So while I was trying to figure out how to make my Lincoln 140amp 120v unit work better, I fell into a Lincoln 175 amp 240v weldpak. As suggested I installed 0.025" L-56 wire and had at it. What a difference! The power and speed is ridiculous. One quick question, with welding 12 gauge metal it suggests top amperage and top feed speed, this is pretty quick, do I need to learn how to weld faster? Interestingly enough, the weld fully penetrates the base material.
Reply:You'll quickly find a setting that works best for you. There is quite a bit of flexibility. The recommended settings are just starting points. I would prefer an .030" wire for 12-guage, but .025" will certainly work (at a faster feed) if it's what you've got already.Nice machine.
Reply:Chris, I'm glad your getting better results. The #'s listed are suggestions and you should have a good size range to adjust for your needs, as Mac has said.
Reply:i have a 110V lincoln 135 i like to fluxcore with..that id probably set on highest settings or next lowest settings for 12 ga, based on how it went, but with a 175 amp 220 V machine id think top settings was too much...??
