Recommended Posts

bought this from another guy on here a few weeks ago. Dont have 460v at the shop and to my understanding it was fine to work on 220, well that wasnt the case

 

Paid 1000, make me an offer, includes all you

THE 230v is the 10732, my model is the one below it, 10733 which is 460/575

 

My dads shop doesnt even have the correct wiring for it so I doubt you are going to have the correct wiring for in your garage. Might be able to get some sort of transformer to work but I got no clue man. Im just pissed now and going to ditch it and buy some brand new overpriced machine that I will prob never use

if you did not change the wires inside the plug on the welder to match the wires on your outlet, please make sure the wires on your outlet resemble mine

Look at the top of page A-1.

 

We were getting 208 at the welder. The 10733 states that it is the 460/575/1/60 model.

 

the welder is set up for 220, i dont know if you guys have a bad ground or something is mis wired, bring it to my house and plug it into my 220 outlet, if it doesnt work because there isnt enough voltage, i will pay you 100 dollars

So the main transformer inside the welder has been switched out?

 

I didnt check ground after i looked up the part number of the actual welder.

i am not sure if the internal transformer was switched or not but when i purchased it, i told them to make it work for 220 and they did.

 

since you didnt check your ground, check it now. check all your wiring, i promise you this works on 220.
