    Hobart Mig-Man RC150

    I recently bought this mig welder through grays online in NZ. I'm new to welding but am getting better (the wonders of Youtube!).

    But I'm trying to locate a manual, or at the very least a better understanding of the knobs. Have worked out voltage, wire feed, and a knob that 'spot' welds or tacks.

    Has anyone out there had any experience of using one?

    Cheers
    Paul

    looks like...

    pulse delay, pulse length, weld type (spot, pulse, constant), wire speed..

    And down the bottom - amperage...

    at 12 oclock, pulse lenght
    at 3 oclock spot pulse and constant
    at 6 feed speed
    at 9 delay

    at the bottom should be voltage if its a mig.

    inside the unit you should be able to reverse the connections for +/- electrode.

    Bottom one is voltage - MIG's are constant current machines.

    Thanks Dave. What does the delay switch do? I have figured out the others.
