is provided with the following:
Oil Pressure Warning Alarm
In the event of low oil pressure (engine), this welder/generator
is equipped with an engine protection fail safe system . If
low oil pressure is detected while operating the welder/
generator, the engine protection system will shut down the
engine.
If this condition (low oil pressure) should occur, please refer
to the engine troubleshooting table in this manual.
Excitation System
The SGW-250SS welder/generator uses a brushless
exciter to create rated output electricity. This system will
use the mechanical energy generated by the 3600 RPM
engine to spin the rotor (or armature) inside the generator
(or alternator end).
The motion created by the rotor (which holds copper coils)
spins inside a housing of permanent magnets called the
"STATOR". A magnetic field is created by the stator and
produces an electrical current.
Engine
The SGW-250SS is powered by an air-cooled, 4-cycle
HONDA gasoline engine. This engine is designed to meet
every performance requirement for generator. Reference
Table 1, page 9 for engine specifications.
In keeping with MQ Power's policy of constantly improving
its products, the specifications quoted herein are subject to
change without prior notice.
Figures 2 and 3 (pages 14-15) show the basic controls and
indicators for the SGW-250SS welder/generator.

SGW-250SS —TRAILER SAFETY GUIDELINES
Tires/Wheels/Lug Nuts
Tires and wheels are a very important and critical
components of the trailer. When specifying or replacing the
trailer wheels it is important the wheels, tires, and axle are
properly matched.
CAUTION:
DO NOT attempt to repair or modify a
wheel. DO NOT install in inner tube to
correct a leak through the rim. If the rim
is cracked,
the air
pressure in
the inner tube may cause pieces
of the rim to explode (break off)
with great force and cause serious
eye or bodily injury.
Tire Wear/Inflation
Tire inflation pressure is the most important factor in tire life.
Pressure should be checked cold before operation DO NOT
bleed air from tires when they are hot. Check inflation
pressure weekly during use to insure the maximum tire life
and tread wear.
Table 3 (Tire Wear Troubleshooting) will help pinpoint the
causes and solutions of tire wear problems.
Suspension
The leaf suspension springs and associated components
(Figure 2) should be visually inspected every 6,000 miles for
signs of excessive wear, elongation of bolt holes, and
loosening of fasteners. Replace all damaged parts
(suspension) immediately. Torqued suspension components
as detailed in Table 4.
CAUTION:
Figure 2. Major Suspension Components
NOTE
ALWAYS wear safety glasses when removing
or installing force fitted parts. Failure to
comply may result in serious injury.

Lug Nut Torque Requirements
It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper wheel
mounting torque on the trailer. Be sure to use only the
fasteners matched to the cone angle of the wheel. Proper
procedure for attachment of the wheels is as follows:
1. Start all wheel lug nuts by hand.
2. Torque all lug nuts in sequence. See Figure 3. DO NOT
torque the wheel lug nuts all the way down. Tighten
each lug nut in 3 separate passes as defined by Table 5.
3. After first road use, retorque all lug nuts in sequence.
Check all wheel lug nuts periodically.

is on secure level ground so that it cannot slide or shift
around. Install the generator in a manner so the exhaust
fumes will not be discharged in the direction of nearby homes.
The installation site must be relatively free from moisture
and dust. All electrical equipment should be protected from
excessive moisture. Failure to do will result in deterioration
of the insulation and will result in short circuits and grounding.
Foreign materials such as dust, sand, lint and abrasive
materials will cause excessive wear, to the engine and
alternator parts.
Indoor Installation
Exhaust gases from gasoline engines are extremely
poisonous. Whenever an engine is installed indoors the
exhaust fumes must be vented to the outside. The engine
should be installed at least two feet from any outside wall.
Using an exhaust pipe which is too long or too small can
cause excessive back pressure which will cause the engine
to heat excessively and possibly burn the valves.
Eliminate the danger of deadly carbon monoxide gas.
Remember that exhaust fumes from any gasoline engine
are very poisonous if discharged in a closed room, but
harmless if allowed to mix with the outside air. If the generator
is installed indoors, you must make provisions for venting
the engine exhaust to the outside of the building.
CAUTION
CAUTION :
Pay close attention to ventilation when
operating the generator inside tunnels and
caves. The engine exhaust contains
noxious elements.
:
An electric shock may happen when
vibrators are used. Pay close attention to
handling when operating vibrators and
always use rubber boots and gloves to
insulate the body from electrical shock.
Selecting Optimum Welding Cable
Use the table below (Table 2) to select the best cable for the
total length and current of the application being used.

SGW-250SS — PRE-SETUP
General Inspection Prior to Operation
The SGW-250SS utilizes a generator that has been thoroughly
inspected and accepted prior to shipment from the factory.
However, be sure to check for damaged parts or components,
or loose nuts and bolts, which could have occurred in transit.
Ground
The nut and ground terminal on the generator should always
be used to connect the generator to a suitable ground. The
ground path should be of #8 size wire.
Connect the terminal of the ground wire between the lock
washer and the nut and tighten the nut fully. Connect their
end of the wire to a suitable ground.
Circuit Breaker
To protect the generator from an overload, a 2-pole, 30 amp,
circuit breaker is provided. Make sure to switch the circuit
breaker to the "OFF" position prior to starting the engine.
Extension Cable
When electric power is to be provided to various tools or
loads at some distance from the generator, extension cords
are normally used. Cables should be sized to allow for
distance in length and amperage so that the voltage drop
between the generator and point of use (load) is held to a
minimum. Use the cable selection chart (Table 3 ) as a guide
for selecting proper cable size.

Main Circuit Breaker (2-Pole)
This 2-pole 25 amp breaker protects the generator from short
circuiting or overloading from the 60 Hz single phase load.
Idle Control Switch
The unit is provided with an automatic idle control for noise
suppression and fuel cost reduction. The automatic idle
control automatically engages under a no-load condition.
With the automatic idle control switched “ON”, the engine
revolutions will automatically drop to about 2100 rpm (lowspeed operation) within 7 seconds after the welding stops.
When welding is resumed, the engine speed is automatically
increased to about 3600 rpm (high-speed operation) as soon
as the electrode contacts the base metal
This provides for smooth welding operation. With AC loads
of more than 100W (such as lighting equipment, motorpowered tools, submersible water pumps, etc.), the engine
runs at high speed. When a no load condition is produced,
the engine automatically shows down.
Turn the idle control switch to the “ON” (up) position when
the welder or AC loads of more than 100W is connected.
Turn the idle control switch to the “OFF” (down) position
when AC loads of less than 100W or when a magnetic switch
is used.

SGW-250SS — LOAD APPLICATION
Single Phase Load
Always be sure to check the nameplate on the generator
and equipment to insure the wattage, amperage and
frequency requirements are satisfactorily supplied by the
generator for operating the equipment.
Generally, the wattage listed on the nameplate of the
equipment is its rated output. Equipment may require 130—
150% more wattage than the rating on the nameplate, as
the wattage is influenced by the efficiency, power factor and
starting system of the equipment.
NOTE
If wattage is not given on the
equipment's name plate, approximate
wattage may be determined by
multiplying nameplate voltage by the
nameplate amperage.
WATTS = VOLTAGE x AMPERAGE
The power factor of this generator is 1.0. See Table 5. below

Removing Water from the Fuel ank
After prolonged use, water and other impurities accumulate in the bottom of the fuel tank. Occasionally remove
the drain cock and drain the contents. During cold
weather, the more empty are inside the tank, the easier it
is for water to accumulate inside the tank. This can be
reduced by always keeping the fuel tank as full as possible.
Fuel Addition
Always add clean, fresh unleaded fuel. Always pour
through mesh lining.
Rectifier Fins
Periodically inspect the rectifier fins for contamination.
ALWAYS keep fins free of dirt.
Air Removal
If air enters the fuel system of a gasoline engine, starting
becomes impossible. After running out of gasoline, or
after disassembling the fuel system, bleed the system by
following this procedure:
Turn the operation switch to the ‘ON’ position for 15-30
seconds. Try again, if needed.
Cleaning the Fuel Strainer
Clean the fuel strainer if it contains dust or water. Remove
dust or water in the strainer cap and wash it in gasoline.
