The Bobcat Advantage Remote start/stopTake control and eliminate engine noise. Easily turn your Bobcat machine on and offremotely so it only runs when you need it. Get more out of each tank, extend timebetween maintenance and work without the hassle of walking back to your machine.The remote start/stop on Bobcat 225 welder/generators is installed and backed byMiller — so it’s just as easy to use and dependable as your Bobcat machine.SIMPLETWO-WAYCOMMUNICATIONOne button: pressto start the welder/generator; pressagain to turn it off.After start or stop commandis received by the welder/generator the fob lights upand beeps.DURABLEEASILY ORDERADDITIONAL FOBSTough andwater-resistant,with a three-yearwarranty.Order stock number286385.Savings on fuel and maintenanceWhen your machine is out of reach, it’s a hassle to walk back to turn it off — so youlet it run all day. Running a welder/generator when you’re not welding or generatingAC power uses more fuel and adds unnecessary hours to the engine, which leads to anincreased need for oil changes, air filters, fuel filters and even generator brushes.You’re wasting money on fuel and doing more routine maintenance than you need to.A Bobcat welder/generator with remote start/stop is quick and easy to turn off whenit’s not being used. You spend less money on fuel, and less time and money onmaintenance because there are fewer engine hours.SAVEUP TO 1,500ANNUALLY ON FUEL AND MAINTENANCEBY SHUTTING THE MACHINE OFF.Less noiseThe noise of a welder/generator running all day is irritating — and can even keep youfrom hearing sounds that warn you of potential hazards.When you turn your Bobcat off with remote start/stop, you’ll help create a moreefficient working environment by reducing the number of machines running on ajobsite and increasing your awareness of warning sounds.WHEN YOU DON’TNEED POWER,TURN THEMACHINE OFFREMOTELY.0dBHands-free startingECHOKE TECHNOLOGYCarbureted Bobcat welder/generators now have eChoke technology, which automaticallysets the proper air/fuel mixture and eliminates the need to manually engage the choke,so cold-starting is now hands free.eChoke is a trademark of Kohler Co.FOR MORE CONSISTENT COLD-WEATHER STARTS.Designed for reliabilitySmall, light designFrom Appleton, Wisconsin USA, our welder/generators are the most rugged, durableand long-lasting in the industry. We manufacture them to exceed requirements forextreme working conditions and they are hard-working from the core with:Bobcat welder/generators take up less space on trucksand trailers — leaving more room on your truck for otherequipment and tools. Plus, they’re easier to move aroundjobsites — even with weld cables attached. Copper windings and iron generator components for aquality-built machine Lugged — not soldered — heavy internal leads forbetter field durability Superior cooling technology for maximumperformance and engine life Protective doors to cover the weld studs andreceptacles as required by OSHA and CSA forjobsite safety Lift hook integrated into the center frame, which boltsto the machine’s base for greater durability2Long runtimesLarge 12-gallon fuel capacity means many hours of run timebefore refueling.Versatile AC and DC weld outputProvides quality welds on all types of metals. DC is smoothand easy to run while AC stick is used when arc blow occurs.

The Bobcat Advantage Air filterFuel fillOil filterEasy maintenanceWith its intuitive design, the daily maintenance of our Bobcat welder/generators is fastand easy. Front panel maintenance displays help you know when your equipmentneeds to be serviced. Servicing is simple because of: Oil checks that can be performed easily through the top of the machine by theaccess door Toolless panels that allow for quick access Single-side fuel fill and oil drain/filterOil fill Oil level checkFuel filter Oil drainReversed generator flowExclusive engine and generator packaging design operates cooler and more efficiently.The engine is rotated towards the front to create more efficient airflow. More efficientairflow and exclusive engine location are significant contributors to reduced soundlevel and size reduction. Hot air recirculation is eliminated when machine is mounted intight spots, and internal parts are kept cool for optimal performance. Accu-Rated — not inflated generator powerTypical equipment power usageOur Accu-Rated 11,000 watts of usable peak power is delivered for a minimum of30 seconds. Accu-Rated means peak power is usable for maximum generator loadssuch as plasma cutting, Millermatic MIG welders and motor starting. Accu-Ratedpeak power beats the competition’s very short-duration peak or surge power.Use your peak power, it’s more than a number.Bobcat welder/generators will easily start and run thefollowing equipment:BobcatCompetitorWaveform ComparisonGenerator Power Curve300Tools and motors aredesigned to operatewithin 10 percent of120/240 V.
