Backed by Lincoln Electrics Service Parts Commitment We will ship in-stock parts within 24 hours of receipt of the order to anywhere within the U.S. Lincoln Ranger 225 Arc Performance: Smooth DC welding output for a broad range of stick electrodes, such as Lincoln Excalibur 7018 (AWS E7018) and Fleetweld 5P+ (AWS E6010). Also capable of MIG, Flux-Cored, and TIG welding. Choose DC(+) for a deep penetrating arc or DC(-) for less penetration on thin sheet metal. Rated 225 amps/25 volts/40% duty cycle and 210 amps/25 volts/100% duty cycle for CC and 200 amps/20 volts for CV. All rated outputs at 104¡;F (40¡;C). Simple Output Range Selector can be used to select one of three amperage ranges with generous overlap for Stick/TIG welding, or one Wire Feed welding range. Fine adjustment control allows you to dial in just the right welding output for each application. Add productivity with self-shielded flux-cored CV wire welding. Compatible with Lincoln LN-25 PRO and LN-15 Across-the-Arc wire feeders for use with a variety of wire electrodes. Expand to AC TIG welding with optional Precision TIG 225 or Invertec V205-T AC/DC (powered by AC generator power from the Ranger 225) for aluminum and other alloy welding. Arc Gouge with up to 5/32; (4.0 mm) carbon electrode. Easy to maintain - Engine requires an oil change only every 100 hours and every 200 hours for the oil filter. Lincoln Ranger 225 AC Generator Performance 10,500 watts peak AC generator power. Most peak power in its class. Use for motor starting. 9,000 watts continuous AC generator power. For high capacity needs such as a back-up generator, powering a Pro-Cut plasma cutter, an Invertec inverter welder or a Precision TIG welder. Also for lights, a grinder or other power tools. Delivers up to 38 amps from the single 120V/240V full-KVA receptacle. Standard circuit breakers protect the machine as well as your power tools. Delivers up to 40 amps from two 120V duplex receptacles. Get two tools in one when you use the Ranger 225 as a power generator for emergency standby power, and/or for welding. Optional GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) Kit available for additional protection from electrical shock. Simultaneous welding and AC generator power power up to 3,950 watts while welding at 145 amps (AC generator power is reduced when welding simultaneously per table below). Take on more jobs - plug in an optional Pro-Cut 55 plasma cutter to cleanly cut metal. Specifications Click the image below to view the full spec sheet.     Accessories
