Accu-Rated Generator Power

Miller's Accu-Rated 11,000 watts (12,000 with EFI) of usable peak power is delivered for a minimum of 30 seconds. Accu-Rated means peak power is usable for maximum generator loads such as plasma cutting, Millermatic MIG welders and motor starting. Accu-Rated peak power beats the competition's very short-duration peak or surge power.  Use your peak power; it's more than a number.

Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) Option

Benefits vs Carburetor Models
 
  • 12% to 27% better fuel economy!
  • Reduced emissions - 33% lower HC+Nox levels and 27% lower CO! (EPA 1000 Hour Certification)
  • Easy starting in all climates with no choke required
  • Elimination of carburetor icing
  • Better high-altitude performance (electric fuel pump is recommended)
  • EFI is more reliable when using equipment infrequently
  • 12,000 watts of generator power and more weld output

Highest Temperature Ratings

Rated at the industry's highest temperatures, 104F (40C), the Bobcat's weld and generator outputs deliver reliable performance and the longest life.

Fully-Enclosed Case

Delivers these advantages:
  • Decreases sound levels by 1/3rd over previous models.
  • Protects the engine and internal components.
  • Virtually eliminates hot air recirculation when the machine is mounted in tight spots.

Skewed Rotor Design

Skewed Rotor Design

Unique ten-degree skewed rotor design optimized generator performance for smoother power - not spiked power found with other brands. The biggest benefit is achieved when used as a generator to power any device with an electronic control: air conditioners, furnaces, appliances, secondary controllers, etc.

Versatile AC and DC Weld Power with Tri-Cor Technology

Provides quality welds on all types of metals. DC has Tri-Cor technology which makes it smooth and easy to run while AC is used when arc blow occurs. 

Exclusive Maintenance Functions

Maintenance is easier with front panel fuel gauge and display that reads engine hours and hours left before an oil change is due.
 
 

Output Stud and Receptacle Covers

Super-tough protective armor has standard output stud and receptacle covers which are required by OSHA and CSA for job site safety.
