Subject: Old Hobart G3130 300 amp 6 cyl gas driven welder Author: Scott#2 [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 16:53:13 10/14/03 Tue I recently acquired an old Hobart 6 cylinder gas driven 300 amp welder but can't get any output from it. No a.c. power, no d.c. power, no welding power. I have been all over it with a volt meter and can only measure very minimal voltages from the leads coming out of the generator, and basically nothing from the 115 volt or 220 volt outlets. The 6 cyl. Crysler engine runs like a top and I would like to make the machine work again. Does anybody know of any quirks in the generator portion of this machine or any other problems that might be causing this? I have been working on the electronic throttle control (soaked in water) and it works sometimes. When I step it up to 1800 rpm, shouldn't I be able to read voltages on the recepticles or at least on the leads coming out of the gen. end? Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank You, scott#2 [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
