See Page 3 for comparison information. Reliable Blue Star engine drives are the standard for portable welder/generators. Blue Star Series Blue Star 145 Blue Star 145 DX Blue Star 185 Blue Star 185 DX (shown) Large 5-gallon fuel capacity (DX models) leads its class. Longer run time for welder or generator usage. See page 2 for fuel consumption data. Single-range amperage control makes setting amperage levels easy. Class-leading 6000-watt peak power (185 models) of regulated power to extend power tool life. Standard Auto Idle (DX models) idles engine while not in use. Reduces fuel consumption and noise. Bulletproof technology eliminates use of complicated circuit boards. Compact and portable, its small footprint uses little truck space. Optional running gear also makes the Blue Star one-man portable. Hour meter provides easy tracking of run hours for maintenance intervals (DX models). Receptacle covers improve reliability by protecting receptacles from debris. Reliable air-cooled OHV engines ensure consistent engine performance. 240 V and 120 V receptacles provide power for jobsite tools. Receptacles are circuit-breaker protected (optional 120 VAC GFCI receptacles are available). Quick-reference parameter chart provides convenient amperage setting guidance. Welder/generator is warranted by Miller for 3 years, parts and labor. Engine is warranted 2 years by engine manufacturer. Miller Electric Mfg. Co.
