Lincoln Electric expands wireless remote feature

Lincoln Electric has extended its wireless remote capability to an additional engine-driven welder model, the SAE-300® MP with a Kubota® engine and standard gray paint.
The factory-installed wireless remote control allows the operator to activate the glow plug from between 1 and 30 secs. Users also can remotely start or stop the engine, activate high or low idle or adjust the fine current control output.
The small, weather-resistant control unit fit right into operators’ hands and has a 400 ft (122 m) range, depending on site obstructions. It also stows easily in trucks or job boxes.
Earlier this year, Lincoln Electric introduced the first of its factory-installed wireless remote controls for two versions of the Cross Country® 300 engine-driven welder.
The wireless remote controls are not currently offered as a standalone accessory nor can they be retrofitted into older, non-wireless Cross Country and SAE-MP 300 models.
