R-Tech 180 Base Settings

[the_big_1]

Hi Guys,

Well I took the dive and purchased a R-Tech 180 Inverter Mig.
Just need to sort gas out now.
Knowing R-Tech don't give any idea of settings for material etc, I wondered if any of you guys had any ideas of base settings I could start off at, then dial in as I go etc.

Looking to weld:

2mm box section
3mm plate


Cheers!

If you have smart phone Miller do an app.

I generally use these as a quick starting point and tweak from there.

The above is a chart I worked out for my Rtech 180
Plus this I copied from the web.

One day I will get to put them both in a spreadsheet and print off.

Then I have starting points, but to be honest I switch on and play with scrap of similar first, keep thinking the above will speed me up as I am not using the welder everyday every week, more like on the odd occasion.
