These are the cadallics of welding structural and pipe of course there are different models with more amperage and volts depending if your running stick or .072 232 or bigger seismic wire all preference whether it's a Lincoln,miller,airco or Hobart I prefer Lincoln welders 37 years in the structuralwelding and fabrication great looking machine keep our craft alive men
The right dial fine adjusts the current not the voltage. If you had it set on 150 and 100 on the right dial you would get 150 amps. If you dial it down to 0 you will get 100 amps the high end of the range just below. The same with all the other ranges.
@greasezert2228 The voltage IS actually adjusted by the fine current adjustment. The lower the fine current knob the lower the voltage and more dig. Higher gear lower fine current equals aggressive arc. Lower gear higher fine current equals a softer arc with higher voltage and less dig. Travis field has videos all about this and I’ve owned and worked several of them myself so yes I know what I’m talking about
@@pl747 I feel ignorant now I will do more research into this, thank you for correcting me I always was told the fine current was like the arc force adjustment basically on these machines. I know it changes the amperage within the range but the one fella I bought 2 machines from was always telling me to run a higher range with lower fine current for my root then bump it down a gear range and turn up my fine current dial to have a softer arc. Anyways tho, thanks I’m not too stubborn to learn something new even when I thought I was right but proven wrong
@greasezert2228 Agreed on the upper range. But, since the fine adjustment dial goes down to 10 (%) rather than 0, when the left dial is at 150A and the right dial is turned all the way down to 10, the welding amperage would be a bit ABOVE 100 amps. Assuming the taps of the left dial are incremented by 50A, the welding amperage would then be 100A + 10% of 50A = 100A + 5A = 105A (give or take).
