From what I understand duty cycle changes as the demand on the machine does.
Also wondering if the duty cycle parameters are calibrated at the manufacture under the familiar standard of 10 Min @40 deg??

I can't seem to find any info beyond the 35%@ 250 amps in the Manual for the PP256???

Waiting for My own PP256 .. according to Fed Ex's estimate, it should be here tomorrow.

Duty cycle is @ 10 minutes.

I would also love to see a duty cycle graph for the PP256. Some of the machines list what the duty cycle is at max output and what the output is where it crosses 100%. The 256 definitely has low duty compared to the 205, in some areas, but I have no idea of what the graph looks like. Perhaps the manual shipped with the unit has some of that info. I hear the translations in it are weak, but there might be more info than the online versions. If anyone from Everlast can fill in these details, that would be great.

Guys, I already answered this question. 60%@200, 100%@160...No one reads the threads anymore?

Sorry. I keep having the same issue with searching where "256" is too short a keyword and is always dropped. And there are so many variation of how people enter machine names, PowerPro256, PowerPro 256,Power Pro 256, PP256, etc. Too bad the search can't use regular expressions. Or because of the machine names, it would be really nice if someone would tweak the forum to allow search of three letter words. ;)
