The Hobart IronMan 240 MIG Welder is a heavy - duty wire feed welding machine that offers professional results with excellent arc quality. It operates on 240V input power and can weld mild steel up to 1/2'. It's also spool gun ready for aluminum welding. With a 200 - Amp output at 60% duty cycle and a wide amperage range, it boosts productivity by allowing longer welding periods. It's suitable for MIG, flux - cored, gas, or gasless welding. The welder provides a smooth and stable arc on all thicknesses, with an output of up to 280A. The run - in technology ensures smooth, spatter - free starts by automatically adjusting the wire feed speed before arc initiation. The infinite voltage and wire speed control simplify adjustments, improving arc performance and bead appearance while reducing spatter and cleanup. Setting up for aluminum welding with the SpoolRunner 200 is easy, no additional interface needed. The reversible drive rolls with two grooves for two wire sizes on one roll cut down on spare parts, changeover time, and costs. The hinged feeder panel gives better access for spool and feed roll changes, increasing productivity. The fan - on - demand feature reduces power consumption and contamination by running the cooling system as required. Note: The machine is on backorder. Email us for ETA or other options. The product comes with a 15' 200A MIG welding gun, a weld and setup information chart, a regulator/flow gauge, a 5' gas hose, a primary input cable with plug, a dual - groove drive roll (.030/.035'), a 10' work cable with clamp, .030' and .035' contact tips, and a built - in running gear/cylinder rack.

Using the Hobart IronMan 240 MIG Welder is quite straightforward. First, make sure it's connected to a 240V power source. Select the appropriate amperage according to the thickness of the metal you're welding. You can use it for different types of welding like MIG, flux - cored, gas, or gasless. For aluminum welding, just connect the SpoolRunner 200 without any extra interface. When starting the weld, the run - in technology will help for a smooth start. Adjust the voltage and wire speed as needed to get the best arc performance and bead appearance. Remember, the machine is on backorder, so check with us for the estimated time of arrival or other options. For maintenance, keep the machine clean and make sure the cooling system can work properly. The fan - on - demand feature will take care of most of the cooling, but you still need to ensure there's no blockage. Also, regularly check the drive rolls and replace them if they show signs of wear. When changing wire sizes, use the reversible drive rolls to save time and money on spare parts. And always refer to the included weld, setup, and parts information chart for more detailed instructions.
