Blue Star®Series Gas Engine-Driven Welder/

AC Generator

Issued January 2008 • Index No. ED/2.5

Compact and portable, its small

footprint uses little truck space.

Optional running gear also makes

the Blue Star one-man portable.

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.

Standard Auto Idle (DX models) idles

engine while not in use. Reduces fuel

consumption and noise.

Reliable air-cooled OHV engines ensure

consistent engine performance.

Quick-reference parameter chart provides

convenient amperage setting guidance.

Hour meter provides easy tracking of

run hours for maintenance intervals

(DX models).

The Power of Blue®

Welder/generator is warranted by Miller for 3 years, parts and labor.

Engine is warranted 2 years by engine manufacturer.

Class-leading 6000-watt peak power

(185 models) of regulated power to

extend power tool life.

Bulletproof technology eliminates use of

complicated circuit boards.

Receptacle covers improve reliability by

protecting receptacles from debris.

240 V and 120 V receptacles provide

power for jobsite tools. Receptacles are

circuit-breaker protected (optional

120 VAC GFCI receptacles are available).

Single-range amperage control makes

setting amperage levels easy.

Reliable Blue Star engine drives

are the standard for portable

welder/generators.

Fuel Consumption Data

•5-gallon fuel capacity on DX models. 1.7 and 1.8 gallon on

standard models.

•Under a continuous load of 3000 watts of generator power, the

Blue Star 185 DX would run for about 6.5 hours.

•Welding at 130 amps (at 30% duty cycle), the Blue Star 185 DX

would run for about 15 hours of operation.

Why Upgrade?

Blue Star®Value

Power Usage Guide

• 96% of current owners rated

their Blue Star as “good to

very good value.”

*Based on an independent survey

of thousands of Blue Star owners.

The Power Generator is designed to provide strong power while keeping the voltage within

10% of 120/240 VAC. 120/240 VAC ±10% is the range where tools and motors are designed

to operate. This increases tool/motor performance and tool/motor life.
