Hi, just got a Clarke 130EN to weld a couple of panels onto my Beetle.
Many years ago I did a welding course and in previous jobs I've used mig welders but I'm as rusty as my bug and the 130 came without instructions, have asked Clarke for some but want to get cracking.
I'm using 0.6 wire Argon/CO2 mix in a disposable (untill I can afford £150 for a full size bottle & reg)
So question is
What settings to start with, I have button marked 1 & 2 , Min & Max
Wire speed 1-8?? and regulator 1 to 6
The panels Im welding on are the rear bumper hangers so nothing majorly structural to start with
Regards chris
