Oxford Migmaker settings/user guide

[31matt]

I have recently bought a secondhand Oxford Migmaker 240-1 and have (almost) got it to a setup which I am happy with on 1mm mild steel plate.

I was wondering whether anyone has a copy of the manual with detail of the 2 setting dials, or could briefly explain them to me?

There is a fine and course. If you have this one

The right hand switch has 3 coarse settings, the left is fine settings

So 1 on the right and one on the left is lowest...20 amps ishh though the steps are voltage.
1-2 is next 1-3, 1-4 etc
Then 2-1, 2-2 etc
Highest is 3-4 or how ever many fine steps there is.

The book isnt up to much, doesnt even go into that level of detail.

Sorry, I can't give to much help on 1mm sheet but I will say it is a lovely machine to use. Do you know what wire thickness you are using

 

[31matt]

Yes that's the one. That makes sense thankyou, although it would seem more logical to have the dials switched around - coarse on the left?!

Using 0.8mm wire which from what I have read is a good compromise for a range of welding.

Thanks

Yep 0.8 is probably spot on for that
