today i was welding some 2o mm plate with tenacito 38r when i was engulfed in some terrble stinking smoke ,it was belching out the welder , i immediately unplugged it and put it outside ,
fearing the worst i took it apart tonight and llo and behold 2 of the smoothing capacitors had destructed and were oozing a dark and evil smelling goo all over the board i replaced all3
i mooched about and found my magneto ones were a suitable replacement -250- 400v ac 22uf rima
out with the soldering bolt and 30mins later machine eas good as new
hookedup to a newarc hf unit im convinced this has got to be the ultimate tig dc set up cab be set up to
bounce up down on 2t not like a pre programmed one its 30 years old s.mooth as an,d burns 6010 easy its the best and has an audible song to match every movement of your hand , allin all a machine that connects your hand to your ears a great interaction i would say
