Switch attached to the magneto is to ground it out and thus turn of the machine, other little electrical box was likely for a tattletale switch. Which is basically a shutdown switch for lack of oil pressure or excess coolant temp
Thx for the reply and you are right it is a shut off switch. The other one is a voltage regulator. A buddy of mine was over who has worked on these quite a bit went through it with me
I’d look into a bw parts auto idle kit with pc board those original r57 idlers to weld i had to pin mine into high idle that auto idle solenoid is a great up grade

Hey man you should get a hold of Bill's welder repair in Oklahoma they can tell you anything about those 200s
Little far but good to know
$79 Canadian = $2 US wow that is quite the exchange rate...
Obviously I am kidding but yah I pretty much had this given to me lol
What size socket do I need to remove armature nut
Don’t know it was a big one
Where did you order your parts from?
BWParts.com I am pretty sure
Can you do more videos on this machine
You bet I could do an update of where I am at with it for sure... anything in particular your interested in?
@@CJs_DIY Any other mechanical work done to the welder or trailer I’d be interested in watching
what is the cause that does not weld I have the same problem
It could be a few things but the first try test should be to excite the coils.
