Hello all.
New to the forum and tig welding, hope you don't mind me jumping in with a question or two.

I have recently acquired a Green 3k Freeman 160 tig welder. I don't have a tig torch at the moment just stick holder.
Does anyone know where i can get hold of a manual for this machine?

A question about the machine...
On the row of led's i have, from top.
Power.
MMA.
Tig.
HF.
When I turn the mode knob it switches between MMA and tig but not HF.
Does it need to have a torch or pedal plugged in to the 7pin socket for it to allow selection of HF. That's my assumption at least.

Thanks and sorry for a long start.

Does the mode switch move one position more on the opposite side of the HF position? If it does, it could be that the switch has slipped round.

Maybe the HF LED only comes on when HF activated, e.g. trigger pulled?

.... and welcome to the forum.

Hello Voipio and Robotstar5
Thanks for the welcome and the help.
The mode dial is a stopless type, you can turn it continuously in either direction and it cycles through the options, which at the moment are just the two.
I assume when plugging a torch or pedal in it will allow the hf option but don't want to buy either until i know it works and need one to find out.
catch 22.
