Abstract

An engine driven welding machine that includes a frame with lower tubular portions that extend across the ends of the frame. The lower tubular portions make it easier to lift the engine driven welding machine onto an elevated surface, such as the bed of a truck. The frame may include two different lifting portions that extend across the same side or end of the frame at different levels. For example, two tubular portions of the frame may extend generally horizontally across the same side or end of the frame to provide two lifting areas at different levels of the frame.
