Hi
I'm new to welding, tried in my younger years (some 30 years ago) on motorbikes and gave up... Now I have the time I thought I'd try my hand at learning to do it properly (or at least get better at it...)
I have the above mentioned MIG Gas welder (MightyMig 130XT), I got it second hand without any instructions etc.....
I had to buy a few bits to get it to a working state but now I can use it I realise that I don't know what all the settings do.
I have contacted Sealey and have downloaded the manual for it which contains nothing about the controls on the front, I also have the parts list too in the hope that it tells you the name of the controls... Just to give me a clue as to what they are used for....
Does anyone know what they all do? Or have tried and tested settings for different welds.....
Some are obvious like the wire speed dial but the others don't seem to very intuative...
Can anyone help?
Many thanks
