What model is this welder

admin

Hi i am new at this forum and when i asked this same question over at tractor by net they directed me here.  I am looking at this pull start lincoln welder/generator and would like to know if i should jump on it or if is not worth my time. What i plan to use this for is to fix it up and try and learn as much as i can about this gas welders, have a nice small project to clean up threw the winter, and if it worth it to take it to small jobs(when i fill confident about my welding) and make a little money on the side.  Well thanks in advanceShawn Attached Images
Reply:By the look of the exhaust, it isn't burning any oil so maybe the engine is in good shape. How many amps is it rated at? Check the flywheel to see if you can mount an elec starter on it. If so you could run  a small batt charger off the welder to keep the batt charged. If it has enough amps to run 1/8" 7018 you can build/repair about anything you desire. Good luck with it!!                            MikeOl' Stonebreaker  "Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes"Hobart G-213 portableMiller 175 migMiller thunderbolt ac/dc stick Victor O/A setupMakita chop saw
Reply:I saw this on CL and the seller has not got back to me on the info about this welder whether it is ACDC or just AC.  I have the same style kohler on my gravly so i would look at a starter option.  The guy wants 400 for it but i want to get the skinny on it first.Shawn

Reply:Well I missed this one completely denrep!Looks like a Weldanpower 130 Shawn and obviously a Lincoln.  Good little AC only machine but you can't weld and use the auxiliary power at the same time as with the Weldanpower 150 and up.  IF it runs and welds I'm with denrep on $200 tops and if it only runs or not then $50-100.  Looks like it has leads although short but if they're any good and have a ground clamp and electrode holder that's worth $50 easy.Would make a nice winter project in my opinion.  Has the owner set a price?MM200 w/Spoolmatic 1Syncrowave 180SDBobcat 225G Plus - LP/NGMUTT Suitcase WirefeederWC-1S/Spoolmatic 1HF-251D-1PakMaster 100XL '68 Red Face Code #6633 projectStar Jet 21-110Save Second Base!
