Miller Bobcat 260 Engine-Driven Welders

Miller Bobcat 260 Welder Generator Improves on the Miller Bobcat 250 with Remote Start/Stop and eChoke Technology

Compact and ruggedly built, this welder/generator is ideal for stick and flux-cored welding on-site or in the shop.

One of the biggest hassles of working on-site is when your machine is out of reach and you have to walk back to it to turn it off in between tasks. To avoid wasting time going back and forth all day, most welders opt to just leave the machine running. While that’s a big time saver, you end up wasting money on fuel. You also have unnecessary noise on the job site. The Bobcat 260 changes all that.

Like the remote start control on many cars, the remote start/stop key fob with the Bobcat 260 (and the 225) allows you to start and stop the machine wirelessly. This not only saves you time and fuel, it extends maintenance intervals and makes the jobsite less noisy so you can actually converse with others instead of yelling over the noise of a running engine. The remote is installed and backed by Miller, so you can count on it working flawlessly.

Easy-to-use Key Fob for the Miller Bobcat 260

Durable: Tough, water resistant construction backed by a 3-year warranty
Simple: One button simplicity—press to start, press again to shut down.
Two-way communication: After pressing the button to start or stop the machine, an indicator on the fob lights up and the fob beeps to alert you that the command was received. Even if you’re out of earshot of the machine, you’ll know it has stopped running.
Spare fobs, no problem: Need an extra fob? Just place an order for one (part #286385)

Bobcat’s eChoke Technology Makes for More Consistent Cold-Weather Starting

Manually setting the choke on a carbureted welder/generator is another worksite hassle, especially in cold weather. The Bobcat 260 (and 225) are equipped with Kohler’s innovative eChoke technology to make cold-starting quick, hands-free, and hassle-free. It automatically sets the ideal air/fuel mixture so there’s no need to take your gloves off and fiddle with the choke setting.

Optional Electronic fuel injection (EFI) Model

Choose the optional 260 EFI gasoline engine model for better performance and fuel economy than what’s possible with a carbureted engine. Electronic fuel injection optimizes the air/fuel ratio for longer runtimes, fewer emissions, and improved performance. You can make up the extra cost in fuel savings over just a few months of use.

Remote Panel Kit for Truck Mounted Miller Bobcat 260 Welders

With Miller’s Remote Panel Kit (SKU 951850) you can access the output panels of a Bobcat welder/generator at the point of use so you don’t have to climb onto the truck as much. Not only does this save time, it also cuts down on the potential for slip and fall injuries.
