Hi guys,
have a Clarke tig150 (scratch start). Although it has no HF option, is it still possible to add/adapt it for adding a foot pedal, or at the very least a push button. I expect the answer is no, unless I get involved with modifying the elecronics inside. Simple electronic mods I can handle, but I dont want to get too involved with it to be honest.
This model has a continuouse gas feed controlled by a knob on the torch. I dont like to waste gas (and energy switching the gas on and off vie the bottle) so I am also thinking of buying a foot operated gas valve/switch to switch the gas on and off when needed. Sounds simple enough, is there anything I should take into consideration with this option that I may miss?
Cheers.
