Just placed the order......I hope I do not regret £350 on a welding helmet. But as they say, only one set of eyes and if you have the money I think it's a good choice.
Would it be normal practice to use a foot pedal for dc tig......I was told not as I noticed this device didn't have a foot pedal socket therefore I didn't see it as a problem. I was told a foot pedal is mainly used for aluminium which is obviously ac tig. Is this correct?
So does this mean you would not require a foot pedal, sorry this is all new to me, please can you describe the problem(s) this solves and the benefits of the Euro option - Thanks Ian
Hello All,
Just purchased a new 200 4.XL machine and looking to purchase a tig torch, I remember reading somewhere that this machine offers something special in terms of accepting a certain type of TIG torch?

I've just purchased the GYS 2004XL and cannot fault it. Only welded some car body panel, some motorcycle frame (steel) and finally some 10mm to 10mm plate (MMA) as I was wanting to give it a try on a 13a socket. Performed all perfectly, couldn't fault it. GYS service excellent as the first unit...
Hi,
Just taken delivery of a new GYS 200 4XL and notice the synergic mig setting only goes to 4mm is this correct?
Also on the mig manual setting it will only let me adjust voltage and wire speed, I'm guessing you don't set the amps?
Thanks - Ian
I literally have a stockist in the next unit to me so it's ideal, and the price quoted is comparable to the list given in this thread give or take a few pounds.....
One last thing is there a clause on the bottle purchase in terms of time stipulation?
