The Millermatic 255 pulse MIG welder is a user - friendly machine that boosts efficiency and productivity for light manufacturing and fabrication. It features a color screen with Auto - Set Elite and Pulsed MIG. This all - in - one welder works with 208 or 240 volt input power. It can weld up to 1/2' aluminum, stainless, and mild steel.
The 7 - inch color LCD display simplifies machine setup and parameter selection, cutting setup time and increasing welding time. Pulsed MIG welding offers high - quality results with lower heat input, reducing distortion on thin materials and spatter, which means less post - weld grinding and rework. Auto - Set Elite provides predefined weld settings for welders of all skill levels.
The program mode lets you save and recall your favorite weld settings easily, ensuring consistent quality and more productivity. Auto - Line Technology allows for any single - phase input voltage hookup (208 - 240 V) without manual linking, making it portable and reliable. It's a great solution for unreliable power.
This welder is versatile, capable of MIG, pulsed MIG, and flux - cored welding. It weighs only 84 lb, over 50% lighter than the Millermatic 252. The optional EZ - Latch running gear makes it easy to load and unload the machine. The Millermatic 255 can operate at full output when powered by generators with 12000 Watt (12K) output or higher.
Included with the product are the Millermatic 255 with a 10 ft. (3 m) power cord, a 15 ft. (4.5 m) 250 - amp MDX™ - 250 MIG gun, a 10 ft. (3 m) work cable and clamp, a flow gauge regulator and gas hose, extra contact tips, reversible drive rolls, a chain for the gas cylinder, a material thickness gauge, and EZ - Latch™ Running Gear.
Using the Millermatic 255 Welder is a breeze. First, connect it to a 208 - 240 volt power source. You don't have to worry about manual linking thanks to the Auto - Line Technology. If you're using a generator, make sure it has an output of 12000 Watt or higher for full output.
For setup, use the 7 - inch color LCD display. It'll help you select the right parameters easily. You can also use the Auto - Set Elite feature, which gives you predefined settings for different jobs.
When welding, choose from MIG, pulsed MIG, or flux - cored welding depending on your needs. Pulsed MIG is great for thin materials as it reduces distortion and spatter.
To move the machine around, you can use the optional EZ - Latch running gear. Just loosen the latch retaining knob and rotate the latches to disengage the machine.
For maintenance, keep the machine clean. Check the contact tips regularly and replace them when they're worn out. Also, make sure the drive rolls are in good condition. If you're using a gas cylinder, use the chain to secure it properly. When not in use, store the machine in a dry place.
