WARNING
Mar ‘95
ELECTRIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDSmay be dangerous
2.a. Electric current flowing through any conductor causes localized Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF). Welding current creates EMF fields around welding cables and welding machines
2.b. EMF fields may interfere with some pacemakers, andwelders having a pacemaker should consult their physicianbefore welding.
2.c. Exposure to EMF fields in welding may have other healtheffects which are now not known.
2.d. All welders should use the following procedures in order tominimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit:
2.d.1. Route the electrode and work cables together - Securethem with tape when possible.
2.d.2. Never coil the electrode lead around your body.
2.d.3. Do not place your body between the electrode andwork cables. If the electrode cable is on your right side, the work cable should also be on your right side.
2.d.4. Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close aspossible to the area being welded.
2.d.5. Do not work next to welding power source.
1.h. To avoid scalding, do not remove theradiator pressure cap when the engine ishot.
For Diesel Engines: Diesel engine exhaust andsome of its constituents are known to the Stateof California to cause cancer, birth defects, andother reproductive harm.
For Gasoline Engines: The engine exhaust fromthis product contains chemicals known to theState of California to cause cancer, birth defects,or other reproductive harm.

ARC RAYS can burn.4.a. Use a shield with the proper filter and cover
plates to protect your eyes from sparks andthe rays of the arc when welding or observingopen arc welding. Headshield and filter lensshould conform to ANSI Z87. I standards.
4.b. Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistantmaterial to protect your skin and that of your helpers fromthe arc rays.
4.c. Protect other nearby personnel with suitable, non-flammablescreening and/or warn them not to watch the arc nor exposethemselves to the arc rays or to hot spatter or metal.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.3.a. The electrode and work (or ground) circuits
are electrically “hot” when the welder is on.Do not touch these “hot” parts with your bareskin or wet clothing. Wear dry, hole-freegloves to insulate hands.
3.b. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulation.Make certain the insulation is large enough to cover your fullarea of physical contact with work and ground.
In addition to the normal safety precautions, if weldingmust be performed under electrically hazardousconditions (in damp locations or while wearing wetclothing; on metal structures such as floors, gratings orscaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting,kneeling or lying, if there is a high risk of unavoidable oraccidental contact with the workpiece or ground) usethe following equipment:
• Semiautomatic DC Constant Voltage (Wire) Welder.• DC Manual (Stick) Welder.• AC Welder with Reduced Voltage Control.
3.c. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the electrode,electrode reel, welding head, nozzle or semiautomaticwelding gun are also electrically “hot”.
3.d. Always be sure the work cable makes a good electricalconnection with the metal being welded. The connectionshould be as close as possible to the area being welded.
3.e. Ground the work or metal to be welded to a good electrical(earth) ground.
3.f. Maintain the electrode holder, work clamp, welding cable andwelding machine in good, safe operating condition. Replacedamaged insulation.
3.g. Never dip the electrode in water for cooling.
3.h. Never simultaneously touch electrically “hot” parts ofelectrode holders connected to two welders because voltagebetween the two can be the total of the open circuit voltageof both welders.
3.i. When working above floor level, use a safety belt to protectyourself from a fall should you get a shock.
3.j. Also see Items 6.c. and 8.
FUMES AND GASEScan be dangerous.5.a. Welding may produce fumes and gases
hazardous to health. Avoid breathing thesefumes and gases.When welding, keepyour head out of the fume. Use enoughventilation and/or exhaust at the arc to keep
fumes and gases away from the breathing zone. Whenwelding with electrodes which require specialventilation such as stainless or hard facing (seeinstructions on container or MSDS) or on lead orcadmium plated steel and other metals or coatingswhich produce highly toxic fumes, keep exposure aslow as possible and below Threshold Limit Values (TLV)using local exhaust or mechanical ventilation. Inconfined spaces or in some circumstances, outdoors, arespirator may be required. Additional precautions arealso required when welding on galvanized steel.
5.b. Do not weld in locations near chlorinated hydrocarbon vaporscoming from degreasing, cleaning or spraying operations.The heat and rays of the arc can react with solvent vapors toform phosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritating products.
5.c. Shielding gases used for arc welding can displace air andcause injury or death. Always use enough ventilation,especially in confined areas, to insure breathing air is safe.
5.d. Read and understand the manufacturer’s instructions for thisequipment and the consumables to be used, including thematerial safety data sheet (MSDS) and follow youremployer’s safety practices. MSDS forms are available fromyour welding distributor or from the manufacturer.
5.e. Also see item 1.b. Mar ‘95

8.b. Install equipment in accordance with the U.S. NationalElectrical Code, all local codes and the manufacturer’srecommendations.
8.c. Ground the equipment in accordance with the U.S. NationalElectrical Code and the manufacturer’s recommendations.
CYLINDER may explodeif damaged.7.a. Use only compressed gas cylinders
containing the correct shielding gas for theprocess used and properly operatingregulators designed for the gas and
pressure used. All hoses, fittings, etc. should be suitable forthe application and maintained in good condition.
7.b. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securelychained to an undercarriage or fixed support.
7.c. Cylinders should be located:• Away from areas where they may be struck or subjected tophysical damage.
• A safe distance from arc welding or cutting operations andany other source of heat, sparks, or flame.
7.d. Never allow the electrode, electrode holder or any otherelectrically “hot” parts to touch a cylinder.
7.e. Keep your head and face away from the cylinder valve outletwhen opening the cylinder valve.
7.f. Valve protection caps should always be in place and handtight except when the cylinder is in use or connected foruse.
7.g. Read and follow the instructions on compressed gascylinders, associated equipment, and CGA publication P-l,“Precautions for Safe Handling of Compressed Gases inCylinders,” available from the Compressed Gas Association1235 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202.

WELDING SPARKS cancause fire or explosion.6.a. Remove fire hazards from the welding area.
If this is not possible, cover them to preventthe welding sparks from starting a fire.Remember that welding sparks and hot
materials from welding can easily go through small cracksand openings to adjacent areas. Avoid welding nearhydraulic lines. Have a fire extinguisher readily available.
6.b. Where compressed gases are to be used at the job site,special precautions should be used to prevent hazardoussituations. Refer to “Safety in Welding and Cutting” (ANSIStandard Z49.1) and the operating information for theequipment being used.
6.c. When not welding, make certain no part of the electrodecircuit is touching the work or ground. Accidental contact cancause overheating and create a fire hazard.
6.d. Do not heat, cut or weld tanks, drums or containers until theproper steps have been taken to insure that such procedureswill not cause flammable or toxic vapors from substancesinside. They can cause an explosion even though they havebeen “cleaned”. For information, purchase “RecommendedSafe Practices for the Preparation for Welding and Cutting ofContainers and Piping That Have Held HazardousSubstances”, AWS F4.1 from the American Welding Society(see address above).
6.e. Vent hollow castings or containers before heating, cutting orwelding. They may explode.
6.f. Sparks and spatter are thrown from the welding arc. Wear oilfree protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt,cuffless trousers, high shoes and a cap over your hair. Wearear plugs when welding out of position or in confined places.Always wear safety glasses with side shields when in awelding area.
6.g. Connect the work cable to the work as close to the weldingarea as practical. Work cables connected to the buildingframework or other locations away from the welding areaincrease the possibility of the welding current passingthrough lifting chains, crane cables or other alternate circuits.This can create fire hazards or overheat lifting chains orcables until they fail.

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉPour votre propre protection lire et observer toutes les instructionset les précautions de sûreté specifiques qui parraissent dans cemanuel aussi bien que les précautions de sûreté générales suiv-antes:
Sûreté Pour Soudage A L’Arc1. Protegez-vous contre la secousse électrique:
a. Les circuits à l’électrode et à la piéce sont sous tensionquand la machine à souder est en marche. Eviter toujourstout contact entre les parties sous tension et la peau nueou les vétements mouillés. Porter des gants secs et sanstrous pour isoler les mains.
b. Faire trés attention de bien s’isoler de la masse quand onsoude dans des endroits humides, ou sur un plancher met-allique ou des grilles metalliques, principalement dans les positions assis ou couché pour lesquelles une grandepartie du corps peut être en contact avec la masse.
c. Maintenir le porte-électrode, la pince de masse, le câble desoudage et la machine à souder en bon et sûr état defonc-tionnement.
d.Ne jamais plonger le porte-électrode dans l’eau pour lerefroidir.
e. Ne jamais toucher simultanément les parties sous tensiondes porte-électrodes connectés à deux machines à soud-er parce que la tension entre les deux pinces peut être letotal de la tension à vide des deux machines.
f. Si on utilise la machine à souder comme une source decourant pour soudage semi-automatique, ces precautionspour le porte-électrode s’applicuent aussi au pistolet desoudage.
2. Dans le cas de travail au dessus du niveau du sol, se protégercontre les chutes dans le cas ou on recoit un choc. Ne jamaisenrouler le câble-électrode autour de n’importe quelle partiedu corps.
3. Un coup d’arc peut être plus sévère qu’un coup de soliel,donc:
a. Utiliser un bon masque avec un verre filtrant appropriéainsi qu’un verre blanc afin de se protéger les yeux du ray-onnement de l’arc et des projections quand on soude ouquand on regarde l’arc.
b. Porter des vêtements convenables afin de protéger la peaude soudeur et des aides contre le rayonnement de l‘arc.
c. Protéger l’autre personnel travaillant à proximité ausoudage à l’aide d’écrans appropriés et non-inflammables.
4. Des gouttes de laitier en fusion sont émises de l’arc desoudage. Se protéger avec des vêtements de protection libresde l’huile, tels que les gants en cuir, chemise épaisse, pan-talons sans revers, et chaussures montantes.
5. Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité dans la zone desoudage. Utiliser des lunettes avec écrans lateraux dans leszones où l’on pique le laitier.
6. Eloigner les matériaux inflammables ou les recouvrir afin deprévenir tout risque d’incendie dû aux étincelles.
7. Quand on ne soude pas, poser la pince à une endroit isolé dela masse. Un court-circuit accidental peut provoquer unéchauffement et un risque d’incendie.
8. S’assurer que la masse est connectée le plus prés possible dela zone de travail qu’il est pratique de le faire. Si on place lamasse sur la charpente de la construction ou d’autres endroitséloignés de la zone de travail, on augmente le risque de voirpasser le courant de soudage par les chaines de levage,câbles de grue, ou autres circuits. Cela peut provoquer desrisques d’incendie ou d’echauffement des chaines et descâbles jusqu’à ce qu’ils se rompent.
9. Assurer une ventilation suffisante dans la zone de soudage.Ceci est particuliérement important pour le soudage de tôlesgalvanisées plombées, ou cadmiées ou tout autre métal quiproduit des fumeés toxiques.
10. Ne pas souder en présence de vapeurs de chlore provenantd’opérations de dégraissage, nettoyage ou pistolage. Lachaleur ou les rayons de l’arc peuvent réagir avec les vapeursdu solvant pour produire du phosgéne (gas fortement toxique)ou autres produits irritants.
11. Pour obtenir de plus amples renseignements sur la sûreté, voirle code “Code for safety in welding and cutting” CSA StandardW 117.2-1974.
PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ POURLES MACHINES À SOUDER ÀTRANSFORMATEUR ET ÀREDRESSEUR
1. Relier à la terre le chassis du poste conformement au code del’électricité et aux recommendations du fabricant. Le dispositifde montage ou la piece à souder doit être branché à unebonne mise à la terre.
2. Autant que possible, I’installation et l’entretien du poste seronteffectués par un électricien qualifié.
3. Avant de faires des travaux à l’interieur de poste, la debranch-er à l’interrupteur à la boite de fusibles.
4. Garder tous les couvercles et dispositifs de sûreté à leurplace.

WELDING OUTPUT CABLES
With the engine off, route the electrode and workcables thru the strain relief bracket provided on thefront of the base and connect to the terminals provid-ed. These connections should be checked periodicallyand tightened if necessary.
Listed in Table A.1 are copper cable sizes recom-mended for the rated current and duty cycle. Lengthsstipulated are the distance from the welder to work andback to the welder again. Cable sizes are increased forgreater lengths primarily for the purpose of minimizingcable voltage drop.
Table A.1 Combined Length of Electrode and WorkCables.
MACHINE GROUNDING
Because this portable engine driven welder creates itsown power, it is not necessary to connect its frame toan earth ground, unless the machine is connected topremises wiring (home, shop, etc.).
To prevent dangerous electric shock, other equipmentpowered by this engine driven welder must:
a) be grounded to the frame of the welder using agrounded type plug,
orb) be double insulated.
When this welder is mounted on a truck or trailer, itsframe must be securely connected to the metal frameof the vehicle. When this engine driven welder is con-nected to premises wiring such as that in a home orshop, its frame must be connected to the system earthground. See further connection instructions in the sec-tion entitled “Standby Power Connections” as well asthe article on grounding in the latest U.S. NationalElectrical Code and the local code.
In general, if the machine is to be grounded, it shouldbe connected with a #8 or larger copper wire to a solidearth ground such as a metal water pipe going into theground for at least ten feet and having no insulated
joints, or to the metal framework of a building whichhas been effectively grounded. The U.S. NationalElectrical Code lists a number of alternate means ofgrounding electrical equipment. A machine groundingstud marked with the symbol is provided on thefront of the welder.
AUXILIARY POWER RECEPTACLES
The auxiliary power capacity of the Commander 500 is12,000 watts of 60 Hz, single phase power. The auxil-iary power capacity rating in watts is equivalent to volt-amperes at unity power factor. The maximum permis-sible current of the 240 VAC output is 50 A. The 240VAC output can be split to provide two separate 120VAC outputs with a maximum permissible current of 50A per output to two separate 120 VAC branch circuits.The output voltage is within ± 10% at all loads up torated capacity.
NOTE: The 120/240V receptacle has two 120V outletsof different phases and cannot be paralleled.
The Commander has two 20 Amp-120VAC (5-20R)duplex receptacles and one 50 Amp-120/240 VAC (14-50R) receptacle. The 120/240 VAC receptacle can besplit for single phase 120 VAC operation. The auxiliarypower receptacles should only be used with three wiregrounded type plugs or approved double insulatedtools with two wire plugs. The current rating of any plugused with the system must be at least equal to the cur-rent capacity of the associated receptacle.
STANDBY POWER CONNECTIONS
The Commander 500 is suitable for temporary, stand-by or emergency power using the engine manufactur-er’s recommended maintenance schedule.
The Commander 500 can be permanently installed asa standby power unit for 240 volt-3 wire, 50 amp ser-vice. Connections must be made by a licensed electri-cian who can determine how the 120/240 VAC powercan be adapted to the particular installation and com-ply with all applicable electrical codes. The followinginformation can be used as a guide by the electricianfor most applications. Refer to the connection diagramshown in Figure A.2.

25. ARC CONTROLThe “ARC CONTROL” potentiometer is active in twomodes: “STICK / CC “ and “WIRE WELDING” with dif-ferent purposes in each mode.
“STICK / CC” mode: In this mode, the “ARC CON-TROL” knob sets the short circuit current during stickwelding. Increasing the number from 1 to 10 increasesthe short circuit current. This prevents sticking of theelectrode to the plate at low welding current settings.This also increases spatter. It is recommended that thecontrol be set to the minimum number without elec-trode sticking.
“WIRE WELDING” mode: In this mode increasing thenumber from 1 to 10 changes the arc from soft andwashed in to crisp and narrow. It acts as an inductancecontrol. The proper setting depends on the applicationand operator preference.In general, Mig welding performs best in the “SOFT”range and Innershield in the “CRISP” range.

1. Open the engine compartment door and check thatthe fuel shutoff valve located to the left of the fuel fil-ter housing is in the open position (lever to be in linewith the hose).
2. Check for proper oil level on the oil dipstick. Closeengine compartment door.
3. Remove all plugs connected to the AC power receptacles.
4. Set IDLER switch to “AUTO”.
5. Set the RUN/STOP switch to “RUN”. Observe that allengine protection lights momentarily turn on, some lightsmay turn off before starting. Check the fuel gauge(K1639-2 only) to make sure that there is an adequatefuel level.
6. Press and hold the engine START button for a minimumof 2 seconds.
7. Release the engine START button when the engine starts.
8. Check that the indicator lights are off. If the LOW FUEL light ison (K1639-2 only) , the engine will shutdown 30 minutes afterstarting. If any other indicator light is on after starting, theengine will shutdown in a few seconds. Investigate any indi-cated problem.
9. Allow the engine to warm up at low idle speed for severalminutes before applying a load and/or switching to highidle. Allow a longer warm up time in cold weather.
COLD WEATHER STARTING
With a fully charged battery and the proper weight oil,the engine should start satisfactorily even down toabout 0°F. If the engine must be frequently startedbelow 10°F, it may be desirable to install the optionalether starter kit (K825-1). Installation and operatinginstructions are included in the kit.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
1. Switch the RUN/STOP switch to “STOP”. This turnsoff the voltage supplied to the shutdown solenoid. Abackup shutdown can be accomplished by shuttingoff the fuel valve located on the fuel line.

BREAK-IN PERIOD
The engine used to supply power for your welder is aheavy duty, industrial engine. It is designed and builtfor rugged use. It is very normal for any engine to usesmall quantities of oil until the break-in is accom-plished. Check the oil level twice a day during thebreak-in period (about 200 running hours).
IMPORTANT
IN ORDER TO ACCOMPLISH THIS BREAK-IN, THEUNIT SHOULD BE SUBJECTED TO HEAVY LOADS,WITHIN THE RATING OF THE MACHINE. AVOIDLONG IDLE RUNNING PERIODS.

WELDER OPERATION
STICK WELDING
The Commander 500 can be used with a broad rangeof DC stick electrodes.
The SELECTOR switch provides five overlappingslope controlled current ranges. The CONTROLadjusts the current from minimum to maximum withineach range. Voltage is also controlled by the CON-TROL in the slope controlled setting. These slope con-trolled settings are intended for “out-of-position” weld-
ing, including pipe welding, where the operator wouldlike to control the current level by changing the arclength.
PIPE WELDING
The Commander 500 is equipped with special circuitryto minimize pop-outs in the five slope modes at anyopen circuit voltage.
For a soft arc characteristic, set the "SELECTOR"Switch to the lowest setting that still provides the cur-rent you need and set the "CONTROL" near maximum.For example: to obtain 140 amps and a soft arc, setthe " SELECTOR" Switch to the "150 MAX" positionand then adjust the " CONTROL" for 140 amps.
When a forceful "digging" arc is required, use a highersetting and lower the open circuit voltage. For example:to obtain 140 amps and a forceful arc, set the “ SELEC-TOR” to the "250 MAX" position and then adjust the "CONTROL" to get 140 amps.
CONSTANT CURRENT (CC) WELDING
The STICK-CC position of “30 to 575", the "SELEC-TOR" Switch is designed for horizontal welds with alltypes of electrodes especially low hydrogen. The" CONTROL" adjusts the full range of 30 to 575 amps.This setting provides a soft, constant current arc. If amore forceful arc is desired, then select the properrange from the slope controlled current ranges.
In the CC mode, sticking can be prevented by adjust-ing the “ARC CONTROL”. Turning this control clock-wise, increases the short circuit current, thus prevent-ing sticking. This is another way of increasing arc force.
TIG WELDING
The most clockwise position of the SELECTOR switchis for TIG welding in the range of 15 amps to 200 amps,with a “Touch Start” feature.To initiate a weld, the CON-TROL is first set to the desired current and the tung-sten is touched to the work. During the time the tung-sten is touching the work there is very little voltage orcurrent and, in general, no tungsten contamination.Then, the tungsten is gently lifted off the work in a rock-ing motion, which establishes the arc.
The Commander 500 can be used in a wide variety ofDC Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding applications. Ingeneral the “Touch Start” feature allows contaminationfree starting without the use of a Hi-Freq unit. But theK930-1 or -2 TIG module or K799 Hi-Freq unit, can beused with the Commander 500. The settings for thesefollow the tungsten current range table.

AUXILIARY POWER OPERATION
Start the engine and set the IDLER control switch tothe desired operating mode. Full power is availableregardless of the welding control settings, if no weldingcurrent is being drawn.
The auxiliary power of the Commander consists of two20 Amp-120VAC (5-20R) duplex receptacles and one50 Amp-120/240 VAC (14-50R) receptacle. The120/240VAC receptacle can be split for single phase120 VAC operation.
The auxiliary power capacity is 12,000 watts of 60 Hz,single phase power.The auxiliary power capacity ratingin watts is equivalent to volt-amperes at unity powerfactor. The maximum permissible current of the 240VAC output is 50 A. The 240 VAC output can be split toprovide two separate 120 VAC outputs with a maximumpermissible current of 50 A per output to two separate120 VAC branch circuits. Output voltage is within ±10% at all loads up to rated capacity.
NOTE: The 120/240V receptacle has two 120V out-puts of different phases and cannot be paralleled.
The auxiliary power receptacles should only be usedwith three wire grounded type plugs or approved dou-ble insulated tools with two wire plugs.
The current rating of any plug used with the systemmust be at least equal to the current capacity of theassociated receptacle.
SIMULTANEOUS WELDING AND AUXIL-IARY POWER LOADS
It must be noted that the above auxiliary power ratingsare with no welding load. Simultaneous welding andpower loads are specified in table B.4. The permissiblecurrents shown assume that current is being drawnfrom either the 120 VAC or 240 VAC supply (not both atthe same time).

FUEL FILTERS
When working on the fuel system
• Keep naked lights away, do not smoke !
• Do not spill fuel !
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Commander 500 is equipped with a Fuel Pre-Filter/Water Separator Assembly located before thelift pump and a Secondary Fuel Filter located after thelift pump and before the fuel injectors. The Fuel Pre-Filter/Water Separator is mounted to the engine blockjust below the lift pump. The Secondary Fuel Filter ismounted directly to the engine just above the oil filter.
FUEL PRE-FILTER/WATER SEPARATOR ASSEM-BLY
The pre-filter is a 150 micron screen designed to pro-tect against gross fuel contamination of the water sep-arator element and the Secondary Fuel Filter. If thepre-filter becomes plugged it may be removed, inspect-ed, cleaned and reinstalled. In general this only needsto be done with each water separator element change(about every 1,000 hrs.) However if at any time exces-sive fuel contamination is suspected or a sudden fall-off in engine performance is detected the pre-filterscreen should be inspected and cleaned. Follow thefollowing procedure:
1. Close the fuel shutoff valve (Lever should be per-pendicular to the hose) located on the side of theFuel Pre-Filter/Water Separator Assembly.
2. Unscrew the cap ring located on the top of the filterheader and remove the plastic center cap and O-ring.
3. Remove the large white volume plug located direct-ly under the center cap in the upper cavity of the fil-ter header. Use a small screwdriver (or similardevice) to lift the plug part way out of the cavity toassist with its removal.
Be careful not to damage the pre-filter screen withthe tool used to remove the plug.
4. Using a pair of pliers, gently tug on the pull tabs ofthe pre-filter screen in an alternating pattern togradually remove the pre-filter screen.
5. Brush off any debris and rinse in diesel fuel.
6. Re-install the pre-filter screen into the upper cavityof the filter header making sure the four pull tabsare pointing up. Putting your fingers on the pull tabs,push down evenly until the lower body of the pre-fil-ter screen contacts the floor of the upper cavity.
7. Re-insert the large white volume plug into the uppercavity.
8. Place the O-ring onto the angled seal surface of thefilter header and re-install the plastic cap. Make sureits flange rests on the O-ring.
9. Screw on the cap ring and tighten hand tight.
10. Remember to open the fuel shutoff valve (Lever inline with the hose) before starting the engine.
WATER SEPARATOR ELEMENT
The water separator element is a two stage filter with aspecial filtration/water separating media, and anexpanded water reservoir providing maximum protec-tion against water in the fuel. The recommendedchange interval for the water separator element is1,000 hours. The procedure for changing the elementis as follows:
1. Close the fuel shutoff valve (Lever should be per-pendicular to the hose) located on the side of theFuel Pre-Filter/Water Separator Assembly.
2. Rotate the quick change ring (located just below fil-ter header) clockwise approximately 1/2 turn andslide it down and off of the element.
3. Grasp the element and pull down with a slight rock-ing motion to remove the element from the grommetpost on the bottom of the filter header.
WARNING
D-3MAINTENANCED-3
COMMANDER 500
4. Slide the new element onto the grommet post on thebottom of the filter header until the element no longereasily moves up into the filter header. Now rotate theelement (may take almost 1 full turn) with a slightupward pressure until the element begins to furtherengage the header. With the proper orientation nowestablished apply additional pressure to seat the ele-ment in the filter header. You should feel the element“pop” into place when properly seated.
Note: The element will only go on one way. Never useexcessive force when mounting the element to theheader.
5. Slide the quick change ring up over the element androtate counter clockwise until an audible click or popis heard. If you do not hear the click you have not rotat-ed the ring far enough and the element is not in thelocked position. Another indication that the ring is inthe locked position is that one set (it doesn’t matterwhich one) of arrows located on the outside of the ringshould be located directly under the air vent valve.
6. Open the fuel shutoff valve (lever in line with the hose).
7. Open the air vent valve on the front of the filter headeruntil fuel emerges free of air bubbles and then closethe air vent valve.
Note : Consult your engine operation manual for informa-tion on air -bleeding the entire fuel system.
SECONDARY FUEL FILTER
The Secondary Fuel Filter is a spin on cartridge typemount directly to the engine. Consult your engine opera-tion manual for complete information on service intervalsand element changing procedures.
COOLING SYSTEMThe cooling system of the Deutz engine needs to bechecked and cleaned periodically. Consult the engineowners manual for the proper frequency and procedure.
COOLING BLOWER BELTThe following procedure should be followed to replace thecooling blower belt:
1. Allow the machine to cool.
2. Unfasten and slide the battery holder out from the welder.
3. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
4. Remove engine case side.
5. Loosen air cleaner hose clamp and detach hose.
6. Remove the engine end panel with air box and air clean-er attached for access to the engine.
