Lincoln Bulldog 5500 Kohler Engine Driven Welder Generator(ID 15488)

Built with heavy steel roll-tube wrap-around protection, the Lincoln Bulldog 5500 Kohler engine driven welder generator (ID 15488) withstands jobsite truck transit and rough field work without frame cracking. Farm equipment breakdowns leave structural steel gates and trailers stranded in pastures without electrical drops. Lincoln builds this multi-purpose gas unit with a 140-amp AC welding alternator and a 5,500-watt auxiliary power generator, driven by an industrial 9.5HP Kohler engine with cast-iron bore protection.

You strike fast AC stick arcs with 6011 and 7014 rods to fuse rusted steel plates without grinding down to bare metal. The 1-1/4-inch steel tubing frame protects the engine crankcase, fuel tank, and electrical control panel when shifting on unpaved ranch tracks. Five protected power outlets deliver clean 120V and 240V current to run angle grinders, battery chargers, and air compressors simultaneously on remote jobsites.
