The Ranger 260MPX engine driven welder/generator excels on the job. The unit's industry-leading design makes it smaller, lighter and quieter than other machines in its class, while an intuitive user interface with advanced technology helps simplify operation and improve arc control. You can also count on a reliable source of clean generator power to run a variety of tools and sensitive equipment. Check out the features below:
The Ranger 260MPX sets a new standard for engine-driven welder/generators with its industry-leading design that offers significant advantages over competitive machines in its class. This innovative unit is up to 20% smaller, providing more space for additional tools and equipment on crowded job sites or service trucks. At up to 25% lighter than comparable machines, it offers enhanced maneuverability around job sites, reducing operator fatigue during transportation and setup. Perhaps most impressively, the Ranger 260MPX operates at up to 60% quieter than similar units, dramatically reducing noise levels to help enhance safety, improve communication, and create a more comfortable working environment for operators and nearby personnel.
The Ranger 260MPX combines an innovative user interface with advanced technology to deliver superior welding performance and operational simplicity. The easy-to-read digital screen with intuitive push-and-turn controls makes parameter adjustment quick and straightforward. Ready.Set.Weld technology simplifies setup by providing recommended settings for various applications, helping operators of all skill levels achieve optimal results. Chopper Technology enhances arc control for improved weld quality, while CrossLinc remote technology enables convenient arc adjustments directly at the weld location, eliminating trips back to the power source. The unit also features maintenance alerts that keep operators informed when service is needed, helping to maximize uptime and extend equipment life. With 9.5kW of clean AC generator power that delivers just 5% Total Harmonic Distortion, the Ranger 260MPX can safely power sensitive electronics like laptops and diagnostic equipment without concern. Operators can simultaneously run generator power and weld without interruption, making this versatile machine an ideal solution for construction sites, maintenance operations, and field repairs where both welding capability and reliable power generation are essential requirements.
