Lincoln Electric Expands Wireless Remote Feature for Second SAE-300 MP Model

Leading welding equipment manufacturer now offers three engine drives with easy-to-use remote control capabilities

Cleveland – Lincoln Electric has extended its wireless remote capability to an additional engine-driven welder model: the rugged and economical 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 anywhere between 1 and 30 seconds. 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 units fit right into operators’ hands and have a 400-foot (122-meter) range, depending on site obstructions. They also stow easily in trucks or job boxes.

Lincoln Electric earlier this year introduced the first of its new, factory-installed wireless remote controls for two versions of the Cross Country® 300 engine-driven welder: the textured, stainless-steel case and gray-painted-steel case, as well as the textured, stainless steel case SAE-300 MP® Perkins® 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.
