ABSTRACT:
A fueling assembly for a fuel tank positioned in an engine driven welder. The fueling assembly includes a filler tube, a fuel level monitor and a grommet. The filler tube has a bottom portion and a top portion. The bottom portion of the filler tube has a cross-sectional area that is greater that any region in the top portion of the filler tube. The fuel level monitor includes a fuel level sensor position in the fuel tank and/or filler tube. The fuel level monitor includes a fuel level indicator positioned on a side of the housing so as to enable an operator to simultaneously view the fuel level indicator and the opening used to direct fuel into the filler tube during the filling of the fuel tank. The grommet at least partially seals the tube access opening to inhibit fluids entering the interior of the housing of the engine driven welder.
