Reply:OP here - thanks for all the comments. Hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving (if you're in the US...)Anyway I decided to keep the female ports on the welder as they are, since being AC/DC obviously there are 4 the cost to replace all + the two lead ends seemed significantly more than just the tapered ends. Hopefully I won't regret that in the future... also there is something to "not broke don't fix it" at least until I have some hours in on this machine and can weigh additional pros / cons as I learn them. Always possible to change it later if needed.The ends it came with which I have now removed with seem to be really beat up, but I guess I'll hang on to them just in case they turn out useful for something else later.There were some other oddball things about this welder (typical of second hand / Craigslist purchases in my experience) which I'll mention...Primary power cable was #10 though the machine decal calls for #8. Obviously this must have sufficed for the prior owner (low usage / low duty cycle?). BUT this cable was fitted with a 30A locking-style plug. From there a pigtail was made up using #14 (!) cord which went from a matching 30A locking female receptacle to a 60-50P type plug. On BOTH ends of this pigtail there was melted plastic inside the plugs around the conductors! Some of this was visible externally if you looked closely. The #10 & #14 cables themselves actually seem OK (though I may chuck them just in case the insulation on the inside is heat damaged). The cord where it attached to the machine had pulled out of the cable clamp and exposed the inner stranded wires (though just the insulation).Based on some woodworking machines I've gotten from CL I know to look for this kind of thing but I guess it's always worth double (or triple) checking anything second hand for craziness! Anyway its now all been wired appropriately and given a once-over, ready for power test which is pending getting the receptacle wired up to a new breaker in the garage... maybe later this week.Dave |
