Heavy-Duty Low-Speed Kubota V2403 Industrial Diesel Engine
The cleanest, greenest diesel power available. Kubota T4F models utilize diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) technology to keep the air clean with NO exhaust after-treatment maintenance.
Quiet Operation
Improves work site safety and communication.
Digital Meters with SunVision™
Enables welding parameters to be viewed with greater clarity at virtually any angle. Meters can be seen clearly even in direct sunlight.
Industrial USB Port
Quickly upload the latest software and download machine log files to retrieve in-depth information such as diagnostics and machine statistics.
Auto Remote Sense™ (ARS)
Detects if a remote control is plugged into the 14-pin receptacle and eliminates confusion of a remote/panel switch.
Simple-to-Set Controls Requires no elaborate procedure - just select process and weld!
HD Powder Coat
All painted sheet metal is pretreated with a zinc-rich primer to provide extra protection against rust & corrosion (comparable to stainless steel).
Advanced Features for the Professional Welder
Adaptive Hot Start™ makes starting stick electrodes easy without creating an inclusion.
Infinite arc control available in the Stick and Wire modes for easier fine tuning of tough-to-weld materials and out-of-position applications.
Lift-Arc™ TIG provides arc starting that minimizes the risk of electrode/work contamination without the need for high frequency.
Low OCV Stick (VRD)
When activated, reduces the open-circuit voltage to 15 volts when the power source is not in use, increasing operator safety without compromising arc starts.
Other Standard Features
Output contactor control, automatic idle, thermal overload protection, and 120-volt engine block heater.
