The unit is a great unit. I have upgraded to a water cooler with a ck torch. Hardly use the non water cooled torch. Primeweld has been a fantastic company for customer service. Have been welding for over 50 years and they have been the greatest to work with.

Please watch some Welders on You Tube to get some pointers, or if possible do a course on Tig Welding, It would be beneficial, it will give you the Theory behind what you are doing so you know how to tackle welding issues. At least initially read the Handbook and try each knob and understand it's use. Nice first AC try though.

I have same machine, just wish the scale around knobs would be more accurate, it is somehow guess work to find the setting for aluminum welding. Or separate small displays for balance and frequency would be nice.

I heard someone say the rule of thumb is that each segment of the line equals about 4 of whatever that knob controls (4/8/12/16).
