Reply:Don't know.Just out of curiosity, why are you even considering a welder that the typical weldor has never even heard of?  Are you in another country and it's the local brand?How desperately do you need that machine's full output, or is something other than budget driving this decision?  I'd rather have a reconditioned Hobart HH175 for $400 than that, which I'm assuming better not cost more than $600, considering that a Hobart IM210 or Miller MM210 (the best of this class) is only a little over a thousand dollars.
Reply:Find a Miller, Lincoln or Hobart 175 and live happily ever after. You'll probably find that you have to pay for shipping on that machine and parts will be difficult or non-existent.

Reply:I don't imagine there are too many if any NZ brands here in the US for anyone to help you with as far as a comparison. Sorry guy.

Reply:ive never really understood the duty cycle thing so could some please explain it to me?
Reply:The amount of time in every 10-minute cycle that you can weld.  A 20% duty cycle at a certain amperage means that you can weld at that amperage for 2 minutes (total, broken up however you need) out of that 10-minute period.With most machines, a lower amperage will raise the duty cycle.
