Hello Everyone, I recently bought an R-Tech Mig/MMA unit and have been teaching myself how to blow holes in things, am getting quite good :-) but I have to store my welder in my house and I have to do my welding outside so have a 20-30 min set-up time, add the clear up time and this is really grinding my gears and restricing my practice to 1 - 2 or 3 hour session a week on a Sat when it's not too cold......with the evening light becoming more favourable I want to store my welder in my shed so I can just turn it on at short notice and go, my question is this: Can I leave my wire in the machine, with the gas attached, earth lead attached, with the Mig torch attached (so I don't have to wind back x meters of wire each time) and with the MMA lead attached - and then just turn the machine on, choose between Mig/MMA (simple switch) and go, gas will be turned on and off via regulator and bottle when needed?
Cheers, Rob
