Can't set power...

Mark,

Yes, it was second hand... It looks to have been manufactured in 2010. So, it could be an '09 unit.

And like Mark said 30% on the balance, you are around 70%. Should be about the 10 o'clock area.

Mike,

Thanks for the input... Looks like that did the trick.
Got it to clean and puddle up pretty good(on Aluminum).

On the Everlast machines(particularly this one) is the Main Amperage Control ever not active? When on AC, for example?
Also, does the foot control carry variable current from 5-205 or whatever is set on the machine(on this unit)?

Regards,

Mario

This older model unit doesn't set the amps on the panel if the foot pedal is plugged in. It will if you use the torch amperage. The knob on the pedal sets max amperage.

So, to make sure I understand...

When I have the foot pedal plugged in, and the foot pedal set to 5 I will get approx. 100 amps with the "pedal to the metal"...(all the way down)?
What about the pulse current? Will it also be the same as the main amperage of 100 A(with the example above)?

Thanks,

The pulse current isn't controlled on this model. It's stays at a constant level. It's kind of funky, but in a way it offers a little better control.
