will the 140 handler run .035 flux core wire ? or just .030. thanks tim

Yes it will, I have never had a need to do it yet but it is designed to run either.

it can run .030 and .035 welding wire so long as the coordinating "tip" is in place on the mig gun. I found my best results were using Lincoln NR-211MP .035" wire with a .035" copper tip in place on the mig gun. Both available at your local Home Depot and in-stock normally.

Adam (anyone)....did this work for you? My blower resistor has 7 wires in the original harness plus the two connecting wires to the blower (2094 TB XLS). THANKS!

I have a 140 with a 9.9, the way its installed I dont think it gets a lot of stress regardless of seize. I hope you can make it work!

Richard, what you ask is a logical question... since 12/2 (or as 'they' call it 12/3) wire is `supposed' to be able to carry a 20 amp load. Perhaps it's because the wire used in the cord is "stranded" instead of solid core (as is 12/2 romex), or it could be because of the plugs used (since 12 gauge stranded/solid is 'supposed' to carry the same ampacity). Anyways, I believe it's a question best suited to be answered by the manufacturer instead of me. All I can vouch for is that I have put a higher load on it than the 15 amp listed, and the wire or plugs never got hot (or even warm), and the breaker never popped off.

I have the single page installation and maintenance manual in front of me here. There is a warning on the front page of this manual that states the model KBP2406 can operate on 208 VAC. According to the warning there will be 25% less wattage draw and 13% less Amps. It comes shipped from the factory configured for maximum wattage which is 5700 watts at 240 VAC. At 208 VAC that would be reduced to 4275 watts and one would still need to feed using #10 wire size. Fed with 240 VAC the possible configurations are: 5700, 4750, 3800, 2850, and 1900 watts. The 3800 watt configuration specifies #12 wire minimum. Above 3800 watts specifies #10 wire and below 3800 watts specifies #14 wire. My setup plugs into a welder outlet in the garage. Additional parts are required and for my application the following additional parts were purchased: Feed wire; #10 SOOW-C3. (I'm using 24 feet and the heater is working fine with that.), Winged(1 Pkg)wire nuts: Commercial Electric 498-378., 3/4" Strain Relief: Halex ACC #21694., (this strain relief/clamp Pkg didn't come with an electrical locknut, consider using one if possible) Wall Plug: Leviton 275-T configured for 30 Amps for my application. (Matched to wall outlet) The heater has pigtails inside that are prestripped so it's a simple matter of using wire nuts to make the mains and ground connections inside the heater. The most difficult part is punching out the 3/4" knock out blank in the back of the heater. I resorted to backing one side with a wrench socket and working the knock out side to side. There are 2 knockouts; one is 3/4" and the other is 1/2". For #10 wire size one must utilize the 3/4" knockout. In summary, then, yes you can connect this heater to 208 VAC. I would just like to reiterate how impressed I am with how well this heater performs. We will never be without one ever again!

No. 120. It was identical to the problem one that came with my camper......it kept kicking the breakers out time after time. I installed the WFCO and matched it up wire for wire and I HAVEN'T HAD A SINGLE PROBLEM WITH IT SINCE. Unlike the one that came with my StarCraft, it is a good, reliable converter. Highly recommended! Hope that helps.

It'll run any size wire you can get a contact tip for. I use .035 that's the biggest ideal size. The gun plugged in no problem and was of extremely great quality you shouldn't have anything to worry about I would definitely buy one again

Yep, it's hot, so PLEASE BE CAREFUL! The other thing I noticed, and it's a minor issue, is that the spool is not the "standard" size, so flux core that you get from Home Depot or Lowe's won't fit right out of the box, but with some sandpaper and a round file, it's an easy 5 minute fix.

no its only for flux core and make sure you have a 60 amp or bigger breaker to operate it

Dear Dale, what is the current rating of the fan? the converter can supply 3A maximum. Beware that you cannot exceed the input voltage (40V). 36 VDC is fine if the source doesn't generate spikes above 40V. A 12 gauge wire is massive, much more than you need for the 3A this converter can supply. Again, I have no idea if it is enough for your fan. Regards, Jorge

This coil draws a lot of power, not sure. Msd has great support I would ask them directly

No you will only use flux core wire if you are welding outdoor because windy conditions where it will make it hard to use shielding gas, or if you aren't using gas.

I used standard 14 gauge house wire from the panel to the controller and from the controller to the battery. This is ok, because there isn't alot of amps (raw power) being pushed from the panel. With 12v systems, the more raw power (amps) being used, the thicker the wire needed. You can even use regular copper twist wire, just don't go smaller then the wire the panel uses.. which I think is either 14 or 16 gauge.

Kind of, the knob goes from 1 to 5, and you can figure out what 1/5 of 40 watts is. It's not exactly precise, but it is adjustable. The tip is a little big for printed circuit boards, but if you use flux it should be okay. You can also get a smaller tip separately. Good luck with your project.

Works just fine on mine. it's just a wire splice, so as long as your wire gauge isn't too big, you'll be fine. And I think I have 14 gauge wire, the biggest there generally is.

The machine could probably run the 030 fluxcore, though I haven't tried it. The stock drive roller will run 025, 030, 035 wire. I believe that there is no mention of it because it was not to common a wire. I do recall that the smallest innershield lincoln use to make was .035 nr211 wire.I suppose that 030 flux cored wire could possibly be to thin and brittle for the stock gun liner.... Mig wire bends, but fluxcore tends to snap in my experience. Give Eastwood a call and ask. They have a solid and knowledgeable customer care staff (based in the USA too!).
