Hi everyone, Ive just been given a welder, a Sealey Turbo Mig welder and a bottle of CO2. The bottle's full and the welders got a full reel of wire on it but unfortuantely ive never welded with MIG in my life (Ive done arc welding).
Well, I turned it on, turned on the gas and hooked the earth up. I pressed the button on the handle (the thing you hold) and the wire came out the end so thats a good sign its working, I could also hear the Oxygen coming out but how does it weld, do you light the tip?
Sorry about the long drawn out story but I am a complete newbie when it comes to this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
