Installation and Operator Instructions
Read this entire section before installation or operation
of the machine.
General Description
The Vantage® 410 CE is a diesel engine powered DC
multi-process welding power source and 115/230V 1ph
and 400V/3ph AC power generator. The engine drives a
generator that supplies three phase power for the DC
welding circuit, single phase and three phase power for
the AC auxiliary outlets. The DC welding control system
uses state of the art Chopper Technology (CT™) for
superior welding performance.
VRD (Voltage Reduction Device)
The VRD feature provides additional safety in the
CC-Stick mode especially in an environment with a
higher risk of electric shock such as wet areas and hot
humid sweaty conditions.
The VRD reduces the OCV (Open Circuit Voltage) at the
welding output terminals while not welding to less than
13VDC when the resistance of the output circuit is
above 200Ω (ohms).
The VRD requires that the welding cable connections be
kept in good electrical condition because poor
connections will contribute to poor starting. Having good
electrical connections also limits the possibility of other
safety issues such as heat-generated damage, burns
and fires.
The machine is shipped with the VRD switch in the “Off”
position. To turn it “On” or “Off”:
Turn the engine “Off”.
Disconnect the negative battery cable.
Lower the control panel by removing 4 front panel
screws. (Figure 1)

Location and Ventilation
The welder should be located to provide an unrestricted
flow of clean, cool air to the cooling air inlets and to
avoid restricting the cooling air outlets. Also, locate the
welder so that the engine exhaust fumes are properly
vented to an outside area.
Stacking
VANTAGE® 410 CE machines cannot be stacked.
Angle of Operation
Engines are designed to run in the level condition which
is where the optimum performance is achieved. The
maximum angle of continuous operation is 20 degrees in
all directions, 30 degrees Intermittent (less than 10
minutes continuous) in all directions. If the engine is to
be operated at an angle, provisions must be made for
checking and maintaining the oil level at the normal
(FULL) oil capacity in the crankcase.
When operating the welder at an angle, the effective fuel
capacity will be slightly less than the amount specified.

WARNING
Spark Arrester
Some laws may require that gasoline or diesel engines
be equipped with exhaust spark arresters when they are
operated in certain locations where unarrested sparks
may present a fire hazard. The standard muffler included
with this welder has a spark arrestor mounted to the
muffler outlet. This device also enables the machine to
conform to the sound power requirements of the
European Union and should not be removed unless of
cleaning. Please note: compliance to CE sound power is
achieved with spark arrestor installed.
An incorrect spark arrestor may lead to damage to the
engine or adversely affect performance.
WARNING
Remote Control
The Vantage® 410 CE is equipped with a 6-pin and a 14pin connector. When in the Arc Gouging or CV-WIRE
modes and when a remote control is connected to the 6pin Connector, the auto-sensing circuit automatically
switches the OUTPUT control from control at the welder
to remote control.
When in TOUCH START TIG mode and when a Amptrol
is connected to the 6-Pin Connector, the OUTPUT dial is
used to set the maximum current range of the
CURRENT CONTROL of the Amptrol.
When in the CC-STICK or DOWNHILL PIPE mode and
when REMOTE CONTROL is connected to the 6-Pin or
14-pin Connector, the OUTPUT CONTROL dial is used
to set the maximum current range of the OUTPUT
CONTROL of the REMOTE.
EXAMPLE: When the OUTPUT CONTROL on the
welder is set to 200 amps the current range on the
remote control will be Min.- 200 amps, rather than the
full Min.-Max. amps. Any current range that is less than
the full range provides finer current resolution for more
fine tuning of the output.
The 14-pin connector is used to directly connect a wire
feeder control cable. In the CV-WIRE mode, if the feeder
being used has a voltage control when the wire feeder
control cable is connected to the 14-Pin Connector, the
auto-sensing circuit automatically makes OUTPUT
CONTROL inactive and the wire feeder voltage control
active. Otherwise, the OUTPUT CONTROL is used to
preset the voltage.
NOTE: When a wire feeder with a built in welding
voltage control is connected to the 14-pin connector, do
not connect anything to the 6-pin connector.
WARNING
Electrical Connections
Machine Grounding
Because this portable engine driven welder creates its
own power, it is not necessary to connect its frame to an
earth ground, unless the machine is connected to
premises wiring (home, shop, etc.).
To prevent dangerous electric shock, other equipment to
which this engine driven welder supplies power must:
Be grounded to the frame of the welder using a
grounded type plug or be double insulated.

Do not ground the machine to a pipe that carries
explosive or combustible material.
When this welder is mounted on a truck or trailer, its
frame must be electrically bonded to the metal frame of
the vehicle. Use a 8mm
connected between the machine grounding stud and the
frame of the vehicle. When this engine driven welder is
connected to premises wiring such as that in a home or
shop, its frame must be connected to the system earth
ground. See further connection instructions in the
section entitled "Standby Power Connections" as well as
the article on grounding in the latest National Electrical
Code and the local code.
In general, if the machine is to be grounded, it should be
connected with a 8mm
earth ground such as a metal water pipe going into the
ground for at least ten feet and having no insulated
joints, or to the metal framework of a building which has
been effectively grounded.
