a clarke 135te welder?
i brought one a couple of weeks ago, i used to be a panel beater so i know how to weld however anybody had problems while welding panels and blowing holes? i've tried different combinations of settings but can't figure it out
also it came with 0.6mm steel wire which is fine but came with a co2 bottle, could that be the problem as i'm used to welding with argonshield lite?
any help please

I had the 150 version and tbh was less than impressed really,it certainly did blow holes like fuck then when I used the standard little co2 bottle.switched to pure argon and it was great,but I did swap over to a telwin mig 180 which was awesome.

I've got a 150te, had it years.
I started with CO2 and Machine Mart 0.6 wire, didn't seem too bad but did blow holes.
Changed to Argoshield, far better, then changed to decent wire as well (from BOC) and I only use small rolls otherwise it goes rusty, Way better.
The wire tends to slip on the drive wheel if you don't keep it tight.
