Suggested electrode for beginners is E6013.

6-4. Cold Weather Operation

When temperatures are below 40°F (4°C) and humidity is high, the engine may experience icing of the carburetor and/or the
crankcase breather system, causing operating problems such as stalling. Briggs & Stratton (1-800-444-7774) offers a heat shield
(Briggs & Stratton Part No. 795886) for cold weather operation. The user can install this kit for cold weather operation.

may be adjusted while welding. Set Amper-
age control at max. for full generator power
output at ac receptacles.
To Set Amperage control: Use electrode
chart (see Section 6-3) to determine correct
size electrode. Select electrode type and set
Amperage control to corresponding amper-
age range on nameplate. Adjust control within
selected range to obtain desired weld
performance.
EXAMPLE:
Electrode Type: 6013
Electrode Diameter: 1/8
Amperage control Setting: 80 − 120 A
