bit cold mate, i would use that sort of juice on a 3.2 rod. all welders are slightly different and run different juice some hotter then others.
are you a coded welder ?
No i'm not coded, but i've got tickets and done weldin since i was 14 years old.
i usually don't use ampage as the bible, as machines differ to each other, and the genny welders we have have not got ampage display, all done on throttle,
so i usually go by feel, start off a set amount, then adjust when needed
next time i'm out on site stick weldin, i'll take out the invertor set and see wot i run on 4mm vertical, but i know for sure its not 140 amps.
