SAFETY  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
ARC RAYS can burn.  
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 bare  
skin or wet clothing. Wear dry, hole-free  
gloves to insulate hands.  
4.a. Use a shield with the proper filter and cover  
plates to protect your eyes from sparks and  
the rays of the arc when welding or observing  
open arc welding. Headshield and filter lens  
should conform to ANSI Z87. I standards.  
3.b. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulation.  
Make certain the insulation is large enough to cover your full  
area of physical contact with work and ground.  
4.b. Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistant  
material to protect your skin and that of your helpers from  
the arc rays.  
4.c. Protect other nearby personnel with suitable, non-flammable  
screening and/or warn them not to watch the arc nor expose  
themselves to the arc rays or to hot spatter or metal.  
In addition to the normal safety precautions, if welding  
must be performed under electrically hazardous  
conditions (in damp locations or while wearing wet  
clothing; on metal structures such as floors, gratings or  
scaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting,  
kneeling or lying, if there is a high risk of unavoidable or  
accidental contact with the workpiece or ground) use  
the following equipment:  
FUMES AND GASES  
can be dangerous.  
5.a. Welding may produce fumes and gases  
hazardous to health. Avoid breathing these

your head out of the fume. Use enough  
ventilation and/or exhaust at the arc to keep  
3.c. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the electrode,  
electrode reel, welding head, nozzle or semiautomatic  
welding gun are also electrically “hot”.  
fumes and gases away from the breathing zone. When  
welding with electrodes which require special  
ventilation such as stainless or hard facing (see  
instructions on container or MSDS) or on lead or  
cadmium plated steel and other metals or coatings  
which produce highly toxic fumes, keep exposure as  
low as possible and within applicable OSHA PEL and  
ACGIH TLV limits using local exhaust or mechanical ven-  
tilation. In confined spaces or in some circumstances,  
outdoors, a respirator may be required. Additional pre-  
cautions are also required when welding on galvanized  
steel.  
3.d. Always be sure the work cable makes a good electrical  
connection with the metal being welded. The connection  
should 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 and  
welding machine in good, safe operating condition. Replace  
damaged insulation.  
5. b. The operation of welding fume control equipment is affected  
by various factors including proper use and positioning of the  
equipment, maintenance of the equipment and the specific  
welding procedure and application involved. Worker expo-  
sure level should be checked upon installation and periodi-  
cally thereafter to be certain it is within applicable OSHA PEL  
and ACGIH TLV limits.  
3.g. Never dip the electrode in water for cooling.  
3.h. Never simultaneously touch electrically “hot” parts of  
electrode holders connected to two welders because voltage  
between the two can be the total of the open circuit voltage  
of both welders.  
5.c. Do not weld in locations near chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors  
coming from degreasing, cleaning or spraying operations.  
The heat and rays of the arc can react with solvent vapors to  
form phosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritating prod-  
ucts.  
3.i. When working above floor level, use a safety belt to protect  
yourself from a fall should you get a shock.  
3.j. Also see Items 6.c. and 8.  
5.d. Shielding gases used for arc welding can displace air and  
cause injury or death. Always use enough ventilation,  
especially in confined areas, to insure breathing air is safe.  
5.e. Read and understand the manufacturerʼs instructions for this  
equipment and the consumables to be used, including the  
material safety data sheet (MSDS) and follow your  
employerʼs safety practices. MSDS forms are available from  
your welding distributor or from the manufacturer.

lines. Have a fire extinguisher readily available.  
process used and properly operating  
regulators designed for the gas and  
pressure used. All hoses, fittings, etc. should be suitable for  
the application and maintained in good condition.  
7.b. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securely  
chained to an undercarriage or fixed support.  
6.b. Where compressed gases are to be used at the job site,  
special precautions should be used to prevent hazardous  
situations. Refer to “Safety in Welding and Cutting” (ANSI  
Standard Z49.1) and the operating information for the  
equipment being used.  
7.c. Cylinders should be located:  
Away from areas where they may be struck or subjected to  
physical damage.  
•A safe distance from arc welding or cutting operations and  
any other source of heat, sparks, or flame.  
6.c. When not welding, make certain no part of the electrode  
circuit is touching the work or ground. Accidental contact can  
cause overheating and create a fire hazard.  
7.d. Never allow the electrode, electrode holder or any other  
electrically “hot” parts to touch a cylinder.  
6.d. Do not heat, cut or weld tanks, drums or containers until the  
proper steps have been taken to insure that such procedures  
will not cause flammable or toxic vapors from substances  
inside. They can cause an explosion even though they have  
been “cleaned”. For information, purchase “Recommended  
Safe Practices for the Preparation for Welding and Cutting of  
Containers and Piping That Have Held Hazardous  
Substances”, AWS F4.1 from the American Welding Society  
(see address above).  
7.e. Keep your head and face away from the cylinder valve outlet  
when opening the cylinder valve.  
7.f. Valve protection caps should always be in place and hand  
tight except when the cylinder is in use or connected for  
use.  
7.g. Read and follow the instructions on compressed gas  
cylinders, associated equipment, and CGA publication P-l,  
“Precautions for Safe Handling of Compressed Gases in  
Cylinders,” available from the Compressed Gas Association  
1235 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202.  
6.e. Vent hollow castings or containers before heating, cutting or  
welding. They may explode.  
6.f. Sparks and spatter are thrown from the welding arc. Wear oil  
free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt,  
cuffless trousers, high shoes and a cap over your hair. Wear  
ear plugs when welding out of position or in confined places.  
Always wear safety glasses with side shields when in a  
welding area.

powered equipment.  
8.a. Turn off input power using the disconnect  
switch at the fuse box before working on  
the equipment.  
6.g. Connect the work cable to the work as close to the welding  
area as practical. Work cables connected to the building  
framework or other locations away from the welding area  
increase the possibility of the welding current passing through  
lifting chains, crane cables or other alternate circuits. This can  
create fire hazards or overheat lifting chains or cables until  
they fail.

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ  
prévenir tout risque dʼincendie dû aux étincelles.  
Pour votre propre protection lire et observer toutes les instructions  
et les précautions de sûreté specifiques qui parraissent dans ce  
manuel aussi bien que les précautions de sûreté générales suiv-  
antes:  
7. Quand on ne soude pas, poser la pince à une endroit isolé de  
la masse. Un court-circuit accidental peut provoquer un  
échauffement et un risque dʼincendie.  
8. Sʼassurer que la masse est connectée le plus prés possible de  
la zone de travail quʼil est pratique de le faire. Si on place la  
masse sur la charpente de la construction ou dʼautres endroits  
éloignés de la zone de travail, on augmente le risque de voir  
passer le courant de soudage par les chaines de levage,  
câbles de grue, ou autres circuits. Cela peut provoquer des  
risques dʼincendie ou dʼechauffement des chaines et des  
câbles jusquʼà ce quʼils se rompent.  
Sûreté Pour Soudage A LʼArc  
1. Protegez-vous contre la secousse électrique:  
a. Les circuits à lʼélectrode et à la piéce sont sous tension  
quand la machine à souder est en marche. Eviter toujours  
tout contact entre les parties sous tension et la peau nue  
ou les vétements mouillés. Porter des gants secs et sans  
trous pour isoler les mains.  
b. Faire trés attention de bien sʼisoler de la masse quand on  
soude dans des endroits humides, ou sur un plancher met-  
allique ou des grilles metalliques, principalement dans  
les positions assis ou couché pour lesquelles une grande  
partie du corps peut être en contact avec la masse.  
c. Maintenir le porte-électrode, la pince de masse, le câble de  
soudage et la machine à souder en bon et sûr état defonc-  
tionnement.  
9. Assurer une ventilation suffisante dans la zone de soudage.  
Ceci est particuliérement important pour le soudage de tôles  
galvanisées plombées, ou cadmiées ou tout autre métal qui  
produit des fumeés toxiques.  
10. Ne pas souder en présence de vapeurs de chlore provenant  
dʼopérations de dégraissage, nettoyage ou pistolage. La  
chaleur ou les rayons de lʼarc peuvent réagir avec les vapeurs  
du solvant pour produire du phosgéne (gas fortement toxique)  
ou autres produits irritants.  
d.Ne jamais plonger le porte-électrode dans lʼeau pour le  
refroidir.  
e. Ne jamais toucher simultanément les parties sous tension  
des porte-électrodes connectés à deux machines à souder  
parce que la tension entre les deux pinces peut être le total  
de la tension à vide des deux machines.  
f. Si on utilise la machine à souder comme une source de  
courant pour soudage semi-automatique, ces precautions  
pour le porte-électrode sʼapplicuent aussi au pistolet de  
soudage.  
11. Pour obtenir de plus amples renseignements sur la sûreté, voir  
le code “Code for safety in welding and cutting” CSA Standard  
W 117.2-1974.  
PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ POUR  
LES MACHINES À SOUDER À  
TRANSFORMATEUR ET À  
REDRESSEUR  
2. Dans le cas de travail au dessus du niveau du sol, se protéger  
contre les chutes dans le cas ou on recoit un choc. Ne jamais  
enrouler le câble-électrode autour de nʼimporte quelle partie du  
corps.  
3. Un coup dʼarc peut être plus sévère quʼun coup de soliel, donc:  
a. Utiliser un bon masque avec un verre filtrant approprié ainsi  
quʼun verre blanc afin de se protéger les yeux du rayon-  
nement de lʼarc et des projections quand on soude ou  
quand on regarde lʼarc.  
b. Porter des vêtements convenables afin de protéger la peau  
de soudeur et des aides contre le rayonnement de lʻarc.  
c. Protéger lʼautre personnel travaillant à proximité au  
soudage à lʼaide dʼécrans appropriés et non-inflammables.  
1. Relier à la terre le chassis du poste conformement au code de  
lʼélectricité et aux recommendations du fabricant. Le dispositif  
de montage ou la piece à souder doit être branché à une  
bonne mise à la terre.  
2. Autant que possible, Iʼinstallation et lʼentretien du poste seront  
effectués par un électricien qualifié.  
3. Avant de faires des travaux à lʼinterieur de poste, la debranch-  
er à lʼinterrupteur à la boite de fusibles.  
4. Des gouttes de laitier en fusion sont émises de lʼarc de  
soudage. Se protéger avec des vêtements de protection libres  
de lʼhuile, tels que les gants en cuir, chemise épaisse, pan-  
talons sans revers, et chaussures montantes.  
4. Garder tous les couvercles et dispositifs de sûreté à leur place.  
5. Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité dans la zone de  
soudage. Utiliser des lunettes avec écrans lateraux dans les  
zones où lʼon pique le laitier.

SAFETY  
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)  
Conformance  
Products displaying the CE mark are in conformity with European Community Council Directive of 3 May  
1989 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to electromagnetic compatibility  
(89/336/EEC). It was manufactured in conformity with a national standard that implements a harmonized  
standard: EN 60974-10 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Product Standard for Arc Welding Equipment.  
It is for use with other Lincoln Electric equipment. It is designed for industrial and professional use.  
Introduction  
All electrical equipment generates small amounts of electromagnetic emission. Electrical emission may be  
transmitted through power lines or radiated through space, similar to a radio transmitter. When emissions  
are received by other equipment, electrical interference may result. Electrical emissions may affect many  
kinds of electrical equipment; other nearby welding equipment, radio and TV reception, numerical controlled  
machines, telephone systems, computers, etc. Be aware that interference may result and extra precautions  
may be required when a welding power source is used in a domestic establishment.  
Installation and Use  
The user is responsible for installing and using the welding equipment according to the manufacturerʼs  
instructions. If electromagnetic disturbances are detected then it shall be the responsibility of the user of the  
welding equipment to resolve the situation with the technical assistance of the manufacturer. In some cases  
this remedial action may be as simple as earthing (grounding) the welding circuit, see Note. In other cases  
it could involve construction of an electromagnetic screen enclosing the power source and the work com-  
plete with associated input filters. In all cases electromagnetic disturbances must be reduced to the point  
where they are no longer troublesome.  
Note: The welding circuit may or may not be earthed for safety reasons according to national  
codes. Changing the earthing arrangements should only be authorized by a person who is  
competent to access whether the changes will increase the risk of injury, e.g., by allowing  
parallel welding current return paths which may damage the earth circuits of other equip-  
ment.  
Assessment of Area  
Before installing welding equipment the user shall make an assessment of potential electromagnetic prob-  
lems in the surrounding area. The following shall be taken into account:  
a) other supply cables, control cables, signaling and telephone cables; above, below and adjacent to the  
welding equipment;  
b) radio and television transmitters and receivers;  
c) computer and other control equipment;  
d) safety critical equipment, e.g., guarding of industrial equipment;  
e) the health of the people around, e.g., the use of pacemakers and hearing aids;  
f) equipment used for calibration or measurement  
g) the immunity of other equipment in the environment. The user shall ensure that other equipment being  
used in the environment is compatible. This may require additional protection measures;  
h) the time of day that welding or other activities are to be carried out.

SAFETY  
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)  
The size of the surrounding area to be considered will depend on the structure of the building and other  
activities that are taking place. The surrounding area may extend beyond the boundaries of the premises.  
Methods of Reducing Emissions  
Mains Supply  
Welding equipment should be connected to the mains supply according to the manufacturerʼs recommen-  
dations. If interference occurs, it may be necessary to take additional precautions such as filtering of the  
mains supply. Consideration should be given to shielding the supply cable of permanently installed welding  
equipment, in metallic conduit or equivalent. Shielding should be electrically continuous throughout its  
length. The shielding should be connected to the welding power source so that good electrical contact is  
maintained between the conduit and the welding power source enclosure.  
Maintenance of the Welding Equipment  
The welding equipment should be routinely maintained according to the manufacturerʼs recommendations.  
All access and service doors and covers should be closed and properly fastened when the welding equip-  
ment is in operation. The welding equipment should not be modified in any way except for those changes  
and adjustments covered in the manufacturers instructions. In particular, the spark gaps of arc striking and  
stabilizing devices should be adjusted and maintained according to the manufacturerʼs recommendations.  
Welding Cables  
The welding cables should be kept as short as possible and should be positioned close together, running at  
or close to floor level.  
Equipotential Bonding  
Bonding of all metallic components in the welding installation and adjacent to it should be considered.  
However, metallic components bonded to the work piece will increase the risk that the operator could  
receive a shock by touching these metallic components and the electrode at the same time. The operator  
should be insulated from all such bonded metallic components.  
Earthing of the Workpiece  
Where the workpiece is not bonded to earth for electrical safety, not connected to earth because of its size  
and position, e.g., ships hull or building steelwork, a connection bonding the workpiece to earth may reduce  
emissions in some, but not all instances. Care should be taken to prevent the earthing of the workpiece  
increasing the risk of injury to users, or damage to other electrical equipment. Where necessary, the con-  
nection of the workpiece to earth should be made by a direct connection to the workpiece, but in some  
countries where direct connection is not permitted, the bonding should be achieved by suitable capaci-  
tance, selected according to national regulations.  
Screening and Shielding  
Selective screening and shielding of other cables and equipment in the surrounding area may alleviate  
problems of interference. Screening of the entire welding installation may be considered for special applica-  
1
tions.

Battery Charging  
ENGINE BREAK-IN  
WARNING  
Lincoln Electric selects high quality, heavy-duty indus-  
trial engines for the portable welding machines we  
offer. While it is normal to see a small amount of  
crankcase oil consumption during initial operation,  
excessive oil use, wetstacking (oil or tar like substance  
at the exhaust port), or excessive smoke is not normal.  
GASES FROM BATTERY can explode.  
• Keep sparks, flame and cigarettes  
away.  
BATTERY ACID can burn eyes and  
skin.  
Larger machines with a capacity of 350 amperes and  
higher, which are operated at low or no-load conditions  
for extended periods of time are especially susceptible  
to the conditions described above. To accomplish suc-  
cessful engine break-in, most diesel-powered equip-  
ment needs only to be run at a reasonably heavy load  
within the rating of the welder for some period of time  
during the engineʼs early life. However, if the welder is  
subjected to extensive light loading, occasional moder-  
ate to heavy loading of the engine may sometimes be  
necessary. Caution must be observed in correctly  
loading a diesel/generator unit.  
Wear gloves and eye protection and be  
careful when boosting, charging or work-  
ing near battery.  
To prevent EXPLOSION when:  
a) Installing a new battery - disconnect the  
negative cable from the old battery first and  
connect the negative cable to the new battery  
last.  
b) Connecting a battery charger - remove the  
battery from the welder by disconnecting the  
negative cable first, then the positive cable and  
battery clamp. When reinstalling, connect the  
negative cable last.  
1. Connect the welder output studs to a suitable resis-  
tive load bank. Note that any attempt to short the  
output studs by connecting the welding leads  
together, direct shorting of the output studs, or con-  
necting the output leads to a length of steel will  
result in catastrophic damage to the generator and  
voids the warranty.  
c) Using a booster - connect the positive lead to  
the battery first, then connect the negative lead to  
the ground lead on the base.  
To prevent ELECTRICAL DAMAGE when:  
a) Installing a new battery.  
b) Using a booster.  
Use correct polarity - Negative Ground.  
2. Set the welder controls for an output current and  
voltage within the welder rating and duty cycle.  
Note that any attempt to exceed the welder rating or  
duty cycle for any period of time will result in cata-  
strophic damage to the generator and voids the  
warranty.  
To prevent BATTERY DISCHARGE, if you have an  
ignition switch, turn it off when engine is not  
running.  
To prevent BATTERY BUCKLING, tighten nuts on  
battery clamp until snug.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
3. Periodically shut off the engine and check the  
crankcase oil level.  
The Classic® 300 D is equipped with a wet charged  
battery. The charging current is automatically regulat-  
ed when the battery is low (after starting the engine) to  
a trickle current when the battery is fully charged.  
When replacing, jumping or otherwise connecting the  
battery to the battery cables, the proper polarity must  
be observed. This system is NEGATIVE GROUND.

7. Allow the engine to run at high idle speed for sev-  
eral minutes to warm the engine. Stop the engine  
and recheck the oil level, after allowing sufficient  
time for the oil to drain into the pan. If the level is  
down, fill it to the full mark again. The engine con-  
trols were properly set at the factory and should  
require no adjusting when received.  
ENGINE OPERATION  
WARNING  
Do not attempt to use this equipment until you  
have thoroughly read the engine manufacturerʼs  
manual supplied with your welder. It includes  
important safety precautions, detailed engine  
starting, operating and maintenance instructions,  
and parts lists.  
COLD WEATHER STARTING:  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
With a fully charged battery and the proper weight oil,  
the engine should start satisfactorily even down to  
about -15°F (-26°C), it maybe desirable to install cold-  
starting aides.  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and  
ground  
• Always wear dry insulating gloves.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ENGINE EXHAUST can kill.  
Note: Extreme cold weather staring may require longer  
glow plug operation.  
• Use in open, well ventilated areas or  
vent exhaust outside.  
WARNING  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
MOVING PARTS can injure.  
Under NO conditions should ether or other starting  
fluids be used!  
• Do not operate with doors open or  
guards off.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
• Stop engine before servicing.  
• Keep away from moving parts.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
Stopping the Engine  
1. Turn the “IGNITION” switch to “OFF”  
See additional warning information at the  
front of this operatorʼs manual.  
At the end of each dayʼs welding, check the crankcase  
oil level, drain accumulated dirt and water from the  
sediment bowl under the fuel tank and refill the fuel  
tank to minimize moisture condensation in the tank.  
Also, running out of fuel tends to draw dirt into the fuel  
system.  
-----------------------------------------------------------  
Operate the welder with the doors closed. Leaving the  
doors open changes the designed air flow and can  
cause overheating.  
When hauling the welder between job sites, close the  
fuel feed valve beneath the fuel tank.  
Starting the Classic® 300D Perkins 104-22  
Diesel Engine  
If the fuel supply is cut off or runs out while the fuel  
pump is operating, air may be entrapped in the fuel dis-  
tribution system. If this happens, bleeding of the fuel  
system may be necessary. Use qualified personnel to  
do this per the instructions in the MAINTENANCE sec-  
tion of this manual.  
1. Turn the “IDLER” switch to “HIGH”.  
2. Turn the “IGNITION” switch to “ON”.  
3. Press the Glow Plug button for 20 to 30 seconds.

OPERATION  
When a forceful “digging” arc is required, usually for  
vertical and overhead welding, use a higher “Current  
Range Selector” setting and lower open circuit voltage.  
For example: to obtain 175 amps and a forceful arc,  
set the “Current Range Selector” to the 240-160 posi-  
tion and the “Fine Current Adjustment” setting to get  
175 amps.  
WELDER OPERATION  
WARNING  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and  
ground.  
Some arc instability may be experienced with EXX10  
electrodes when trying to operate with long arc tech-  
niques at settings at the lower end of the open circuit  
voltage range.  
FUMES & GASES can be dangerous.  
Keep your head out of the fumes.  
Use ventilation or exhaust to remove  
fumes from breathing zone.  
CAUTION  
DO NOT attempt to set the “Current Range Selector”  
between the five points designated on the nameplate.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
WELDING SPARKS can cause fire or  
explosion.  
Keep flammable material away.  
These switches have a spring loaded cam which  
almost eliminates the possibility of setting this switch  
between the designated points.  
ARC RAYS can burn.  
Wear eye, ear, and body protection.  
Idler Operation  
Duty Cycle  
Start the engine with the “Idler” switch in the “High”  
position. Allow it to run at high idle speed for several  
minutes to warm the engine. See Specifications for  
operating speeds.  
The NEMA output rating of the Classic® 300 D is 300  
amperes at 32 arc volts on a 60% duty cycle (consult  
Specifications in this manual for alternate ratings).  
Duty cycle is based on a ten minute period; thus, the  
welder can be loaded at rated output for six minutes  
out of every ten minute period.  
The idler is controlled by the “Idler” toggle switch on the  
welder control panel. The switch has two positions as  
follows:  
Control of Welding Current  
1. In the “High”  
position, the idler solenoid acti-  
vates, and the engine goes to high idle speed. The  
speed is controlled by the governor.  
CAUTION  
DO NOT TURN THE “CURRENT RANGE SELEC-  
TOR” WHILE WELDING because the current may  
arc between the contacts and damage the switch.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
The “Current Range Selector” provides five overlap-  
ping current ranges. The “Fine Current Adjustment”  
adjusts the current from minimum to maximum within  
each range. Open circuit voltage is also controlled by  
the “Fine Current Adjustment” permitting control of the  
arc characteristics.  
2. In the “Auto”  
/
position, the idler oper-  
ates as follows:  
a. When welding or drawing power for lights or tools  
(approximately 100-150 watts minimum) from the  
receptacles, the idler solenoid activates and the  
engine operates at high idle speed.  
b. When welding ceases or the power load is turned  
off, a preset time delay of about 15 seconds  
starts. This time delay cannot be adjusted.  
A high open circuit voltage setting provides the soft  
“buttering” arc with best resistance to pop-outs pre-  
ferred for most welding. To get this characteristic, set  
the “Current Range Selector” to the lowest setting that  
still provides the current you need and set the “Fine  
Current Adjustment” near maximum. For example: to  
obtain 175 amps and a soft arc, set the “Current Range  
Selector” to the 190-120 position and then adjust the  
“Fine Current Adjustment” for 175 amps.  
c. If the welding or power load is not re-started  
before the end of the time delay, the idler solenoid  
deactivates and reduces the engine to low idle  
speed.

4. When necessary, remove the sediment bowl, if so  
equipped, from beneath the fuel tank and clean out  
any accumulated dirt and water.  
WARNING  
Have qualified personnel do the maintenance  
work. Turn the engine off before working inside  
the machine. In some cases, it may be necessary  
to remove safety guards to perform required  
maintenance. Remove guards only when neces-  
sary and replace them when the maintenance  
requiring their removal is complete. Always use  
the greatest care when working near moving  
parts.  
5. Follow the engine service schedule in this manual  
and the detailed maintenance and troubleshooting in  
the engine manufacturerʼs manual.  
Cooling System  
The Classic® 300 D is equipped with a pressure radi-  
ator. Keep the radiator cap tight to prevent loss of  
coolant. Clean and flush the cooling system periodical-  
ly to prevent clogging the passage and overheating the  
engine. When antifreeze is needed, always use the  
permanent type. Capacity = 9.5 qts (9.0 Ltrs.).  
Do not put your hands near the engine cooling  
blower fan. If a problem cannot be corrected by  
following the instructions, take the machine to  
the nearest Lincoln Field Service Shop.  
-----------------------------------------------------------------------  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
Bearings  
This welder is equipped with a double-shielded ball  
bearing having sufficient grease to last indefinitely  
under normal service. Where the welder is used con-  
stantly or in excessively dirty locations, it may be nec-  
essary to add one half ounce of grease per year. A pad  
of grease one inch wide, one inch long, and one inch  
high weighs approximately one half ounce. Over-  
greasing is far worse than insufficient greasing.  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and  
ground  
• Always wear dry insulating gloves.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ENGINE EXHAUST can kill.  
• Use in open, well ventilated areas or  
vent exhaust outside.  
When greasing the bearings, keep all dirt out of the  
area. Wipe the fittings completely clean and use clean  
equipment. More bearing failures are caused by dirt  
introduced during greasing than from insufficient  
grease.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
MOVING PARTS can injure.  
• Do not operate with doors open or  
guards off.  
Commutator and Brushes  
• Stop engine before servicing.  
• Keep away from moving parts.  
WARNING  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
See additional warning information at  
Uncovered rotating equipment can be dangerous.  
Use care so your hands, hair, clothing or tools do  
not catch in the rotating parts. Protect yourself  
from particles that may be thrown out by the rotat-  
front of this operatorʼs manual.  
-----------------------------------------------------------  
ing armature when stoning the commutator.  
General Instructions  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
Shifting of the commutator brushes may result in:  
- Change in machine output  
1. Blow out the welder and controls with an air hose at  
least once every two months. In particularly dirty loca-  
tions, this cleaning may be necessary once a week.  
Use low pressure air to avoid driving dirt into the insu-  
lation.  
- Commutator damage  
- Excessive brush wear  
Periodically inspect the commutator, slip rings, and  
brushes by removing the covers. DO NOT remove or  
replace these covers while the machine is running.  
Commutators and slip rings require little attention.  
However, if they are black or appear uneven, have  
them cleaned by an experienced maintenance man  
using fine sandpaper or a commutator stone. Never  
use emery cloth or paper for this purpose.  
2. “Current Range Selector” contacts should not be  
greased. To keep the contacts clean, rotate the current  
control through its entire range frequently. Good prac-  
tice is to turn the handle from maximum to minimum  
setting twice each morning before starting to weld.  
3. Put a drop of oil on the “Current Range Selector”  
shaft at least once every month.

MAINTENANCE  
Replace brushes when they wear within 1/4” of the pig-  
tail. A complete set of replacement brushes should be  
kept on hand. Lincoln brushes have a curved face to  
fit the commutator. Have an experienced maintenance  
man seat these brushes by lightly stoning the commu-  
tator as the armature rotates at full speed until contact  
is made across the full face of the brushes. After ston-  
ing, blow out the dust with low pressure air.  
Purging Air from Fuel System (Perkins  
104-22 Engine)  
WARNING  
Keep fuel clear of open flames or arcs, allow  
engine to cool before working on the fuel system.  
Wipe up any spilled fuel and do not start engine  
until fumes clear.  
To seat slip ring brushes, position the brushes in place.  
Then slide one end of a piece of fine sandpaper  
between slip rings and brushes with the coarse side  
against the brushes. With slight additional finger pres-  
sure on top of the brushes, pull the sandpaper around  
the circumference of the rings - in direction of rotation  
only - until brushes seat properly. In addition, stone slip  
ring with a fine stone. Brushes must be seated 100%.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
If the engine is running rough and you suspect air has  
been trapped in the fuel system, (e.g. the engine was  
allowed to run out of fuel) perform the following steps  
using qualified personnel:  
1. Loosen by two or three turns, the vent screw  
(Figure D1.3) on the fuel inlet connection.  
Arcing or excessive exciter brush wear indicates a pos-  
sible misaligned shaft. Have an authorized Field  
Service Shop check and realign the shaft.  
Idler Maintenance  
Vent Screw  
CAUTION  
Before doing electrical work on the idler printed  
Priming  
Lever  
circuit board, disconnect the battery.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
When installing a new battery or using a jumper battery  
to start the engine, be sure the battery polarity is con-  
nected properly. The correct polarity is negative  
ground. Damage to the engine alternator and the print-  
ed circuit board can result from incorrect connection.  
FIGURE D1.3  
2. For Engines Equipped with a mechanical fuel pump:  
Operate the priming lever on the fuel lift pump until  
fuel, free of air, flows from the vent point. Tighten  
the vent screw. If the pump is at the point of maxi-  
mum lift, it will not be possible to operate the prim-  
ing lever. If this occurs, turn the crankshaft one  
revolution.  
1. The solenoid plunger must work freely and not bind.  
Dust the plunger about once a year with graphite  
powder.  
For Engines Equipped with an electric fuel pump:  
Operate the electric fuel pump by turning the  
“Ignition” switch “ON” until fuel, free of air, flows  
from the vent point. Tighten the vent screw.  
2. Proper operation of the idler requires good ground-  
ing of the printed circuit board, reed switch, and bat-  
tery.  
3. Contact your Perkins Engine repair facility if prob-  
lems persist.  
3. Idler solenoid is activated for high idle.  
4. If desired, the welder can be used without automat-  
ic idling by setting the “Idler” switch to the “High”  
position.  
Nameplates  
Whenever routine maintenance is performed on this  
machine - or at least yearly - inspect all nameplates  
and labels for legibility. Replace those which are no  
longer clear. Refer to the parts list for the replacement  
item number.

MAINTENANCE  
GFCI RECEPTACLE TESTING AND  
RESETTING PROCEDURE  
The GFCI receptacle should be properly tested at least  
once every month or whenever it is tripped. To proper-  
ly test and reset the GFCI receptacle:  
• If the receptacle has tripped, first carefully remove  
any load and check it for damage.  
• If the equipment has been shut down, it must be  
restarted.  
• The equipment needs to be operating at high idle  
speed and any necessary adjustments made on the  
control panel so that the equipment is providing at  
least 80 volts to the receptacle input terminals.  
• The circuit breaker for this receptacle must not be  
tripped. Reset if necessary.  
• Push the "Reset" button located on the GFCI recep-  
tacle. This will assure normal GFCI operation.  
• Plug a night-light (with an "ON/OFF" switch) or other  
product (such as a lamp) into the GFCI receptacle  
and turn the product "ON".  
• Push the "Test" button located on the GFCI recepta-  
cle. The night-light or other product should go "OFF".  
• Push the "Reset" button, again. The light or other  
product should go "ON" again.  
If the light or other product remains "ON" when the  
"Test" button is pushed, the GFCI is not working prop-  
erly or has been incorrectly installed (miswired). If your  
GFCI is not working properly, contact a qualified, certi-  
fied electrician who can assess the situation, rewire the  
GFCI if necessary or replace the device.

LOCATION / VENTILATION  
If the user adapts a non-Lincoln trailer, he must assume  
responsibility that the method of attachment and usage  
does not result in a safety hazard nor damage the weld-  
ing equipment. Some of the factors to be considered are  
as follows:  
Always operate the welder with the doors closed.  
Leaving the doors open changes the designed air flow  
and may cause overheating.  
The welder should be located to provide an unrestrict-  
ed flow of clean, cool air. Also, locate the welder so  
that engine exhaust fumes are properly vented to an  
outside area.

OPERATION  
7. Allow the engine to run at high idle speed for sev-  
eral minutes to warm the engine. Stop the engine  
and recheck the oil level, after allowing sufficient  
time for the oil to drain into the pan. If the level is  
down, fill it to the full mark again. The engine con-  
trols were properly set at the factory and should  
require no adjusting when received.  
ENGINE OPERATION  
WARNING  
Do not attempt to use this equipment until you  
have thoroughly read the engine manufacturerʼs  
manual supplied with your welder. It includes  
important safety precautions, detailed engine  
starting, operating and maintenance instructions,  
and parts lists.  
COLD WEATHER STARTING:  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
With a fully charged battery and the proper weight oil,  
the engine should start satisfactorily even down to  
about -15°F (-26°C), it maybe desirable to install cold-  
starting aides.  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and  
ground  
• Always wear dry insulating gloves.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ENGINE EXHAUST can kill.  
Note: Extreme cold weather staring may require longer  
glow plug operation.  
• Use in open, well ventilated areas or  
vent exhaust outside.  
WARNING  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
MOVING PARTS can injure.  
Under NO conditions should ether or other starting  
fluids be used!  
• Do not operate with doors open or  
guards off.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION:  
• Stop engine before servicing.  
• Keep away from moving parts.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
The engine will run correctly up to an altitude of 600m  
(2000ft.). If the engine is to be operated permanently at  
an altitude above this, the fuel consumption and  
exhaust emissions may be excessive.  
See additional warning information at the  
front of this operatorʼs manual.  
------------------------------------------------------------  
Contact the Perkins Application Department for any  
engine adjustments that may be required.  
Operate the welder with the doors closed. Leaving the  
doors open changes the designed air flow and can  
cause overheating.  
STOPPING THE ENGINE  
1. Turn the “IGNITION” switch to “OFF”  
STARTING THE CLASSIC® 300D PERKINS  
404C-22 DIESEL ENGINE  
At the end of each dayʼs welding, check the crankcase  
oil level, drain accumulated dirt and water from the  
water separator located on the fuel rail. Refill the fuel  
tank to minimize moisture condensation in the tank.  
Also, running out of fuel tends to draw dirt into the fuel  
system.  
1. Turn the “IDLER” switch to “HIGH”.  
2. Turn the “IGNITION” switch to “ON”.  
3. Press the Glow Plug button for 20 to 30 seconds.  
(maximum 60 seconds).  
4. Press the Start button. When the engine starts  
running, release both buttons. If the engine fails to  
start in 20 seconds, wait 30 seconds and repeat  
the above procedure.  
When hauling the welder between job sites, close the  
fuel feed valve on the separator located on the fuel rail.  
If the fuel supply is cut off or runs out while the fuel  
pump is operating, air may be entrapped in the fuel dis-  
tribution system. If this happens, bleeding of the fuel  
system may be necessary. Use qualified personnel to  
do this per the instructions in the MAINTENANCE sec-  
tion of this manual.  
5. Observe the oil pressure. If no pressure shows  
within 30 seconds, stop the engine and consult the  
engine operating manual. To stop the engine, turn  
the “IGNITION” switch to “OFF”.  
6. If the engine protection warning light comes on  
during cranking or after start up, the “IGNITION”  
switch must be turned “OFF” to reset the engine  
protection system.

B2.3  
OPERATION  
The NEMA output rating of the Classic® 300D Perkins is 300  
amperes at 32 arc volts on a 60% duty cycle (consult  
Specifications in this manual for alternate ratings). Duty  
cycle is based on a ten minute period; thus, the welder can  
be loaded at rated output for six minutes out of every ten  
minute period.  
ENGINE BREAK-IN  
Lincoln Electric selects high quality, heavy-duty industrial  
engines for the portable welding machines we offer.  
While it is normal to see a small amount of crankcase oil  
consumption during initial operation, excessive oil use,  
wet stacking (oil or tar like substance at the exhaust port),  
or excessive smoke is not normal.  
CONTROL OF WELDING CURRENT  
Larger machines with a capacity of 350 amperes and  
higher, which are operated at low or no-load conditions for  
extended periods of time are especially susceptible to the  
conditions described above. To accomplish successful  
engine break-in, most diesel-powered equipment needs  
only to be run at a reasonably heavy load within the rating  
of the welder for some period of time during the engineʼs  
early life. However, if the welder is subjected to extensive  
light loading, occasional moderate to heavy loading of the  
engine may sometimes be necessary. Caution must be  
observed in correctly loading a diesel/generator unit.  
CAUTION  
DO NOT TURN THE “CURRENT RANGE SELECTOR”  
WHILE WELDING because the current may arc between  
the contacts and damage the switch.  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
The “Current Range Selector” provides five overlapping cur-  
rent ranges. The “Fine Current Adjustment” adjusts the cur-  
rent from minimum to maximum within each range. Open cir-  
cuit voltage is also controlled by the “Fine Current  
Adjustment” permitting control of the arc characteristics.  
A high open circuit voltage setting provides the soft “butter-  
ing” arc with best resistance to pop-outs preferred for most  
welding. To get this characteristic, set the “Current Range  
Selector” to the lowest setting that still provides the current  
you need and set the “Fine Current Adjustment” near maxi-  
mum.  
1. Connect the welder output studs to a suitable resis-  
tive load bank. Note that any attempt to short the  
output studs by connecting the welding leads togeth-  
er, direct shorting of the output studs, or connecting  
the output leads to a length of steel will result in cat-  
astrophic damage to the generator and voids the  
warranty.  
For example: to obtain 175 amps and a soft arc, set the  
“Current Range Selector” to the 190-120 position and then  
adjust the “Fine Current Adjustment” for 175 amps.  
2. Set the welder controls for an output current and volt-  
age within the welder rating and duty cycle. Note that  
any attempt to exceed the welder rating or duty cycle  
for any period of time will result in catastrophic dam-  
age to the generator and voids the warranty.  
3. Periodically shut off the engine and check the  
crankcase oil level.  
When a forceful “digging” arc is required, usually for vertical  
and overhead welding, use a higher “Current Range  
Selector” setting and lower open circuit voltage.  
For example: to obtain 175 amps and a forceful arc, set the  
“Current Range Selector” to the 240-160 position and the  
“Fine Current Adjustment” setting to get 175 amps.  
WELDER OPERATION  
DUTY CYCLE  
Some arc instability may be experienced with EXX10 elec-  
trodes when trying to operate with long arc techniques at set-  
tings at the lower end of the open circuit voltage range.  
WARNING  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and ground.  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
CAUTION  
DO NOT attempt to set the “Current Range Selector” between  
the five points designated on the nameplate.  
FUMES & GASES can be dangerous.  
Keep your head out of the fumes.  
Use ventilation or exhaust to remove  
fumes from breathing zone.  
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
These switches have a spring loaded cam which almost elim-  
inates the possibility of setting this switch between the des-  
ignated points.  
WELDING SPARKS can cause fire or  
explosion.  
Keep flammable material away.  
ARC RAYS can burn.  
Wear eye, ear, and body protection.

OPERATION  
IDLER OPERATION  
AUXILIARY POWER  
Start the engine with the “Idler” switch in the “High”  
position. Allow it to run at high idle speed for several  
minutes to warm the engine. See Specifications for  
operating speeds.  
If a GFCI receptacle is tripped, See the MAINTE-  
NANCE section for detailed information on testing and  
resetting the GFCI receptacle.  
The AC auxiliary power, supplied as a standard, has a  
rating of 3.0 KVA of 115/230 VAC (60 hertz).  
The idler is controlled by the “Idler” toggle switch on the  
welder control panel. The switch has two positions as  
follows:  
With the 3.0 KVA, 115/230 VAC auxiliary power, one  
115V GFCI and one 230V duplex, grounding type  
receptacles are provided. The circuit is protected with  
circuit breakers.  
1. In the “High”  
position, the idler solenoid deac-  
tivates, and the engine goes to high idle speed. The  
speed is controlled by the governor.  
The rating of 3.0 KVA permits a maximum continuous  
current of 13 amps to be drawn from the 230 volt  
duplex receptacle. Or a total of 20 amps can be drawn  
from the 115 volt GFCI receptacle. The total combined  
load of all receptacles is not to exceed 3.0 KVA.  
2. In the “Auto”  
/
position, the idler oper-  
ates as follows:  
a. When welding or drawing power for lights or tools  
(approximately 100 watts minimum) from the  
receptacles, the idler solenoid deactivates and the  
engine operates at high idle speed.  
An optional power plug kit is available. When this kit is  
specified, the customer is supplied with a plug for each  
receptacle.  
b. When welding ceases or the power load is turned  
off, a preset time delay of about 15 seconds  
starts. This time delay cannot be adjusted.  
c. If the welding or power load is not re-started  
before the end of the time delay, the idler solenoid  
activates and reduces the engine to low idle  
speed.

MAINTENANCE  
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
4. Follow the engine service schedule in this manual  
and the detailed maintenance and troubleshooting  
in the engine manufacturerʼs manual.  
WARNING  
Have qualified personnel do the maintenance  
work. Turn the engine off before working inside  
the machine. In some cases, it may be necessary  
to remove safety guards to perform required  
maintenance. Remove guards only when neces-  
sary and replace them when the maintenance  
requiring their removal is complete. Always use  
the greatest care when working near moving  
parts.  
COOLING SYSTEM  
The Classic® 300D Perkins is equipped with a pres-  
sure radiator. Keep the radiator cap tight to prevent  
loss of coolant. Clean and flush the cooling system  
periodically to prevent clogging the passage and over-  
heating the engine. When antifreeze is needed, always  
use the permanent type.  
BEARINGS  
Do not put your hands near the engine cooling  
blower fan. If a problem cannot be corrected by  
following the instructions, take the machine to  
the nearest Lincoln Field Service Shop.  
-----------------------------------------------------------------------  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
This welder is equipped with a double-shielded ball  
bearing having sufficient grease to last indefinitely  
under normal service. Where the welder is used con-  
stantly or in excessively dirty locations, it may be nec-  
essary to add one half ounce of grease per year. A pad  
of grease one inch wide, one inch long, and one inch  
high weighs approximately one half ounce. Over-  
greasing is far worse than insufficient greasing.  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and  
ground  
• Always wear dry insulating gloves.  
When greasing the bearings, keep all dirt out of the  
area. Wipe the fittings completely clean and use clean  
equipment. More bearing failures are caused by dirt  
introduced during greasing than from insufficient  
grease.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ENGINE EXHAUST can kill.  
• Use in open, well ventilated areas or  
vent exhaust outside.  
COMMUTATOR AND BRUSHES  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
MOVING PARTS can injure.  
WARNING  
• Do not operate with doors open or  
guards off.  
Uncovered rotating equipment can be dangerous.  
Use care so your hands, hair, clothing or tools do  
not catch in the rotating parts. Protect yourself  
from particles that may be thrown out by the rotat-  
• Stop engine before servicing.  
• Keep away from moving parts.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
See additional warning information at  
ing armature when stoning the commutator.  
front of this operatorʼs manual.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
-----------------------------------------------------------  
Shifting of the commutator brushes may result in:  
- Change in machine output  
- Commutator damage  
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS  
- Excessive brush wear  
1. Blow out the welder and controls with an air hose at  
least once every two months. In particularly dirty  
locations, this cleaning may be necessary once a  
week. Use low pressure air to avoid driving dirt into  
the insulation.  
Periodically inspect the commutator, slip rings, and  
brushes by removing the covers. DO NOT remove or  
replace these covers while the machine is running.  
Commutators and slip rings require little attention.  
However, if they are black or appear uneven, have  
them cleaned by an experienced maintenance man  
using fine sandpaper or a commutator stone. Never  
use emery cloth or paper for this purpose.  
2. “Current Range Selector” contacts should not be  
greased. To keep the contacts clean, rotate the cur-  
rent control through its entire range frequently. Good  
practice is to turn the handle from maximum to min-  
imum setting twice each morning before starting to  
weld.  
3. Put a drop of oil on the “Current Range Selector”  
shaft at least once every month.

MAINTENANCE  
Replace brushes when they wear within 1/4” of the pig-  
tail. A complete set of replacement brushes should be  
kept on hand. Lincoln brushes have a curved face to  
fit the commutator. Have an experienced maintenance  
man seat these brushes by lightly stoning the commu-  
tator as the armature rotates at full speed until contact  
is made across the full face of the brushes. After ston-  
ing, blow out the dust with low pressure air.  
PURGING AIR FROM FUEL SYSTEM  
(PERKINS 404C-22 ENGINE)  
WARNING  
Keep fuel clear of open flames or arcs, allow  
engine to cool before working on the fuel system.  
Wipe up any spilled fuel and do not start engine  
until fumes clear.  
To seat slip ring brushes, position the brushes in place.  
Then slide one end of a piece of fine sandpaper  
between slip rings and brushes with the coarse side  
against the brushes. With slight additional finger pres-  
sure on top of the brushes, pull the sandpaper around  
the circumference of the rings - in direction of rotation  
only - until brushes seat properly. In addition, stone slip  
ring with a fine stone. Brushes must be seated 100%.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
If the engine is running rough and you suspect air has  
been trapped in the fuel system, (e.g. the engine was  
allowed to run out of fuel) perform the following steps  
using qualified personnel:  
1. Loosen by two or three turns, the vent screw  
(Figure D2.3) on the fuel inlet connection.  
Arcing or excessive exciter brush wear indicates a pos-

MAINTENANCE  
GFCI RECEPTACLE TESTING AND RESET-  
TING PROCEDURE  
The GFCI receptacle should be properly tested at least  
once every month or whenever it is tripped. To proper-  
ly test and reset the GFCI receptacle:  
• If the receptacle has tripped, first carefully remove  
any load and check it for damage.  
• If the equipment has been shut down, it must be  
restarted.  
• The equipment needs to be operating at high idle  
speed and any necessary adjustments made on the  
control panel so that the equipment is providing at  
least 80 volts to the receptacle input terminals.  
• The circuit breaker for this receptacle must not be  
tripped. Reset if necessary.  
• Push the "Reset" button located on the GFCI recep-  
tacle. This will assure normal GFCI operation.  
• Plug a night-light (with an "ON/OFF" switch) or other  
product (such as a lamp) into the GFCI receptacle  
and turn the product "ON".  
• Push the "Test" button located on the GFCI recepta-  
cle. The night-light or other product should go "OFF".  
• Push the "Reset" button, again. The light or other  
product should go "ON" again.  
If the light or other product remains "ON" when the  
"Test" button is pushed, the GFCI is not working prop-  
erly or has been incorrectly installed (miswired). If your  
GFCI is not working properly, contact a qualified, certi-  
fied electrician who can assess the situation, rewire the  
GFCI if necessary or replace the device.

1. Turn the “IGNITION” switch to “OFF”  
Operate the welder with the doors closed. Leaving the  
doors open changes the designed air flow and can  
cause overheating.  
At the end of each dayʼs welding, check the crankcase  
oil level, drain accumulated dirt and water from the  
water separator and refill the fuel tank to minimize  
moisture condensation in the tank. Also, running out of  
fuel tends to draw dirt into the fuel system.  
STARTING THE CLASSIC® 300D KUBOTA V2203M  
DIESEL ENGINE  
When hauling the welder between job sites, close the  
valve on the water separator.  
1. Turn the “IDLER” switch to “HIGH”.  
2. Turn the “IGNITION” switch to “ON”.  
3. Press the Glow Plug button for 20 to 30 seconds. (max-  
imum 60 seconds).  
If the fuel supply is cut off or runs out while the fuel  
pump is operating, air may be entrapped in the fuel dis-  
tribution system. If this happens, bleeding of the fuel  
system may be necessary. Use qualified personnel to  
do this per the instructions in the MAINTENANCE sec-  
tion of this manual.  
4. Press the Glow Plug button and the Start button at the  
same time. When the engine starts running, release  
both buttons. If the engine fails to start in 20 seconds,  
wait 30 seconds and repeat the above procedure.  
5. Observe the oil pressure. If no pressure shows within  
30 seconds, stop the engine and consult the engine  
operating manual. To stop the engine, turn the “IGNI-  
TION” switch to “OFF”.  
ENGINE BREAK-IN  
6. If the engine protection warning light comes on during  
cranking or after start up, the “IGNITION” switch must  
be turned “OFF” to reset the engine protection system.  
7. Allow the engine to run at high idle speed for several  
minutes to warm the engine. Stop the engine and  
recheck the oil level, after allowing sufficient time for  
the oil to drain into the pan. If the level is down, fill it to  
the full mark again. The engine controls were properly  
set at the factory and should require no adjusting when  
received.  
Lincoln Electric selects high quality, heavy-duty indus-  
trial engines for the portable welding machines we  
offer. While it is normal to see a small amount of  
crankcase oil consumption during initial operation,  
excessive oil use, wet stacking (oil or tar like substance  
at the exhaust port), or excessive smoke is not normal.

OPERATION  
DUTY CYCLE  
Larger machines with a capacity of 350 amperes and  
higher, which are operated at low or no-load conditions  
for extended periods of time are especially susceptible  
to the conditions described above. To accomplish suc-  
cessful engine break-in, most diesel-powered equip-  
ment needs only to be run at a reasonably heavy load  
within the rating of the welder for some period of time  
during the engineʼs early life. However, if the welder is  
subjected to extensive light loading, occasional moder-  
ate to heavy loading of the engine may sometimes be  
necessary. Caution must be observed in correctly  
loading a diesel/generator unit.  
The NEMA output rating of the CLASSIC® 300D KUB-  
OTA is 300 amperes at 32 arc volts on a 60% duty  
cycle (consult Specifications in this manual for alternate  
ratings). Duty cycle is based on a ten minute period;  
thus, the welder can be loaded at rated output for six  
minutes out of every ten minute period.  
CONTROL OF WELDING CURRENT  
CAUTION  
1. Connect the welder output studs to a suitable  
resistive load bank. Note that any attempt to short  
the output studs by connecting the welding leads  
together, direct shorting of the output studs, or  
connecting the output leads to a length of steel will  
result in catastrophic damage to the generator and  
voids the warranty.  
DO NOT TURN THE “CURRENT RANGE SELEC-  
TOR” WHILE WELDING because the current may  
arc between the contacts and damage the switch.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
The “Current Range Selector” provides five overlap-  
ping current ranges. The “Fine Current Adjustment”  
adjusts the current from minimum to maximum within  
each range. Open circuit voltage is also controlled by  
the “Fine Current Adjustment” permitting control of the  
arc characteristics.  
2. Set the welder controls for an output current and  
voltage within the welder rating and duty cycle.  
Note that any attempt to exceed the welder rating  
or duty cycle for any period of time will result in  
catastrophic damage to the generator and voids  
the warranty.  
A high open circuit voltage setting provides the soft  
“buttering” arc with best resistance to pop-outs pre-  
ferred for most welding. To get this characteristic, set  
the “Current Range Selector” to the lowest setting that  
still provides the current you need and set the “Fine  
Current Adjustment” near maximum. For example: to  
obtain 175 amps and a soft arc, set the “Current  
3. Periodically shut off the engine and check the  
crankcase oil level.  
WELDER OPERATION  
WARNING  
Range Selector” to the 190-120 position and then  
adjust the “Fine Current Adjustment” for 175 amps.  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and  
ground.  
When a forceful “digging” arc is required, usually for  
vertical and overhead welding, use a higher “Current  
Range Selector” setting and lower open circuit voltage.  
For example: to obtain 175 amps and a forceful arc,  
set the “Current Range Selector” to the 240-160 posi-  
tion and the “Fine Current Adjustment” setting to get  
175 amps.  
FUMES & GASES can be dangerous.  
Keep your head out of the fumes.  
Use ventilation or exhaust to remove  
fumes from breathing zone.  
Some arc instability may be experienced with EXX10  
electrodes when trying to operate with long arc tech-  
niques at settings at the lower end of the open circuit  
voltage range.  
WELDING SPARKS can cause fire or  
explosion.  
Keep flammable material away.  
CAUTION  
DO NOT attempt to set the “Current Range Selector”  
between the five points designated on the nameplate.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ARC RAYS can burn.  
Wear eye, ear, and body protection.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
These switches have a spring loaded cam which  
almost eliminates the possibility of setting this switch  
between the designated points.

OPERATION  
IDLER OPERATION  
The AC auxiliary power, supplied as a standard, has a  
rating of 3.0 kVA of 115/230 VAC (60 hertz).  
Start the engine with the “Idler” switch in the “High”  
position. Allow it to run at high idle speed for several  
minutes to warm the engine. See Specifications for  
operating speeds.  
With the 3.0 kVA, 115/230 VAC auxiliary power, one  
115V duplex and one 230V duplex, grounding type  
receptacle are provided. The circuit is protected with  
circuit breakers.  
The idler is controlled by the “Idler” toggle switch on  
the welder control panel. The switch has two positions  
as follows:  
The rating of 3.0 kVA permits a maximum continuous  
current of 13 amps to be drawn from the 230 volt  
duplex receptacle. Or a total of 26 amps can be drawn  
from the 115 volt duplex receptacle. The 115 volt  
duplex receptacle has a configuration which permits 20  
amps to be drawn from either half. The total combined  
load of all receptacles is not to exceed 3.0 kVA.  
1. In the “High”  
position, the engine control unit  
increases the engine to high idle speed.  
2. In the “Auto”  
/
position, the idler oper-  
ates as follows:  
An optional power plug kit is available. When this kit is  
specified, the customer is supplied with a plug for each  
receptacle.  
a. When welding or drawing power for lights or tools  
(approximately 100 watts minimum) from the recep-  
tacles, the engine operates at high idle speed.  
When the High Speed Adjustment knob is in the MIN  
position, the frequency of the AC auxiliary output may  
be reduced to approximately 55 Hertz. It is recom-  
mended that the High Idle Speed Adjustment knob  
should be in the MAX position when using the AC aux-  
iliary output.  
b. When welding ceases or the power load is turned  
off, a preset time delay of about 15 seconds starts.  
This time delay cannot be adjusted.  
c. If the welding or power load is not re-started before  
the end of the time delay, the engine control unit  
reduces the engine to low idle speed.  
AUXILIARY POWER  
Start the engine and set the “IDLER” control switch to  
the “High Idle” mode. Voltage is now correct at the  
receptacles for auxiliary power. This must be done  
before a tripped GFCI receptacle can be reset proper-  
ly. See the MAINTENANCE section for detailed infor-  
mation on testing and resetting the GFCI receptacle.

. Follow the engine service schedule in this manual  
and the detailed maintenance and troubleshooting in  
the engine manufacturerʼs manual.  
WARNING  
Have qualified personnel do the maintenance  
work. Turn the engine off before working inside  
the machine. In some cases, it may be necessary  
to remove safety guards to perform required  
maintenance. Remove guards only when neces-  
sary and replace them when the maintenance  
requiring their removal is complete. Always use  
the greatest care when working near moving  
parts.  
COOLING SYSTEM  
The CLASSIC® 300D KUBOTA is equipped with a  
pressure radiator. Keep the radiator cap tight to pre-  
vent loss of coolant. Clean and flush the cooling sys-  
tem periodically to prevent clogging the passage and  
overheating the engine. When antifreeze is needed,  
always use the permanent type.  
BEARINGS  
Do not put your hands near the engine cooling  
blower fan. If a problem cannot be corrected by  
following the instructions, take the machine to  
the nearest Lincoln Field Service Shop.  
-----------------------------------------------------------------------  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
This welder is equipped with a double-shielded ball  
bearing having sufficient grease to last indefinitely  
under normal service. Where the welder is used con-  
stantly or in excessively dirty locations, it may be nec-  
essary to add one half ounce of grease per year. A pad  
of grease one inch wide, one inch long, and one inch  
high weighs approximately one half ounce. Over-  
greasing is far worse than insufficient greasing.  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and  
ground  
• Always wear dry insulating gloves.  
When greasing the bearings, keep all dirt out of the  
area. Wipe the fittings completely clean and use clean  
equipment. More bearing failures are caused by dirt  
introduced during greasing than from insufficient  
grease.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ENGINE EXHAUST can kill.  
• Use in open, well ventilated areas or  
vent exhaust outside.  
COMMUTATOR AND BRUSHES  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
MOVING PARTS can injure.  
WARNING  
• Do not operate with doors open or  
guards off.  
Uncovered rotating equipment can be dangerous.  
Use care so your hands, hair, clothing or tools do  
not catch in the rotating parts. Protect yourself  
from particles that may be thrown out by the rotat-  
• Stop engine before servicing.  
• Keep away from moving parts.

front of this operatorʼs manual.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
-----------------------------------------------------------  
Shifting of the commutator brushes may result in:  
- Change in machine output  
- Commutator damage  
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS  
- Excessive brush wear  
1. Blow out the welder and controls with an air hose at  
least once every two months. In particularly dirty  
locations, this cleaning may be necessary once a  
week. Use low pressure air to avoid driving dirt into  
the insulation.  
Periodically inspect the commutator, slip rings, and  
brushes by removing the covers. DO NOT remove or  
replace these covers while the machine is running.  
Commutators and slip rings require little attention.  
However, if they are black or appear uneven, have  
them cleaned by an experienced maintenance man  
using fine sandpaper or a commutator stone. Never  
use emery cloth or paper for this purpose.  
2. “Current Range Selector” contacts should not be  
greased. To keep the contacts clean, rotate the cur-  
rent control through its entire range frequently. Good  
practice is to turn the handle from maximum to min-  
imum setting twice each morning before starting to  
weld.  
3. Put a drop of oil on the “Current Range Selector”  
shaft at least once every month.

MAINTENANCE  
Replace brushes when they wear within 1/4”(3.5mm)  
of the pigtail. A complete set of replacement brushes  
should be kept on hand. Lincoln brushes have a  
curved face to fit the commutator. Have an experi-  
enced maintenance man seat these brushes by lightly  
stoning the commutator as the armature rotates at full  
speed until contact is made across the full face of the  
brushes. After stoning, blow out the dust with low pres-  
sure air.  
PURGING AIR FROM FUEL SYSTEM  
(KUBOTA V2203M ENGINE)  
WARNING  
Keep fuel clear of open flames or arcs, allow  
engine to cool before working on the fuel system.  
Wipe up any spilled fuel and do not start engine  
until fumes clear.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
If the engine is running rough and you suspect air has  
been trapped in the fuel system, (e.g. the engine was  
allowed to run out of fuel) perform the following steps  
using qualified personnel:  
To seat slip ring brushes, position the brushes in place.  
Then slide one end of a piece of fine sandpaper  
between slip rings and brushes with the coarse side  
against the brushes. With slight additional finger pres-  
sure on top of the brushes, pull the sandpaper around  
the circumference of the rings - in direction of rotation  
only - until brushes seat properly. In addition, stone slip  
ring with a fine stone. Brushes must be seated 100%.  
1. Fully open the air bleeding valve by turning it  
counter clockwise, it is located on top of the fuel  
injection pump next to the oil filler. (see figure D3.3)  
Arcing or excessive exciter brush wear indicates a pos-  
sible misaligned shaft. Have an authorized Field  
Service Shop check and realign the shaft.  
Air Bleeding  
Valve  
IDLER MAINTENANCE  
CAUTION  
Before doing electrical work, disconnect the bat-  
tery.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
When installing a new battery or using a jumper battery  
to start the engine, be sure the battery polarity is con-  
nected properly. The correct polarity is negative  
ground. Damage to the engine alternator and the  
Engine Control Unit can result from incorrect connec-  
tion.  
FIGURE D3.3  
2. Turn the engine by pressing the start button until  
the engine runs smoothly (this should take approx-  
imately 10 seconds).  
3. Fully close the air bleeding valve by turning it clock-  
wise.  
1. Proper operation of the idler requires good ground-  
ing of the Engine Control Unit, current sensing  
printed circuit board and battery.  
Contact your Kubota Engine repair facility if problems  
persist.  
2. If desired, the welder can be used without automat-  
ic idling by setting the “Idler” switch to the “High”  
position.  
NAMEPLATES  
Whenever routine maintenance is performed on this  
machine - or at least yearly - inspect all nameplates  
and labels for legibility. Replace those which are no  
longer clear. Refer to the parts list for the replacement  
item number.

MAINTENANCE  
GFCI RECEPTACLE TESTING AND RESET-  
TING PROCEDURE  
The GFCI receptacle should be properly tested at least  
once every month or whenever it is tripped. To proper-  
ly test and reset the GFCI receptacle:  
• If the receptacle has tripped, first carefully remove  
any load and check it for damage.  
• If the equipment has been shut down, it must be  
restarted.  
• The equipment needs to be operating at high idle  
speed and any necessary adjustments made on the  
control panel so that the equipment is providing at  
least 80 volts to the receptacle input terminals.  
• The circuit breaker for this receptacle must not be  
tripped. Reset if necessary.  
• Push the "Reset" button located on the GFCI recep-  
tacle. This will assure normal GFCI operation.  
• Plug a night-light (with an "ON/OFF" switch) or other  
product (such as a lamp) into the GFCI receptacle  
and turn the product "ON".  
• Push the "Test" button located on the GFCI recepta-  
cle. The night-light or other product should go "OFF".  
• Push the "Reset" button, again. The light or other  
product should go "ON" again.  
If the light or other product remains "ON" when the  
"Test" button is pushed, the GFCI is not working prop-  
erly or has been incorrectly installed (miswired). If your  
GFCI is not working properly, contact a qualified, certi-  
fied electrician who can assess the situation, rewire the  
GFCI if necessary or replace the device.

LOCATION / VENTILATION  
If the user adapts a non-Lincoln trailer, he must assume  
responsibility that the method of attachment and usage  
does not result in a safety hazard nor damage the weld-  
ing equipment. Some of the factors to be considered are  
as follows:  
Always operate the welder with the doors closed.  
Leaving the doors open changes the designed air flow  
and may cause overheating.  
The welder should be located to provide an unrestrict-  
ed flow of clean, cool air. Also, locate the welder so  
that engine exhaust fumes are properly vented to an  
outside area.  
1. Design capacity of trailer vs. weight of Lincoln equip-  
ment and likely additional attachments.

7. Allow the engine to run at high idle speed for sev-  
eral minutes to warm the engine. Stop the engine  
and recheck the oil level, after allowing sufficient  
time for the oil to drain into the pan. If the level is  
down, fill it to the full mark again. The engine con-  
trols were properly set at the factory and should  
require no adjusting when received.  
ENGINE OPERATION  
WARNING  
Do not attempt to use this equipment until you  
have thoroughly read the engine manufacturerʼs  
manual supplied with your welder. It includes  
important safety precautions, detailed engine  
starting, operating and maintenance instructions,  
and parts lists.  
COLD WEATHER STARTING:  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
With a fully charged battery and the proper weight oil,  
the engine should start satisfactorily even down to  
about -15°F (-26°C), it maybe desirable to install cold-  
starting aides.  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and  
ground  
• Always wear dry insulating gloves.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ENGINE EXHAUST can kill.  
Note: Extreme cold weather starting may require  
longer glow plug operation.  
• Use in open, well ventilated areas or  
vent exhaust outside.  
WARNING  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
MOVING PARTS can injure.  
Under NO conditions should ether or other starting  
fluids be used!  
• Do not operate with doors open or  
guards off.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION:  
• Stop engine before servicing.  
• Keep away from moving parts.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
The engine will run correctly up to an altitude of 600m  
(2000ft.). If the engine is to be operated permanently at  
an altitude above this, the fuel consumption and  
exhaust emissions may be excessive.  
See additional warning information at the  
front of this operatorʼs manual.  
-----------------------------------------------------------  
Contact the Perkins Application Department for any  
engine adjustments that may be required.  
Operate the welder with the doors closed. Leaving the  
doors open changes the designed air flow and can  
cause overheating.  
STOPPING THE ENGINE  
1. Turn the “IGNITION” switch to “OFF”  
STARTING THE CLASSIC® 300D PERKINS  
404D-22 DIESEL ENGINE  
At the end of each dayʼs welding, check the crankcase  
oil level, drain accumulated dirt and water from the  
water separator located on the fuel rail. Refill the fuel  
tank to minimize moisture condensation in the tank.  
Also, running out of fuel tends to draw dirt into the fuel  
system.  
1. Turn the “IDLER” switch to “HIGH”.  
2. Turn the “IGNITION” switch to “ON”.  
3. Press the Glow Plug button for 20 to 30 seconds.  
(maximum 60 seconds).  
4. Press the Start button. When the engine starts  
running, release both buttons. If the engine fails to  
start in 20 seconds, wait 30 seconds and repeat  
the above procedure.  
When hauling the welder between job sites, close the  
fuel feed valve on the separator located on the fuel rail.  
If the fuel supply is cut off or runs out while the fuel  
pump is operating, air may be entrapped in the fuel dis-  
tribution system. If this happens, bleeding of the fuel  
system may be necessary. Use qualified personnel to  
do this per the instructions in the MAINTENANCE sec-  
tion of this manual.  
5. Observe the oil pressure. If no pressure shows  
within 30 seconds, stop the engine and consult the  
engine operating manual. To stop the engine, turn  
the “IGNITION” switch to “OFF”.  
6. If the engine protection warning light comes on  
during cranking or after start up, the “IGNITION”  
switch must be turned “OFF” to reset the engine  
protection system.

OPERATION  
DUTY CYCLE  
ENGINE BREAK-IN  
The NEMA output rating of the Classic® 300D Perkins is 300  
amperes at 32 arc volts on a 60% duty cycle (consult  
Specifications in this manual for alternate ratings). Duty  
cycle is based on a ten minute period; thus, the welder can  
be loaded at rated output for six minutes out of every ten  
minute period.  
Lincoln Electric selects high quality, heavy-duty industrial  
engines for the portable welding machines we offer.  
While it is normal to see a small amount of crankcase oil  
consumption during initial operation, excessive oil use,  
wet stacking (oil or tar like substance at the exhaust port),  
or excessive smoke is not normal.  
CONTROL OF WELDING CURRENT  
Larger machines with a capacity of 350 amperes and  
higher, which are operated at low or no-load conditions for  
extended periods of time are especially susceptible to the  
conditions described above. To accomplish successful  
engine break-in, most diesel-powered equipment needs  
only to be run at a reasonably heavy load within the rating  
of the welder for some period of time during the engineʼs  
early life. However, if the welder is subjected to extensive  
light loading, occasional moderate to heavy loading of the  
engine may sometimes be necessary. Caution must be  
observed in correctly loading a diesel/generator unit.  
CAUTION  
DO NOT TURN THE “CURRENT RANGE SELECTOR”  
WHILE WELDING because the current may arc between  
the contacts and damage the switch.  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
The “Current Range Selector” provides five overlapping cur-  
rent ranges. The “Fine Current Adjustment” adjusts the cur-  
rent from minimum to maximum within each range. Open cir-  
cuit voltage is also controlled by the “Fine Current  
Adjustment” permitting control of the arc characteristics.  
1. Connect the welder output studs to a suitable resis-  
tive load bank. Note that any attempt to short the  
output studs by connecting the welding leads togeth-  
er, direct shorting of the output studs, or connecting  
the output leads to a length of steel will result in cat-  
astrophic damage to the generator and voids the  
warranty.  
A high open circuit voltage setting provides the soft “butter-  
ing” arc with best resistance to pop-outs preferred for most  
welding. To get this characteristic, set the “Current Range  
Selector” to the lowest setting that still provides the current  
you need and set the “Fine Current Adjustment” near maxi-  
mum.  
2. Set the welder controls for an output current and volt-  
age within the welder rating and duty cycle. Note that  
any attempt to exceed the welder rating or duty cycle  
for any period of time will result in catastrophic dam-  
age to the generator and voids the warranty.  
3. Periodically shut off the engine and check the  
crankcase oil level.  
For example: to obtain 175 amps and a soft arc, set the  
“Current Range Selector” to the 190-120 position and then  
adjust the “Fine Current Adjustment” for 175 amps.  
When a forceful “digging” arc is required, usually for vertical  
and overhead welding, use a higher “Current Range  
Selector” setting and lower open circuit voltage.  
WELDER OPERATION  
For example: to obtain 175 amps and a forceful arc, set the  
“Current Range Selector” to the 240-160 position and the  
“Fine Current Adjustment” setting to get 175 amps.  
WARNING  
Some arc instability may be experienced with EXX10 elec-  
trodes when trying to operate with long arc techniques at set-  
tings at the lower end of the open circuit voltage range.  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and ground.  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
FUMES & GASES can be dangerous.  
CAUTION  
Keep your head out of the fumes.  
Use ventilation or exhaust to remove  
fumes from breathing zone.  
DO NOT attempt to set the “Current Range Selector” between  
the five points designated on the nameplate.  
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
These switches have a spring loaded cam which almost elim-  
inates the possibility of setting this switch between the des-  
ignated points.  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
WELDING SPARKS can cause fire or  
explosion.  
Keep flammable material away.  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ARC RAYS can burn.  
Wear eye, ear, and body protection.

IDLER OPERATION  
AUXILIARY POWER  
Start the engine with the “Idler” switch in the “High”  
position. Allow it to run at high idle speed for several  
minutes to warm the engine. See Specifications for  
operating speeds.  
If a GFCI receptacle is tripped, See the MAINTE-  
NANCE section for detailed information on testing and  
resetting the GFCI receptacle.  
The AC auxiliary power, supplied as a standard, has a  
rating of 3.0 KVA of 115/230 VAC (60 hertz).  
The idler is controlled by the “Idler” toggle switch on the  
welder control panel. The switch has two positions as  
follows:  
With the 3.0 KVA, 115/230 VAC auxiliary power, one  
115V GFCI and one 230V duplex, grounding type  
receptacles are provided. The circuit is protected with  
circuit breakers.  
1. In the “High”  
position, the idler solenoid deac-  
tivates, and the engine goes to high idle speed. The  
speed is controlled by the governor.  
The rating of 3.0 KVA permits a maximum continuous  
current of 13 amps to be drawn from the 230 volt  
duplex receptacle. Or a total of 20 amps can be drawn  
from the 115 volt GFCI receptacle. The total combined  
load of all receptacles is not to exceed 3.0 KVA.  
2. In the “Auto”  
/
position, the idler oper-  
ates as follows:  
a. When welding or drawing power for lights or tools  
(approximately 100 watts minimum) from the  
receptacles, the idler solenoid deactivates and the  
engine operates at high idle speed.  
An optional power plug kit is available. When this kit is  
specified, the customer is supplied with a plug for each  
receptacle.  
b. When welding ceases or the power load is turned  
off, a preset time delay of about 15 seconds  
starts. This time delay cannot be adjusted.  
c. If the welding or power load is not re-started  
before the end of the time delay, the idler solenoid  
activates and reduces the engine to low idle  
speed.

MAINTENANCE  
4. Follow the engine service schedule in this manual  
and the detailed maintenance and troubleshooting in  
the engine manufacturerʼs manual.  
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
WARNING  
Have qualified personnel do the maintenance  
work. Turn the engine off before working inside  
the machine. In some cases, it may be necessary  
to remove safety guards to perform required  
maintenance. Remove guards only when neces-  
sary and replace them when the maintenance  
requiring their removal is complete. Always use  
the greatest care when working near moving  
parts.  
COOLING SYSTEM  
The Classic® 300D Perkins is equipped with a pres-  
sure radiator. Keep the radiator cap tight to prevent  
loss of coolant. Clean and flush the cooling system  
periodically to prevent clogging the passage and over-  
heating the engine. When antifreeze is needed, always  
use the permanent type.  
BEARINGS  
Do not put your hands near the engine cooling  
blower fan. If a problem cannot be corrected by  
following the instructions, take the machine to  
the nearest Lincoln Field Service Shop.  
-----------------------------------------------------------------------  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
This welder is equipped with a double-shielded ball  
bearing having sufficient grease to last indefinitely  
under normal service. Where the welder is used con-  
stantly or in excessively dirty locations, it may be nec-  
essary to add one half ounce of grease per year. A pad  
of grease one inch wide, one inch long, and one inch  
high weighs approximately one half ounce. Over-  
greasing is far worse than insufficient greasing.  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and  
ground  
• Always wear dry insulating gloves.  
When greasing the bearings, keep all dirt out of the  
area. Wipe the fittings completely clean and use clean  
equipment. More bearing failures are caused by dirt  
introduced during greasing than from insufficient  
grease.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ENGINE EXHAUST can kill.  
• Use in open, well ventilated areas or  
vent exhaust outside.  
COMMUTATOR AND BRUSHES  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
MOVING PARTS can injure.  
WARNING  
• Do not operate with doors open or  
guards off.  
Uncovered rotating equipment can be dangerous.  
Use care so your hands, hair, clothing or tools do  
not catch in the rotating parts. Protect yourself  
from particles that may be thrown out by the rotat-  
• Stop engine before servicing.  
• Keep away from moving parts.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
See additional warning information at  
ing armature when stoning the commutator.  
front of this operatorʼs manual.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
Shifting of the commutator brushes may result in:  
- Change in machine output  
-----------------------------------------------------------  
- Commutator damage  
- Excessive brush wear  
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS  
Periodically inspect the commutator, slip rings, and  
brushes by removing the covers. DO NOT remove or  
replace these covers while the machine is running.  
Commutators and slip rings require little attention.  
However, if they are black or appear uneven, have  
them cleaned by an experienced maintenance man  
using fine sandpaper or a commutator stone. Never  
use emery cloth or paper for this purpose.  
1. Blow out the welder and controls with an air hose at  
least once every two months. In particularly dirty  
locations, this cleaning may be necessary once a  
week. Use low pressure air to avoid driving dirt into  
the insulation.  
2. “Current Range Selector” contacts should not be  
greased. To keep the contacts clean, rotate the cur-  
rent control through its entire range frequently. Good  
practice is to turn the handle from maximum to min-  
imum setting twice each morning before starting to  
weld.  
3. Put a drop of oil on the “Current Range Selector”  
shaft at least once every month.

MAINTENANCE  
Replace brushes when they wear within 1/4” of the pig-  
tail. A complete set of replacement brushes should be  
kept on hand. Lincoln brushes have a curved face to  
fit the commutator. Have an experienced maintenance  
man seat these brushes by lightly stoning the commu-  
tator as the armature rotates at full speed until contact  
is made across the full face of the brushes. After ston-  
ing, blow out the dust with low pressure air.  
PURGING AIR FROM FUEL SYSTEM  
(PERKINS 404D-22 ENGINE)  
WARNING  
Keep fuel clear of open flames or arcs, allow  
engine to cool before working on the fuel system.  
Wipe up any spilled fuel and do not start engine  
until fumes clear.  
To seat slip ring brushes, position the brushes in place.  
Then slide one end of a piece of fine sandpaper  
between slip rings and brushes with the coarse side  
against the brushes. With slight additional finger pres-  
sure on top of the brushes, pull the sandpaper around  
the circumference of the rings - in direction of rotation  
only - until brushes seat properly. In addition, stone slip  
ring with a fine stone. Brushes must be seated 100%.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
If the engine is running rough and you suspect air has  
been trapped in the fuel system, (e.g. the engine was  
allowed to run out of fuel) perform the following steps  
using qualified personnel:  
1. Loosen by two or three turns, the vent screw  
(Figure D4.3) on the fuel inlet connection.  
Arcing or excessive exciter brush wear indicates a pos-  
sible misaligned shaft. Have an authorized Field  
Service Shop check and realign the shaft.  
IDLER MAINTENANCE  
Vent Screw  
CAUTION  
Before doing electrical work on the idler printed  
Priming  
Lever  
circuit board, disconnect the battery.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
When installing a new battery or using a jumper battery  
to start the engine, be sure the battery polarity is con-  
nected properly. The correct polarity is negative  
ground. Damage to the engine alternator and the print-  
ed circuit board can result from incorrect connection.  
FIGURE D4.3  
2. Operate the electric fuel pump by turning the  
“Ignition” switch “ON” until fuel, free of air, flows  
from the vent point. Tighten the vent screw.  
3. Contact your Perkins Engine repair facility if prob-  
lems persist.  
1. Proper operation of the idler requires good ground-  
ing of the printed circuit board, reed switch, and bat-  
tery.  
2. Idler solenoid is activated for low idle.  
3. If desired, the welder can be used without automat-  
ic idling by setting the “Idler” switch to the “High”  
position.  
NAMEPLATES  
Whenever routine maintenance is performed on this  
machine - or at least yearly - inspect all nameplates  
and labels for legibility. Replace those which are no  
longer clear. Refer to the parts list for the replacement  
item number.

GFCI RECEPTACLE TESTING AND RESET-  
TING PROCEDURE  
The GFCI receptacle should be properly tested at least  
once every month or whenever it is tripped. To proper-  
ly test and reset the GFCI receptacle:  
• If the receptacle has tripped, first carefully remove  
any load and check it for damage.  
• If the equipment has been shut down, it must be  
restarted.  
• The equipment needs to be operating at high idle  
speed and any necessary adjustments made on the  
control panel so that the equipment is providing at  
least 80 volts to the receptacle input terminals.  
• The circuit breaker for this receptacle must not be  
tripped. Reset if necessary.  
• Push the "Reset" button located on the GFCI recep-  
tacle. This will assure normal GFCI operation.  
• Plug a night-light (with an "ON/OFF" switch) or other  
product (such as a lamp) into the GFCI receptacle  
and turn the product "ON".  
• Push the "Test" button located on the GFCI recepta-  
cle. The night-light or other product should go "OFF".  
• Push the "Reset" button, again. The light or other  
product should go "ON" again.  
If the light or other product remains "ON" when the  
"Test" button is pushed, the GFCI is not working prop-  
erly or has been incorrectly installed (miswired). If your  
GFCI is not working properly, contact a qualified, certi-  
fied electrician who can assess the situation, rewire the  
GFCI if necessary or replace the device.

WARNING  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and ground.  
STARTING THE CLASSIC® 300G GM 3.0L  
GASOLINE ENGINE  
1. Turn the “IDLER” switch to “HIGH”.(Optional )  
2. Turn the “IGNITION” switch to “ON”.  
FUMES & GASES can be dangerous.  
Keep your head out of the fumes.  
Use ventilation or exhaust to remove  
fumes from breathing zone.  
3. Press the Start button. When the engine starts run-  
ning, release button. If the engine fails to start in 20  
seconds, wait 30 seconds and repeat the above pro-  
cedure.  
WELDING SPARKS can cause fire or  
explosion.  
4. Observe the oil pressure. If no pressure shows with-  
in 30 seconds, stop the engine and consult the  
engine operating manual. To stop the engine, turn  
the “IGNITION” switch to “OFF”.  
Keep flammable material away.  
5. Allow the engine to run at high idle speed for sev-  
eral minutes to warm up. If idle control switch is left  
in “Auto” position, engine will run at 1600 RPM until  
engine coolant temperature reaches 130 F.  
Under NO conditions should ether or other starting  
fluids be used!  
ARC RAYS can burn.  
Wear eye, ear, and body protection.  
-------------------------------------------------------------------------  
The NEMA output rating of the Classic® 300G is 300  
amperes at 32 arc volts on a 60% duty cycle (consult  
Specifications in this manual for alternate ratings).  
Duty cycle is based on a ten minute period; thus, the  
welder can be loaded at rated output for six minutes  
out of every ten minute period.  
STOPPING THE ENGINE  
• Turn the “IGNITION” switch to “OFF”  
• At the end of each dayʼs welding, check the crankcase  
oil level, drain accumulated dirt and water from the  
sediment bowl under the fuel tank and refill the fuel  
tank to minimize moisture condensation in the tank.  
Also, running out of fuel tends to draw dirt into the fuel  
system.

OPERATION  
When welding or drawing power for lights or tools  
(approximately 100-150 watts minimum) from the  
receptacles, the engine operates at high idle speed.  
CONTROL OF WELDING CURRENT  
CAUTION  
When welding ceases or the power load is turned off,  
a preset time delay of about 10 seconds starts. This  
time delay cannot be adjusted.  
DO NOT TURN THE “CURRENT RANGE SELEC-  
TOR” WHILE WELDING because the current may  
arc between the contacts and damage the switch.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
The “Current Range Selector” provides five overlap-  
ping current ranges. The “Fine Current Adjustment”  
adjusts the current from minimum to maximum within  
each range. Open circuit voltage is also controlled by  
the “Fine Current Adjustment” permitting control of the  
arc characteristics.  
If the welding or power load is not re-started before  
the end of the time delay the throttle body controller  
reduces the engine to low idle speed.  
AUXILIARY POWER  
The AC auxiliary power, supplied as a standard, has a  
rating of 3.0 kVA of 115/230 VAC (60 hertz).  
A high open circuit voltage setting provides the soft  
“buttering” arc with best resistance to pop-outs pre-  
ferred for most welding. To get this characteristic, set  
the “Current Range Selector” to the lowest setting that  
still provides the current you need and set the “Fine  
Current Adjustment” near maximum. For example: to  
obtain 175 amps and a soft arc, set the “Current Range  
Selector” to the 190-120 position and then adjust the  
“Fine Current Adjustment” for 175 amps.  
With the 3.0 kVA, 115/230 VAC auxiliary power, one  
115V duplex and one 230V duplex, grounding type  
receptacle are provided. The circuit is protected with  
circuit breakers.  
The rating of 3.0 kVA permits a maximum continuous  
current of 13 amps to be drawn from the 230 volt  
duplex receptacle. Or a total of 26 amps can be drawn  
from the 115 volt duplex receptacle. The 115 volt  
duplex receptacle has a configuration which permits 20  
amps to be drawn from either half. The total combined  
load of all receptacles is not to exceed 3.0 kVA.  
When a forceful “digging” arc is required, usually for  
vertical and overhead welding, use a higher “Current  
Range Selector” setting and lower open circuit voltage.  
For example: to obtain 175 amps and a forceful arc, set  
the “Current Range Selector” to the 240-160 position  
and the “Fine Current Adjustment” setting to get 175  
amps.  
An optional power plug kit is available. When this kit is  
specified, the customer is supplied with a plug for each  
receptacle.  
Some arc instability may be experienced with EXX10  
electrodes when trying to operate with long arc tech-  
niques at settings at the lower end of the open circuit  
voltage range.  
THROTTLE BODY DEICING SYSTEM  
The welder has been designed to allow continuous  
year-round operation. Engine coolant is channeled  
through the Throttle Bottle Injector (TBI) housing to  
prevent the build up of ice on the TBI throat around the  
throttle plate. The electronic controller is programmed  
to automatically compensate for the build up of ice on  
the throttle plate. There will be no noticeable change in  
the operation of the welder should icing develop. On  
start-up, there is a possibility for the engine to over-  
speed ( to a maximum of 2000 RPM ) for up to 10 sec-  
onds after throttle body icing conditions have occurred.  
The electronic governor will correct itself for the new  
operating conditions and normal operation will resume.  
CAUTION  
DO NOT attempt to set the “Current Range Selector”  
between the five points designated on the nameplate.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
These switches have a spring loaded cam which  
almost eliminates the possibility of setting this switch  
between the designated points.  
IDLER CONTROL OPERATION  
The idle is controlled by the “Idler” toggle switch on the  
welder control panel. The switch has two positions as  
follows:  
1. In the “High” position, and the engine goes to high  
idle speed. The speed is controlled by the governor.  
2. In the “Auto”  
/
position, the engine oper-  
ates as follows:

MAINTENANCE  
When necessary, remove the sediment bowl, if so  
equipped, from beneath the fuel tank and clean out  
any accumulated dirt and water.  
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  
WARNING  
Have qualified personnel do the maintenance  
work. Turn the engine off before working inside  
the machine. In some cases, it may be necessary  
to remove safety guards to perform required  
maintenance. Remove guards only when neces-  
sary and replace them when the maintenance  
requiring their removal is complete. Always use  
the greatest care when working near moving  
parts.  
Follow the engine service schedule in this manual  
and the detailed maintenance and troubleshooting in  
the engine manufacturerʼs manual.  
COOLING SYSTEM  
The Classic® 300G is equipped with a pressure radia-  
tor. Keep the radiator cap tight to prevent loss of  
coolant. Clean and flush the cooling system periodical-  
ly to prevent clogging the passage and overheating the  
engine. When antifreeze is needed, always use the  
permanent type. Capacity = 9.9 qts (9.4 Ltrs.).  
Do not put your hands near the engine cooling  
blower fan. If a problem cannot be corrected by  
following the instructions, take the machine to  
the nearest Lincoln Field Service Shop.  
-----------------------------------------------------------------------  
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.  
BEARINGS  
This welder is equipped with a double-shielded ball  
bearing having sufficient grease to last indefinitely  
under normal service. Where the welder is used con-  
stantly or in excessively dirty locations, it may be nec-  
essary to add one half ounce of grease per year. A pad  
of grease one inch wide, one inch long, and one inch  
high weighs approximately one half ounce. Over-  
greasing is far worse than insufficient greasing.  
• Do not touch electrically live parts or  
electrode with skin or wet clothing.  
• Insulate yourself from work and  
ground  
• Always wear dry insulating gloves.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
ENGINE EXHAUST can kill.  
• Use in open, well ventilated areas or  
vent exhaust outside.  
When greasing the bearings, keep all dirt out of the  
area. Wipe the fittings completely clean and use clean  
equipment. More bearing failures are caused by dirt  
introduced during greasing than from insufficient  
grease.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
MOVING PARTS can injure.  
• Do not operate with doors open or  
guards off.  
• Stop engine before servicing.  
COMMUTATOR AND BRUSHES  
• Keep away from moving parts.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
See additional warning information at  
WARNING  
Uncovered rotating equipment can be dangerous.  
Use care so your hands, hair, clothing or tools do  
not catch in the rotating parts. Protect yourself  
from particles that may be thrown out by the rotat-  
front of this operatorʼs manual.

ing armature when stoning the commutator.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS  
Shifting of the commutator brushes may result in:  
- Change in machine output  
Blow out the welder and controls with an air hose at  
least once every two months. In particularly dirty  
locations, this cleaning may be necessary once a  
week. Use low pressure air to avoid driving dirt into  
the insulation.  
- Commutator damage  
- Excessive brush wear  
Periodically inspect the commutator, slip rings, and  
brushes by removing the covers. DO NOT remove or  
replace these covers while the machine is running.  
Commutators and slip rings require little attention.  
However, if they are black or appear uneven, have  
them cleaned by an experienced maintenance man  
using fine sandpaper or a commutator stone. Never  
use emery cloth or paper for this purpose.  
“Current Range Selector” contacts should not be  
greased. To keep the contacts clean, rotate the cur-  
rent control through its entire range frequently. Good  
practice is to turn the handle from maximum to mini-  
mum setting twice each morning before starting to  
weld.  
Put a drop of oil on the “Current Range Selector”  
shaft at least once every month.

MAINTENANCE  
Replace brushes when they wear within 1/4” of the pig-  
tail. A complete set of replacement brushes should be  
kept on hand. Lincoln brushes have a curved face  
to fit the commutator. Have an experienced mainte-  
nance man seat these brushes by lightly stoning the  
commutator as the armature rotates at full speed until  
contact is made across the full face of the brushes.  
After stoning, blow out the dust with low pressure air.  
PURGING AIR FROM FUEL SYSTEM (GM  
3.0L ENGINE)  
WARNING  
Keep fuel clear of open flames or arcs, allow  
engine to cool before working on the fuel system.  
Wipe up any spilled fuel and do not start engine  
until fumes clear.  
To seat slip ring brushes, position the brushes in place.  
Then slide one end of a piece of fine sandpaper  
between slip rings and brushes with the coarse side  
against the brushes. With slight additional finger pres-  
sure on top of the brushes, pull the sandpaper around  
the circumference of the rings - in direction of rotation  
only - until brushes seat properly. In addition, stone slip  
ring with a fine stone. Brushes must be seated 100%.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
The fuel system operates as follows, The fuel pump  
will operate for a maximum of 3 seconds when the igni-  
tion switch is turned “ON”. The pump will restart once  
the start button is pushed and continue when the  
engine starts. To purge the system of air if fuel lines  
have been removed, the ignition switch can be toggled  
“ON” and “OFF” (at 3 second intervals) until fuel flows  
through the fuel return line in the neck of the tank.  
Arcing or excessive exciter brush wear indicates a pos-  
sible misaligned shaft. Have an authorized Field  
Service Shop check and realign the shaft.  
The GM 3.0L engine does not require the system to be  
bled. If the engine runs out of fuel and the tank is  
refilled, the engine will restart within a few seconds if  
the engine is properly tuned.

tery.  
------------------------------------------------------------------------  
When installing a new battery or using a jumper battery  
to start the engine, be sure the battery polarity is con-  
nected properly. The correct polarity is negative  
ground. Damage to the engine alternator and the TBI  
controller can result from incorrect connection.  
Proper operation of the idle control requires good  
grounding of the TBI controller, and battery.  
If desired, the welder can be used without automatic  
idling by setting the “Idler” switch to the “High” posi-  
tion.  
NAMEPLATES  
Whenever routine maintenance is performed on this  
machine - or at least yearly - inspect all nameplates

CIRCUITS  
The 12VDC battery powers the starter motor and,  
through the ignition switch, the engine protection cir-  
cuitry. In the event of a low oil pressure or a high  
coolant temperature condition, the engine protection  
system shuts the engine off.  
The idle / engine protection PC board or, the engine  
control unit (ECU) monitors the oil pressure sensor,  
and the coolant temperature sensor. If either sensor “  
faults,” the engine is shut down.  
The engine alternator supplies “charging” current for  
the battery circuit. If the alternator would cease to func-  
tion correctly, due to a broken fan belt or other mal-  
function, the engine protection system would shut the  
engine down.

THEORY OF OPERATION

AND FRAME, ALTERNATOR STA-  
TOR AND ROTOR  
CURRENT RANGE SELECTOR  
The selector switch acts as a coarse current  
adjustment by allowing for varying amounts of  
series windings to be included in the welding cur-  
rent path. The series coils and selector switch are  
connected in series with the negative output ter-  
minal.  
EXCITATION (FLASHING)  
When the engine is started and running, voltage  
produced by residual magnetism in the DC weld-  
ing generator passes through a “flashing” diode,  
and is applied to the alternator rotor via a brush  
and slip ring configuration. This excitation (“flash-  
ing”) voltage magnetizes the rotor lamination. The  
alternator rotor is connected to the armature shaft,  
which is mechanically coupled to the engine. The  
rotating magnet (rotor) induces a voltage in the  
stationary windings of the alternator stator.  
FINE CURRENT ADJUSTMENT  
The field rheostat control functions as a fine out-  
put current adjustment by controlling the current  
through the shunt windings. This controls the  
amount of magnetism created in the shunt field  
windings. Open circuit weld voltage can also be  
controlled by the field rheostat control.

ADJUSTMENT  
COILS  
Classic® 300G (Codes 10659, 10912, and 11135)  
The Classic® 300G utilizes an electronic engine  
control system manufactured by Zenith fuel sys-  
tems LLC. This system maintains a steady RPM  
by constantly sensing engine speed and making  
adjustments as needed.  
There are two isolated windings incorporated in  
the stator lamination assembly. One of these  
windings is tapped and provides 115VAC and  
230VAC of auxiliary power to the appropriate  
receptacles. The other 115VAC isolated winding is  
rectified to a DC voltage and is used to supply  
field feedback voltage to the rotor. It also supplies  
voltage, through the generator field rheostat con-  
trol, to the field shunt windings in the main gener-  
ator frame.  
A potentiometer mounted on the output rail allows  
the operator to adjust the high idle engine speed  
between 1700 and 1800 RPMʼs in 20 RPM incre-  
ments. This is to allow further adjustment of the  
welding generator open circuit voltage (OCV).  
Total OCV adjustment range is about 10 Volts.  
INTERPOLE AND SERIES COILS  
The generator armature rotates within the mag-  
netic field created by the shunt field windings. A  
DC voltage is induced in the armature and is  
transferred, through the armature commutator  
and brushes, to the series and interpole coils. The  
interpole coils, which are connected in series with  
the positive output terminal, are located so as to  
counteract any magnetic influences that could  
cause mechanical distortion in the rotating arma-  
ture. The series coils are designed to oppose or  
“buck” the DC voltage that is generated in the  
armature.

11243, 11244, 11413, 11414, 11474, and 11475)  
The Kubota powered Classic® 300D machines  
utilize an electronic engine control system which  
is a part of the Kubota engine. This system main-  
tains a steady RPM by constantly sensing engine  
speed and making adjustments as needed.  
The Perkins powered Classic® 300D machines  
have a mechanical governor that maintains the  
engine RPM when the engine is running at high  
speed. There is no operator control for RPM as  
there is with 300G or 300D Kubota.  
The Custom Arc Control, a potentiometer mount-  
ed on the lower right control panel, allows the  
operator to adjust the high idle engine speed  
between 1650 and 1800 RPM. This is to allow fur-  
ther adjustment of the OCV. Total OCV adjust-  
ment range is about 15 volts.

THEORY OF OPERATION  
ENGINE IDLER CIRCUIT  
Classic® 300D Perkins (Codes 10545, 10546,  
10657, 10658, 10911, and 10927)  
Classic® 300G (Codes 10659, 10912, and  
11135)  
The above models use a high speed solenoid,  
connected to the governor linkage, and operated  
by the idler/engine protection PC board. In these  
machines, the solenoid increases the RPM when  
activated.  
The Zenith ECU used in the Classic® 300G con-  
trols whether the engine operates at high idle or  
low idle. Closing the circuit between pins #11 and  
#13 of the ECU signal that high RPM is required  
and the engine immediately accelerates to high  
idle RPM. Opening this will cause the engine  
RPM to drop to low idle speed, (about 1360 RPM)  
after a delay of about 15 seconds. If the pin #11  
to pin #13 circuit is re-closed during this delay,  
engine RPM will remain high.  
When the idle switch is in the auto position, and  
welding current is being drawn, the reed switch  
CR2 is closed. This signals the idler PC board to  
activate the high speed solenoid, which then  
increases the engine speed to high idle RPM.  
When auxiliary power is being used, the current is  
passed through the toroidal current transformer.  
This also signals the idler PC board to activate the  
high speed solenoid. When welding ceases or  
the auxiliary load is removed, a preset time delay  
of about 15 seconds starts. When this 15 second  
delay has passed, the idler PC board deactivates  
the high speed solenoid, and allows the machine  
will return to a low speed condition. If welding is  
resumed, or an auxiliary load is applied during this  
delay, the solenoid will remain active and the  
engine RPM remains high.  
The current sensor PC board detects current flow  
in both the auxiliary and the weld circuits. When  
sufficient current is flowing in either of these cir-  
cuits, the current sensor PC board closes the #11  
- #13 circuit, when current flow ceases, the circuit  
is opened.  
The idle switch and the current sensing PC board  
are wired in parallel across the #11 - #13 circuit  
described above. When the idle switch is set to  
the high position, the contacts are closed and the  
ECU operates the engine continuously at high  
RPM. When the idle switch is in the Auto position,  
the contacts are open, and the current sensor PC  
board has control of the #11 - #13 circuit.  
When the idle switch is in the high position, the  
reed switch CR2 is bypassed, signaling the PC  
board to activate the solenoid.  
Classic® 300D Perkins (Codes 11110, 11111,  
11248, 11249, 11280, 11281, 11411, 11412,  
11472, and 11473)  
The above models use a two winding idle sole-  
noid, connected to the governor linkage, and  
operated by the idler/engine protection PC board.  
The engine normally runs at high RPM, and is  
controlled by the governor. When the idle switch  
is in the auto position and no weld or auxiliary  
loads are applied, the idler/engine protection PC  
board starts a 15 second delay. When this delay  
has passed, both the pull and hold coils of the  
solenoid are activated. After about 0.75 seconds,  
the pull coil is deactivated leaving the still active  
hold coil to maintain the low idle position of the  
solenoid.

THEORY OF OPERATION  
The current sensor PC board detects current flow  
in both the auxiliary and the weld circuits. When  
sufficient current is flowing in either of these cir-  
cuits, the lead connected to pin #31 is grounded,  
signaling that high RPM is required. When cur-  
rent flow ceases, the lead connected to pin #31 is  
disconnected from chassis ground, and the  
engine idles down after the delay described  
above.  
When the idle switch is in the auto position, and  
welding current is being drawn, the reed switch  
CR2 is closed. This signals the idler PC board to  
deactivate the idle solenoid, allowing the governor  
to increase the engine speed to high RPM. When  
auxiliary power is being used, the current is  
passed through the toroidal current transformer.  
This also signals the idler PC board to deactivate  
the idle solenoid. When welding ceases or the  
auxiliary load is removed, a preset time delay of  
about 15 seconds begins. When this 15 second  
delay has passed, the PC board activates the idle  
solenoid, as described above, and pulls the  
engine governor linkage to the low idle RPM posi-  
tion. If welding is resumed, or an auxiliary load is  
applied during this delay, the engine RPM will  
remain high.  
The idle switch and the current sensing PC board  
are wired in parallel between chassis ground and  
the pin#31 circuit described above. When the idle  
switch is set to the high position, the contacts are  
closed and the ECU operates the engine continu-  
ously at high RPM. When the idle switch is in the  
Auto position, the contacts are open, and the cur-  
rent sensor PC board controls whether the pin  
#31 circuit is grounded or open.  
When the idle switch is in the high position, the  
reed switch CR2 is bypassed, signaling the PC  
board to leave the solenoid inactive  
Classic® 300D Kubota (Codes: 11112, 11113,  
11243, 11244, 11413, 11414, 11474, and 11475)  
The Kubota engine control unit (ECU) used in the  
Classic® 300D controls whether the engine oper-  
ates at high idle or low idle. Grounding pin #31 of  
the ECU signals that high RPM is required and  
the engine immediately accelerates to high idle  
RPM. Opening the circuit between pin #31and  
chassis ground will cause the engine RPM to drop  
to low idle speed, after a delay of about 15 sec-  
onds. If the chassis ground to pin #31 circuit re-  
closed during this delay, engine RPM will remain  
high.

DC GENERATOR MACHINES  
The armature winding of a DC generator is located on  
the rotating member. Current is conducted from it by  
means of carbon brushes. The field winding is located  
in the stator, which is stationary, and is excited by direct  
current. The armature coil sides are placed at opposite  
points on the rotating shaft with the conductors parallel  
to the shaft. The armature assembly is normally turned  
at a constant speed by a source of mechanical power  
connected to the shaft. Rotation of the armature  
through the magnetic field produced by the stationary  
field winding induces a coil voltage in the armature  
winding. The voltage induced in an individual armature  
coil is an alternating (AC) voltage, which must be recti-  
fied. In a conventional machine, rectification is provid-  
ed mechanically by means of a commutator. A commu-  
tator is a cylinder formed of copper segments insulated  
from each other and mounted on, but insulated from,  
the rotating shaft. Each copper segment is connected  
to a corresponding armature winding. Stationary car-  
bon brushes held against the commutator surface con-  
nect the armature windings to external terminals. The  
commutator provides full-wave rectification, transform-  
ing the voltage waveform between brushes and mak-  
ing available a DC voltage to the external circuit.

HOW TO USE TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE  
WARNING  
Service and Repair should only be performed by Lincoln Electric Factory Trained  
Personnel. Unauthorized repairs performed on this equipment may result in danger to  
the technician and machine operator and will invalidate your factory warranty. For your  
safety and to avoid Electrical Shock, please observe all safety notes and precautions  
detailed throughout this manual.  
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
Step 3. RECOMMENDED  
This Troubleshooting Guide is provided to  
help you locate and repair possible machine  
malfunctions. Simply follow the three-step  
procedure listed below.  
COURSE OF ACTION  
The last column labeled “Recommended  
Course of Action” lists the most likely com-  
ponents that may have failed in your  
machine. It also specifies the appropriate  
test procedure to verify that the subject com-  
ponent is either good or bad. If there are a  
number of possible components, check the  
components in the order listed to eliminate  
one possibility at a time until you locate the  
cause of your problem.  
Step 1. LOCATE PROBLEM (SYMPTOM).  
Look under the column labeled “PROBLEM  
(SYMPTOMS)”. This column describes pos-  
sible symptoms that the machine may exhib-  
it. Find the listing that best describes the  
symptom that the machine is exhibiting.  
Symptoms are grouped into the following  
categories: output problems, function prob-  
lems and welding problems.  
All of the referenced test procedures  
referred to in the Troubleshooting Guide are  
described in detail at the end of this chapter.  
Refer to the Troubleshooting and Repair  
Table of Contents to locate each specific  
Test Procedure. All of the specified test  
points, components, terminal strips, etc. can  
be found on the referenced electrical wiring  
diagrams and schematics. Refer to the  
Electrical Diagrams Section Table of  
Contents to locate the appropriate diagram.  
Step 2. PERFORM EXTERNAL TESTS.  
The second column labeled “POSSIBLE  
AREAS OF MISADJUSTMENT(S)” lists the  
obvious external possibilities that may con-  
tribute to the machine symptom. Perform  
these tests/checks in the order listed. In  
general, these tests can be conducted with-  
out removing the case wrap-around cover.  
CAUTION  
If for any reason you do not understand the test procedures or are unable to perform the  
tests/repairs safely, contact the Lincoln Electric Service Department for technical troubleshooting  
assistance before you proceed. Call 1-888-935-3877.

PC BOARD TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURES  
- Remove the PC board from the static-shielding bag  
and place it directly into the equipment. Donʼt set the  
PC board on or near paper, plastic or cloth which  
could have a static charge. If the PC board canʼt be  
installed immediately, put it back in the static-shield-  
ing bag.  
WARNING  
ELECTRIC SHOCK  
can kill.  
Have an electrician install and  
service this equipment. Turn the  
input power OFF at the fuse box  
before working on equipment. Do  
not touch electrically hot parts.  
- If the PC board uses protective shorting jumpers,  
donʼt remove them until installation is complete.  
- If you return a PC board to The Lincoln Electric  
Company for credit, it must be in the static-shielding  
bag. This will prevent further damage and allow prop-  
er failure analysis.  
CAUTION  
Sometimes machine failures appear to be due to PC  
board failures. These problems can sometimes be  
traced to poor electrical connections. To avoid prob-  
lems when troubleshooting and replacing PC boards,  
please use the following procedure:  
4. Test the machine to determine if the failure  
symptom has been corrected by the  
replacement PC board.  
NOTE: It is desirable to have a spare (known good)  
PC board available for PC board troubleshooting.  
1. Determine to the best of your technical ability  
that the PC board is the most likely component  
causing the failure symptom.  
NOTE: Allow the machine to heat up so that all  
electrical components can reach their operating  
temperature.  
5. Remove the replacement PC board and  
substitute it with the original PC board to  
recreate the original problem.  
2. Check for loose connections at the PC board  
to assure that the PC board is properly  
connected.  
3. If the problem persists, replace the suspect PC  
board using standard practices to avoid static  
electrical damage and electrical shock. Read  
the warning inside the static resistant bag and  
perform the following procedures:  
a. If the original problem does not reappear by  
substituting the original board, then the PC  
board was not the problem. Continue to look  
for bad connections in the control wiring  
harness, junction blocks, and terminal strips.  
b. If the original problem is recreated by the  
substitution of the original board, then the PC  
board was the problem. Reinstall the  
replacement PC board and test the machine.  
PC board can be damaged by static electricity.  
- Remove your bodyʼs static  
charge before opening the static-  
shielding bag. Wear an anti-static  
wrist strap. For safety, use a 1  
Meg ohm resistive cord connected  
6. Always indicate that this procedure was  
followed when warranty reports are to be  
submitted.

a
grounded part of the  
ATTENTION  
Static-Sensitive  
Devices  
equipment frame.  
NOTE: Following this procedure and writing on the  
warranty report, “INSTALLED AND SWITCHED PC  
BOARDS TO VERIFY PROBLEM,” will help avoid  
denial of legitimate PC board warranty claims.  
- If you donʼt have a wrist strap,  
touch an un-painted, grounded,  
part of the equipment frame. Keep  
touching the frame to prevent  
static build-up. Be sure not to  
touch any electrically live parts at  
the same time.  
Handle only at  
Static-Safe  
Workstations  
- Tools which come in contact with the PC board must  
be either conductive, anti-static or static-dissipative.

BRUSH & SLIP RING SERVICE PROCEDURE (continued)  
(Exciter/Auxiliary Power Alternator)  
PROCEDURE  
1. Remove the round end cover from the exciter.  
Seating Brushes  
2. Examine brushes, slip rings and brush holder.  
If brushes have been replaced, repositioned or are  
not making full contact with the slip rings, it will be  
necessary to re-seat them. This can be done by  
placing a strip of 180 grit sandpaper between the  
slip rings and the brushes. Make sure the abrasive  
side is against the brushes. Pull the strip around  
the circumference of the slip rings in the direction  
of the rotor rotation only. Repeat this procedure  
until the surface of each brush is in full contact with  
its matching slip ring.  
Use low pressure compressed air to thoroughly  
blow the carbon, commutator stone and sandpaper  
dust from the machine before operating.  
Securely connect the leads to the brush terminals  
(see wiring diagram) and replace the alternator  
cover if testing and service is complete.  
• Brushes should be clean and free of oil and  
grease.  
• The brushes should be of sufficient length  
and have adequate spring tension.  
(Generally, the brushes should be replaced if  
either brush has less than 1/4” remaining  
before it reaches the end of itʼs travel.)  
• Brushes should be making good, continuous  
contact with the slip rings, and should be rid-  
ing near the center of the slip rings. (The  
brush holder bracket may need to be slightly  
bent to achieve acceptable alignment.)  
Note: If slip rings are very dark in color, display  
evidence of excessive arcing, or a have  
worn prematurely, these may be signs of a  
grounded or shorted rotor. Perform the  
3. Check for evidence of sticking brushes.  
Sticking brushes will normally result in the slip  
rings being pitted and discolored from exces-  
sive arcing. Another sign of sticking brushes is  
instability or loss of both weld and auxiliary out-  
put, but the machine may begin to work proper-  
ly for a short time after being jarred or moved.  
If there is any evidence that the brushes may  
have been sticking in the brush holders, a new  
brush holder and brush assembly should be  
installed.  
Cleaning the Slip Rings  
In the event that the slip rings become dirty, discol-  
ored or mildly pitted, it is necessary to clean them  
using a very fine 500 or 600 grit emery cloth.  
CAUTION  
A 220 or 320 grit commutator stone may be used.  
Commutator stones should only be used by expe-  
rienced technicians who have the knowledge and  
proper equipment to use them safely.

ENGINE ALTERNATOR TEST PROCEDURE (continued)  
PROCEDURE  
1. Locate the engine alternator.  
NOTE: Secure the door in the open position using  
the door restraint system. If the machine  
does not have a door restraint system,  
remove the door(s) or securely restrain  
them to prevent them from falling closed.  
For Perkins powered machines:  
Check voltage as follows:  
Run/stop switch off:  
Chassis ground to the B+ terminal of the alternator,  
the meter should read battery voltage.  
Chassis ground to the alternator flash/sense lead,  
lead #59. The meter should read 0 volts.  
Run/stop switch on:  
Chassis ground to the flash/sense lead, lead #59.  
The meter should read about 12 Volts DC. If the  
engine is not started, this voltage will drop to zero  
after about 30 seconds. (This time may be 60 sec-  
onds on some models.)  
Engine running:  
Chassis ground to the B+ terminal of the alternator.  
The meter should read about 13.5 to 14.2 VDC.  
Chassis ground to the alternator flash/sense lead.  
The meter should read about 10 Volts DC.  
NOTE: A closed temperature switch or oil pressure  
switch can also cause the flash/sense volt-  
age to measure low; perform the Engine  
Protection System test before replacing the  
alternator.  
If the voltages are significantly different from those  
shown above, check the wiring connected to the  
alternator for faulty connections or bad insulation.  
If the wiring is good, the alternator is probably  
faulty and should be serviced or replaced.  
For Kubota powered machines:  
Check the wiring connecting the alternator to the  
ammeter, ignition switch, and engine control mod-  
ule.  
If the wiring and connections are in good condition,  
the alternator and engine control unit should be  
checked by a qualified Kubota engine technician.

PROCEDURE  
1. Open and secure the side door.  
NOTE: Secure the doors in the open position using  
the door restraint system. If the machine  
does not have a door restraint system,  
remove the doors or securely restrain them  
to prevent them from falling closed.  
Perkins powered models:  
Locate the fuel solenoid and attach a voltmeter to  
the leads. Turn on the run/stop switch. Within 30  
seconds, read the voltage on the meter. The volt-  
age should read about 12 VDC. Voltage should  
also be checked at the fuel pump for models that  
have one. See wiring diagram.  
Note: The engine protection system will shut off the  
power to both the solenoid and the fuel pump  
if the engine is not started within about 30  
seconds. Move the run/stop switch off then  
on again to reset.  
If battery voltage is present at the solenoids and  
the fuel pump (If equipped), and the starter motor  
is cranking the engine normally, the problem is like-  
ly in the engine. Engine problems should be diag-  
nosed and repaired by a qualified Perkins engine  
technician.  
If battery voltage is not present, check for a tripped  
fuel system circuit breaker (Earlier units only)  
Check the wiring and connections on the  
Idle/Engine protection PC board, the engine fuel  
system injection pump solenoid, the fuel pump (for  
engines having an electric fuel pump.), and chas-  
sis ground. Look for dirty, corroded, or damaged  
terminals, including the Molex terminals connect-  
ing the wiring to the PC board. Look for poor crimp  
connections and damaged wiring.  
Check that the PC board is getting battery voltage  
from the run/stop switch and that it is securely  
grounded.  
If the board is getting power, is properly grounded,  
and the wiring and connections described above is  
in good condition, replace the PC board.

to prevent them from falling closed.  
Classic® 300D Perkins powered machines:  
Be certain to reconnect all lead wires and close the  
CAUTION  
doors when testing and service is complete.  
The following procedure will temporarily disable  
the engine protection system. Be absolutely certain  
that engine temperature and oil pressure are with-  
in the normal range. IF THE ENGINE IS PERMIT-  
TED TO RUN WHITE OVERHEATED OR WITH  
TOW OIL PRESSURE, SEVERE ENGINE DAM-  
AGE WILL LIKELY RESULT, AND THE ENGINE  
WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER THE DAMAGE.  
Be absolutely certain that all wires are connected  
when the test is completed.  
Classic® 300D Kubota powered machines:  
The Kubota engine control module will flash the  
engine protection fault light, indicating where the  
fault was detected. See the machine schematic for  
a list of codes. Use this code to determine what  
sensor or associated wiring is causing the problem  
and check the wiring.  
The sensors and engine control unit are part of the  
Kubota engine. If the wiring and connections are in  
good condition, the engine should be serviced by a  
qualified Kubota service technician.  
2. Disconnect the lead wire connecting the PC  
board to the engine coolant temperature gage  
or switch. See wiring diagram.  
3. Disconnect the lead wire connecting the PC  
board to the engine oil pressure switch.  
4. Disconnect the flash/sense lead connecting  
the PC board to the engine alternator.  
5. Insulate and/or position these leads so they  
cannot touch chassis ground, any other electri-  
cal conductor, or be damaged by any moving  
parts.  
6. Start the engine and allow it to run.  
7. If the engine still shuts down, thoroughly check  
the three wires that had been disconnected in  
steps 1 through 3. Be particularly aware of  
damaged insulation, or anything that may  
cause one of these conductors to come in con-  
tact with chassis ground.  
8. If no problems are discovered with the wiring  
or insulation, the Idler/Engine shutdown PC  
board is faulty and should be replaced.  
9. If the engine continues to run with these wires  
disconnected, one of the engine protections  
switches is faulty or the engine alternator is  
faulty.

facturer's instructions, and plug the probes into one  
of the 120VAC auxiliary receptacles.  
Start the engine and place the idle switch in the  
"HIGH IDLE" position. Make sure that there is no  
load on the machine and allow the engine RPM to  
stabilize.  
NOTE: Secure the door in the open position using  
the door restraint system. If the machine  
does not have a door restraint system,  
remove the door or securely restrain it to  
prevent it from falling closed.

other Perkins engines  
• 46.3 to 47 Hz. for Classic® 300D Kubota models.  
Start the engine and place the idle switch in the  
"HIGH IDLE" position. Make sure that there is no  
load on the machine and allow the engine RPM to  
stabilize.  
Direct the strobe-tach light on the highly visible  
mark that had been applied earlier and synchro-  
nize the light with the rotating mark. See the  
strobe-tach manufacturer's instructions.  
If either of the readings is incorrect, proceed to the  
later in this section.  
NOTE: For Lincoln Electric 1800 RPM (4 Pole)  
machines, that have 60 Hz AC auxiliary  
power; the engine RPM can be determined  
by multiplying the frequency of the auxiliary  
power output, in Hz. By 30. (Example: 60  
Hz. * 30 = 1800 RPM)  
The tach should read between 1790 and 1810  
RPM  
Move the idle switch to the "AUTO IDLE" position  
and wait for the engine RPM to drop and stabilize  
at the low idle RPM.  
Synchronize the strobe-tach to read the low idle  
RPM.  
The tach should read as follows:  
• 1325 to 1475 for Classic® 300G and Classic®  
300Ds powered by the Perkins 104.22 engines.  
• 1350 to 1450 for Classic® 300Ds powered by  
other Perkins engines  
• 1390 to 1410 for Classic® 300D Kubota models.

TEST DESCRIPTION  
The rocker is the part of the welding generator that supports and positions the 4 sets of  
brushes. Its position can be adjusted to fine tune the weld output and influence the weld  
characteristics.  
Important: The rocker is set at the factory for the best overall performance and long gen-  
erator and brush life. Altering this adjustment is normally not recommended unless one or  
more of the welding generator components affecting this setting have been replaced. In  
very unusual situations, very small adjustments of the rocker may be beneficial if the  
machine is operating within the specified limits, but the Arc characteristics are unsatisfac-  
tory for the desired application.  
CAUTION: Improper rocker adjustment can result in poor performance, reduced  
brush life and damage to the welding generator. This adjustment should  
only be attempted by an experienced professional.  
MATERIALS NEEDED  
Resistive load bank, capable of accepting at least a 300 Amp load at 33 VDC.  
Volt meter/Ammeter, able to read at least 300 Amps

ROCKER  
PROCEDURE  
A tachometer will be required for this phase of the  
test. See The Engine RPM Adjustment Test for  
details about measuring engine RPM.  
When the rocker is set for the first time at the fac-  
tory, a 1/8" drill is used to mark the position of both  
the rocker and the exciter bracket. See Figure F.1  
Initial rocker placement:  
If a machine is not operating within the specified  
limits, and nothing else appears to be faulty, the  
rocker position should be checked. If the drill marks  
are not aligned, the rocker and/or the exciter brack-  
et should be reset to the original factory position.  
If it has been determined that a rocker adjustment  
is necessary on an unaltered machine; the rocker  
should only be moved in very small increments,  
and the total movement should be no more than  
1/2 the diameter of the drill mark.  
The rocker should be initially positioned so the cen-  
ter of brushes visually lines up with the center of  
the main poles. Lining up the four brush holder  
studs with the four exciter bracket mounting bolts is  
acceptable for initial placement. The rocker should  
be tight against the shoulder of the hub and the  
clamping screw should be tightened only enough  
to assure the rocker cannot move. DO NOT OVER  
TIGHTEN.  
IMPORTANT: Over tightening the rocker clamp  
IMPORTANT! The following procedures should  
only be attempted if all the other systems have  
been thoroughly checked and are functioning  
normally.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND REPAIR  
ROCKER ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE (continued)  
Check that the brush holders are properly installed  
If the weld output voltage is lower than specified  
and positioned correctly. See the Welding  
above, the rocker position will need to be adjusted.  
Generally, moving the rocker opposite the arma-  
ture rotation direction will increase output voltage.  
When making this adjustment, the rocker should  
only be moved in very small increments. The  
adjustment may need to be repeated several times  
to achieve the desired result.  
Start the engine, place the idle switch in the high  
idle position, and seat the brushes using a com-  
Check the OCV, (Open Circuit Voltage)  
Place the range selector switch in the maximum  
position. Use a load bank to apply a 100% duty  
cycle load (250 amps @ 30 volts). Look at the  
brushes while the load is applied. If excessive  
sparking is observed, adjust the rocker position to  
minimize sparking. Generally, moving the rocker  
slightly in the direction of the armature rotation will  
reduce sparking.  
Continue running the machine under load for at  
least 30 minutes to bring the machine up to normal  
operating temperature and to fully seat the brush-  
es.  
Remove the load and check the voltage at the out-  
put studs. The voltage should measure from 93 to  
99 Volts DC.  
After the rocker has been adjusted and the  
machine is operating normally, the rocker locking  
screw should be tightened to 70-75 Inch-Lbs.  
If new parts had been installed, the new rocker  
and/or exciter bracket location should be marked  
with a 1/8" drill mark. See Figure F.1.  
Check for Max output.  
Remove the load, set the fine current control and  
rheostat to maximum, and then adjust the load  
bank to apply a 300 Amp load to the machine.  
Measure the output voltage, it should read:  
• From 33 to 42 VDC for Classic® 3000 and  
Classic® 300D Perkins models.  
• From 34 to 48 VDC for Classic® 300D Kubota  
models.  
Measure the engine RPM, it should measure:  
• From 1780 to 1810 RPM, for Classic® 3000 mod-  
els  
• From 1650 to 1750 RPM, for Classic® 300D  
Perkins models  
• From 1790 to 1810 RPM, for Classic® 300D  
Kubota models  
If the engine RPM is not within specification,  
Perform the Engine RPM Adjustment Test, if the  
engine high idle RPM is normal, but the load RPM  
is significantly less than specified above, the  
engine or governor may be malfunctioning. See the  
engine troubleshooting procedures in this manual  
and/or have the engine serviced or repaired by a  
qualified engine technician.

EXCITER ROTOR RESISTANCE AND GROUND TESTS PROCEDURE  
(Exciter / Auxiliary Power Alternator) (continued)  
FIGURE F.2 – LEAD LOCATION  
If these resistance values are normal, continue  
testing, using the dynamic rotor resistance and  
ground test.  
PROCEDURE  
"Static" Tests:  
1. Turn the engine off.  
"Dynamic" Tests:  
(Also referred to as flying resistance test)  
2. Remove the round cover from the exciter / aux-  
iliary power alternator.  
This test checks for faults in the rotor winding,  
while these windings are being stressed by the  
mechanical forces encountered during normal  
operation.  
NOTE: This test is best performed with a good  
quality analog type ohmmeter. Many digital  
meters will not provide stable or accurate  
resistance readings while the rotor is spin-  
ning.  
3. Locate and label the leads connected to the  
rotor brush holder assembly. Remove the  
leads. This will electrically isolate the rotor  
windings.  
4. Using the ohmmeter, check the rotor winding  
resistance across the slip rings. Normal resis-  
tance is approximately 41.5* ohms, at 77°F.  
(25° C.) See Figure F.2  
5. Measure the resistance to ground. Place one  
meter probe on either of the slip rings. Place the  
other probe on any good unpainted chassis  
ground. The resistance should be very high, at  
least 500,000 (500k) ohms.  
This test requires that the brushes and slip rings  
are clean, in good condition, and are properly seat-  
ed.  
Procedure if necessary.  
6. If the resistance measurements are not as  
specified the rotor may be faulty and should be  
replaced.

resistance test. Position and secure them so  
they cannot become damaged by the spinning  
rotor. It is recommended that the ohmmeter  
leads be securely attached to the brush termi-  
nals, using clips or terminals BEFORE starting  
the engine.  
8. Start the engine and run it at high idle speed  
(1800 RPM). The resistance should read

approximately 42* ohms at 77 F (25 C).  
9. Shut off engine, and move one of the ohmmeter  
leads to a good clean chassis ground connec-  
tion.  
10. Restart the engine and run it at high idle speed  
(1800 RPM). The resistance should be very  
high, at least 500,000 (500k) ohms.  
11. If the resistance readings differ significantly  
from the values indicated, recheck the brushes  
and the brush spring tension. If the brushes  
and slip rings are good, replace the rotor.  
12. Securely connect the leads to the brush termi-  
nals (see wiring Diagram) and replace the  
alternator cover if testing and service is com-  
plete.  
*NOTE: The resistance of the copper windings will  
change with temperature. Higher temperatures will  
produce higher resistance, and lower temperatures  
will produce lower resistance.

SHUNT FIELD COIL RESISTANCE AND GROUND TEST  
PROCEDURE (continued)  
PROCEDURE  
1. Turn the engine off.  
Shunt coil ground test:  
7. With the jumper plug or wire feed module  
unplugged from J5, measure the resistance  
between either the brown or blue wires and a  
good clean chassis ground. The resistance  
should be very high, 500,000 (500k) Ohms min-  
imum.  
8. If the resistance is still lower than 500,000  
(500k) Ohms, check the shunt coil lead wires  
between the test points and the coils. Also  
check the lead wire connecting the two shunt  
coils together inside of the generator. Look for  
pinched wires and damaged insulation. If the  
low resistance is determined to be between  
chassis wound and one of the shunt coils,  
replace the coil set.  
2. Open either or both of the doors on the  
machine.  
NOTE: Secure the doors in the open position using  
the door restraint system. If the machine does not  
have a door restraint system, remove the doors or  
securely restrain them to prevent them from falling  
closed.  
Test the shunt coil resistance:  
3. Remove the jumper plug or wire feed module  
harness plug from J5. Locate the brown and  
blue wires in J5, (pin numbers 3 and 5). Check  
the resistance between these two leads.  
Resistance should measure about 59 ohms at  
77°F. (25° C.)  
9. Reconnect the wires and replace any covers  
NOTE: It is always best to place probes in the lead  
end of Molex connectors. Molex pins can  
be easily damaged if probes are inserted in  
the connection pin end.  
4. If the resistance reading is correct, proceed to  
that have been removed.  
*NOTE: The resistance in the copper windings will  
change with temperature. Higher temperatures will  
produce slightly higher resistance, and lower tem-  
peratures will produce slightly lower resistance.  
5. If the resistance is significantly higher than 59*  
ohms, check the wiring between the test points  
and the shunt coils. Check the lead wire con-  
necting the two shunt coils together inside the  
generator frame. See the wiring diagram and  
the internal generator diagram. If these lead  
wires and connections are undamaged, one of  
the coils is likely open. Replace the shunt field  
coil set.  
6. If the resistance is significantly lower than 59*  
Ohms, check the wiring between the test points  
and the coils for damaged insulation, pinched  
wires, etc. If the lead wires and insulation are in  
good condition, replace the shunt coil set.

leads. (Leads 214 and 215) In earlier codes,  
these wires were color coded yellow and did not  
have numbers. See the wiring diagram.  
5. Using an ohmmeter; check the resistance  
between the following points. Resistance  
should read very high, 500,000 (500k) ohms  
minimum.  
From chassis ground and one of the exciter  
winding leads.  
From chassis ground and one of the neutral  
terminals of the 115 VAC receptacle. (The neu-  
tral terminal is the longer of the two slots.)  
From one of the neutral terminals of the 115  
VAC receptacle to one of the exciter leads.  
6. If any of these readings are less than 500,000  
(500k) ohms, be certain that the windings are  
completely dry and check for grounded compo-  
nents or wiring that remain connected to the  
stator, such as circuit breakers, receptacles,  
etc. See wiring diagram. If necessary, discon-  
nect and isolate the stator leads as close to the  
stator winding as possible.  
7. If the low resistance to ground, or between indi-  
vidual stator windings is determined to be with-  
in the stator, the stator is defective and should  
be replaced.

TROUBLESHOOTING AND REPAIR  
WELD CIRCUIT GROUND AND SHORT CIRCUIT TEST PROCEDURE  
(continued)  
PROCEDURE  
1. Turn the engine off.  
Weld circuit ground test:  
2. Measure the resistance between either of the  
two weld output terminals and a clean chassis  
ground connection.  
9. If the resistance measurement is too low, check  
the heavy weld current carrying leads and con-  
nections for damaged insulation or dirt buildup  
between the negative (Series Coils) and posi-  
tive (Interpole Coils) circuits. If the low resis-  
tance point is between the stator coils, the coils  
will require replacement or repair. Check for  
insulation damage between the yellow and  
white leads connecting to J5.  
The resistance measurement should be very  
high 500,000 (500k) Ohms minimum.  
If the resistance is lower than 500k Ohms:  
3. Remove the welding generator brushes, or pull  
them away from the commutator and isolate  
them so they cannot come in contact with any-  
thing except the brush holder they are attached  
to. Remove the jumper plug or wire feed mod-  
ule harness from Plug J5. See wiring diagram.  
4. Check the resistance between chassis ground  
and each output terminal, and between chassis  
ground and the commutator.  
If the commutator has low resistance to chassis  
ground, the armature will need to be replaced.  
5. If the resistance measured at the "POSITIVE"  
weld terminal is low, carefully examine the inter-  
pole coils, and the heavy leads, and the brush  
holders connected to the interpole coils. Check  
for damaged, dirty or missing brush holder insu-  
lators. Check for a damaged or dirty weld out-  
put terminal. Check the yellow lead connecting  
the brush holder to Plug J5.  
6. If the resistance measured at the "NEGATIVE"  
terminal is low, examine the range selector  
switch, the series coils, and the heavy leads  
and brush holders connected to them. Check  
for damaged, dirty or missing brush holder insu-  
lators. Check for a damaged or dirty weld out-  
put terminal. Check the white lead connecting  
the flashing diode to Plug J5.  
7. Test for a short circuit condition between  
the electrode and work circuits.  
8. With the brushes still isolated as described  
above, check the resistance between the two  
weld terminals. The resistance should be very  
high, 500,000 (500k) Ohms minimum.

Blackened Commutator:  
PROCEDURE  
A commutator that appears an even black color all  
around may indicate a grounded armature, shorted  
weld circuit, a serious overload condition, or out-of-  
adjustment rocker. It could also indicate the use of  
poor quality brushes, or brushes that have been  
contaminated with oil or some other foreign sub-  
stance.  
• Check the rocker position. Be certain that it is  
aligned with or very close to the factory drill  
mark. See Figure F.3. IMPORTANT: If the rocker  
position requires adjustment, do not over tighten  
the rocker clamping screw. This screw should be  
tightened to a torque of 70 to 75 Inch-Lbs. Over  
tightening can destroy the rocker.  
1. Shut off the engine.  
2. Open either, or both of the side doors of the  
Classic® 300 machine.  
NOTE: Secure the doors in the open position using  
the door restraint system. If the machine  
does not have a door restraint system,  
remove the doors or securely restrain them  
to prevent them from falling closed.  
3. Disconnect the negative battery cable.  
4. Remove the cover protecting the welder gener-  
ator brushes.  
Examine the Commutator:

• If brush quality or contamination is not suspect-  
ed, clean the commutator by lightly stoning the  
surface. See caution note on commutator stone  
use.

WELDING GENERATOR BRUSH AND COMMUTATOR  
INSPECTION AND SERVICE PROCEDURE (continued)  
Pitted and Are Damaged Commutator:  
Examine the brushes:  
If pitting and arc damage to the commutator is evi-  
dent, the machine may have been used with badly  
worn brushes. The brush spring tension may have  
been too low, or the brushes may have been stick-  
ing in the holders. An out-of-adjustment rocker or a  
serious overload may also cause this condition.  
The brushes and springs should all be in place and  
not be excessively worn. Brushes should be  
replaced if they are worn to within 1/4" of the pigtail  
lead.  
The pigtail lead of each brush should be positioned  
so it allows free movement of the brush while it  
wears.  
The brushes should be seated so that the face of  
each brush makes 95% minimum contact with the  
commutator. Lightly stone the commutator to seat  
the brushes. See caution note on commutator  
stone usage.  
Examine the inside of the brush clovers and  
other parts that are close to the commutator. If  
there is a significant amount of solder and  
debris that has been thrown from the commu-  
tator, the armature will need to be replaced and  
the stator coils must be carefully examined and  
tested for damage.  
Examine the brush holders:  
The brush holder insulators must be clean and in  
good condition and all of the hardware must be in  
place. Replace any insulators that are cracked or  
damaged in any way.  
When installing the brush holders, they should be  
rotated toward the brush retainer (clockwise rota-  
tion when facing the brush holder mounting screw.)  
until they stop. The edge of the brush holder plate  
should be parallel with the surface of the commu-  
tator and positioned .030 to .090 from the surface  
of the commutator. The brush holder mounting  
screw should be tightened to a torque of 24 to 28  
Ft Lbs.  
The brush holder plate and retainer assembly must  
be clean and smooth. Nothing should prevent free  
movement of the brushes. All electrical connec-  
tions to the brush holders must be clean, and tight.  
The recommended torque for 5/16-18 brush holder  
connection screws is 8 Ft-Lbs.  
If the brushes are worn out, replace them and  
re-surface or clean the commutator as needed.  
If the brush springs appear weak, or damaged  
in any way, replace them as well. The brush  
holder plates and retainers should be clean,  
smooth, and undamaged so the brushes can  
move freely as they wear.  
Check the rocker position. Be certain that it is  
aligned with or very close to the factory drill  
IMPORTANT: If the rocker position requires adjust-  
ment, do not over tighten the rocker clamping  
screw. This screw should be tightened to a torque  
of 70 to 75 Inch-Lbs. Over tightening can destroy  
the rocker.  
Uneven Commutator appearance:  
If the commutator appears to have some normal  
colored bars and some blackened bars, the arma-  
ture may be shorted.  
If excessive sparking is observed and/or the  
weld output is abnormal, the armature should  
be replaced.  
If the commutator has uneven color, but there is  
no sign of serious generator performance prob-  
lems, the commutator may only need to be  
cleaned by lightly stoning the surface. See cau-  
tion note on commutator stone usage.
