Introduction
2.05 Description
The WeldSkill 250 and 350 MIG Power Sources are
Gas Metal Arc Welders (GMAW – commonly known
as MIG) with integrated wire feeder units. The Power
Sources are designed to meet the broad operating
needs of the modern user and meet the requirements
of Australian Standard AS 60974.1 and International
Standard IEC 60974-1.
The WeldSkill 250 and 350 MIG Power Sources pro-
vide excellent performance on mild steel, stainless
steel, aluminium, silicon bronze and some hard facing
wires with Argon based shielding gases. These Power
Sources also provide excellent results on mild steel
using Carbon Dioxide shielding gas.
The WeldSkill 250 and 350 MIG Power Sources are
supplied as complete packages that are ready to
weld (not including shielding gas, electrode wire
and Hiderok™ welding helmet). The units can also
be fitted with an optional remote wirefeeder which
provides portability when welding in positions with
limited access. The instructions in this manual detail
how to correctly set up these machines and provide
guidelines on gaining the best production efficiency
from the power source. Please read this manual
thoroughly before using your welder.
