ENGINE OPERATION
Operate the welder with the doors closed. Leaving the
doors open changes the designed air flow and can
cause overheating.
STARTING THE CLASSIC® 300D KUBOTA V2203M
DIESEL ENGINE
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).
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”.
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.
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 start-
ing, operating and maintenance instructions, and
parts lists.

See additional warning information at the
front of this operatorʼs manual.
WARNING
COLD WEATHER STARTING:
With a fully charged battery and the proper weight oil,
the engine should start satisfactorily even down to
about -5°F (-20°C), it maybe desirable to install cold-
starting aides.
Note: Extreme cold weather staring may require longer
glow plug operation.
Under NO conditions should ether or other starting
fluids be used!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION:
At higher altitudes, output derating may be necessary.
For maximum rating, derate the welder 4% for every
300 meters (984 ft.) above 1500 meters (4920 ft.).
Contact a Kubota Service Representative for any
engine adjustments that may be required.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
1. 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
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.
When hauling the welder between job sites, close the
valve on the water separator.
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.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
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.
