Update.. after 2 weeks and an email a day the only help I got was a picture of a finger pointing at a connector to check... When I asked them what to check with a meter or am I just verifying it was plugged in they replied "we have reviewed the video you sent us again and it's broken and can't be repaired, sorry.". Basically they just want to string you along until you get tired and give up. So now I have a paperweight.
A few things, when you shut off your gas bottle, let the gas in the line out also. Keeping pressure on the flow meter will make the seals inside it wear out quicker. Also when your Tig welding hold it longer at the start. Make sure that your puddle of molten metal is there and following the lead on the tungsten. Also slow down when Tig welding. The reason you had all the holes, porosity, is because you was moving it too fast and it was coming out of the shielding gas before it was able to solidify.
I'm not sponsored by them or anything but they are having a 20% off sale right now till end of month and it's a great time to buy a welder or plasma cutter. Just picked up a plasma cutter myself to match. Will do a video when it arrives. And many more to come when I get a real camera setup! Thank you all for following my journey
Hello Thank you for sharing such valuable information. Do you have any suggestions for lowering the amperage to less than 80 amps. when welding with flux core 0.35 mm? This is to be able to weld thinner materials. Greetings.
FYI, Pleas don't weld or grind around a compressor like that. Please remember that is high pressure in that compressor. FYI Explosion /fire pyramid............., high pressure...... oxygen, fuel (gasoline), and a spark under compression or extreme force could equal shrapnel.
When setting the mag setting to .035 wire on my machine the material thickness will only go to 2.9 mm max? Also my amperage will max out at 166 amps on the screen. Is this normal? If I go to .023 wire size the material thickness will go all the way up to 13.7mm. But still max is 166amps. I am only testing out on 120v. Think that’s why? So if I get my shop setup with 220v think it will change the screen setting appropriately
Some people do things different but you can try to strike an ark then move the tig torch say 1/8 inch then stop moving for 1 second then move again then stop keep doing that . So its strike ark then move 1/8 then stop then move keep doing that it is more easy for me to do it that way then continues moving the tig torch. You should get little ripples the way I do it if you want a continues weld with no ripples then practice the steady moving.
Mine came with knurled drive roller with a .8 ( .030) side and a .9 (.035) side. So you shouldn't have any issue running .030 flux core. However I believe the older version of this machine came with a .6( .023) knurled drive roller in place of the .8 side. But yes welder has knurled drive roller for .030 you can order from their website if you have the version that didn't come with one.
@@gregmaggert8561 I had to shorten the dinse connector on my 35-70 tig torch. I'm making an arc disconnect with a battery isolator w/foot pedal for lift tig. Not sure if i want to tap power from inside the machine or use external power supply with a ryobi battery and a step down buck converter.
@@toycoma98 I have noticed when buying 35 70 connectors from different manufacturers they end up being different lengths, even different in size due to poor production or mislabeled supply's. As far as the foot pedal arc stop, I've been wanting one myself but don't know too much about making one at the moment. Let me know how your turns out!
Hello thank you for your video it help but I do have a question if you can offer your time to answer I will be grateful my issues is not getting to weld the machine runs i am using the mig gasless settings and when i try to make contact with the metal nothing is happening and the clap is connected and on the metal too just want to know your thoughts what might be the issues why it's not working
Have you had any problems with your mig? Mine worked fine the first couple of times I tried it when I got it... tried using it again last night and it won’t strike an arc
Hey bud thanks for the video. I'm definitely not trying to be a killjoy here but please chain that bottle to the wall or something. They are deadly when they fall over and knock the valve off.

My steel was crap to start but yeah I have a long way to go. Thanks for the input
Get yourself a pair of welding pliers.

Gotta start somewhere 😂

Can you weld .030 Flux core on 120v ? Machine only allows .035 Flux selection gasless.

Hello, thanks for confirming a 35-70 fits the machine. Do you like the machine so far? I'm thinking of getting one.
I like it alot. I haven't had any issues with it. Other than it being a minimum 80 amp on mig flux core setting.

Does it have the ability to add a foot pedal? Looked at the pictures on the site but couldn't see anywhere it could connect from
From what I've seen on different reviews the tig is lift/scratch start only. The torch is always live.
It is only scratch start tig unfortunately. But they are on sale right now with the new model being ac dc tig for under 700$
I would like to know which Tig torch to get. Any suggestions are well appreciate. Thank in advance.✌🏼
Watch my other videos. They have all the details for picking one up
I suggest not welding next to your plastic gasoline can.

Make sure your ground is to positive. Electrons flow from the gun (negative) to the piece being welded, the positive.
Wow great video. 5 stars.
Would you pick the yes welder over the titanium unlimited 200?
What do you think of the yeswelder 200 amp stick welder.
Have you had any problems with your mig? Mine worked fine the first couple of times I tried it when I got it... tried using it again last night and it won’t strike an arc
Интересный аппарат, узнать бы побольше про него.
Hey bud thanks for the video. I'm definitely not trying to be a killjoy here but please chain that bottle to the wall or something. They are deadly when they fall over and knock the valve off.
hahaha, true, thats why welding supply stores don't allow bottles inside the store, they are like missiles and will tear a shop to splinters.
Could you also post a link to your Tig gun please?
Search mundaka.technologiesmundaka.technologies on ebay.
U said it can’t do aluminum ?
Unfortunately that's the one thing it can't weld.
What accessories did it come with from the box?
Where did you get the tank for that price?
It was a local welding shop in Louisiana. If you local contact me
Next time do a video without music, will be a better item or product review.
60-75 amps should have been sufficient enough.
Why won’t it do aluminum?
You need ac to do aluminum.
Not sure what you mean by that? Where did you buy your tig torch?
@@jser4822 for steel you run DC current to weld, but for aluminum you need AC current, this welder only welds with DC.

Without ac your not getting aluminum. You can weld aluminum without ac but it doesn't have much cleaning action.
