300 HE
PERFORMANCE
• Industrial 3-cylinder, smooth-running, water-cooled diesel engine:
– Kubota
®
D1503
• Fuel gauge on control panel to easily monitor fuel level.
• Engine hour meter to track scheduled maintenance.
• Additional engine gauges indicate oil pressure and engine temperature.
• All day welding with 16 gallon (60.6 liters) plastic fuel tank with
combination fuel cap/fuel gauge.
• Oil drain valve and tube are standard.
• Compact size for installation on truck beds.
• Local/Remote switch and receptacle are factory installed for easy
connection of the remote control.
Stick Welding
• Optional K924-4 Remote Control Kit for stick welding. Includes
remote box and 100 ft. (30 m) cable. Includes local/remote switch
and receptacle for older machine control panels. Make fine current
adjustments up to 100 ft. (30 m) from the machine.
Wire Welding
• Optional Wire Feed Module for CV-wire welding. Increases productivity
and reduces welding costs. Rated at 300 amps, 35 volts at 60% duty
cycle, 325 amps, 34 volts at 35% duty cycle. Recommended wire
feeders include LN-25 Ironworker
™
or Activ8
™
Across-the-Arc models.
Module has 14-pin connector for Lincoln Electric wire feeders that
use a control cable with 115V AC input: LN-7 GMA and LN-8. Built-in
contactor for “cold-tip” electrode. (When CV wire welding with optional
Wire Feed Module, idler may need to be set to “high” position for low
current processes.)
• Optional K2464-1 Remote Control Kit for stick and wire welding is
available for machines that have the Wire Feed Module installed. Make
output adjustments up to 100 ft. (30 m) from the machine.
Arc Performance
• 350 Amp maximum output.
• Arc gouging with up to 3/16 in. (4.7 mm) carbons.
• 2/0 (70 mm
2
) cable recommended for 200-250 ft. (61-76 m)
combined lengths of electrode and work cables.
Generator Performance
• 3,000 total watts of AC power from a 120V or 240V duplex
receptacle for power tools and lights.
• Circuit breaker protection. 120V AC 20 amp output will
operate up to a 9 in. (229 mm) grinder.
• Weather-protected receptacle covers.
• GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) is sealed from
moisture for more reliable operation.
