I bought my 215 about 3 month ago and seen at least a half a dozen videos on setup or out of the box start-ups that talked about it. Thanks for the info.
Great info, I would like to buy one of these welders one day. I Subscribed to your channel also to encourage you to make more videos. I'm an old guy that just got interested in welding and metal fabrication type projects. So knowing you have the welder I'm interested in, it would be fun to hear how you like it, and see you using it for projects. Looking forward to seeing more. I'm also hitting the notifications button. Thanks!
I just got one and knew how to change the drive roll.....I was a welder repair tech......1 thing I saw that was not clear is the .025 drive roll is not marked but it is good for .025 and .030 wire....the .035 drive roll is good for .035....They are smooth v-groove and meant for solid wire used with gas. the .035-.045 drive roll supplied is for flux core wire and is knurled.....Lincoln lists the drive rolls as Number 1-2 and 3 and I did not find a separate .030 drive roll......They could have done a better job in the manual.....
How do you like the welder? I was considering a cheaper welder, not sure if it's worth the $$$ for me and my DIY hobbies. considering one can buy one for $2000 USD and get a $400 rebate.. $1600 for this welder seems OK I suppose.
I used a 110v Lincoln for YEARS, and it did me just fine. Even thicker materials I just made several passes and beveled the joint. Kid broke an arm on the 3pt hitch on one of the tractors about 20 years ago, that repair is still going and I used the little 110 and flux core. I keep the 110 for field repairs, but in the shop I use the new one. I would say it really depends on you, and what you want. This will likely be the last welder I ever buy so I wanted it to be one with all the bells and whistles.
@ oh nice ok. I have a small flux-core welder. I’d like to get smoother welds on lighter materials, and even try TIG for smaller detail work. My other option is buying a multiprocess welder set with tig pedal and torch, half the price of this Lincoln 215 setup.
Same as my 210 mp , just different software , they under rate these Lincolns by 20 amps .I know of people that drill a hole in the back and feed 30 pound spools all day every day with these machines . Personally i use my MP for tig more than anything , just wish it had a HF start but hey ,you get what you pay for .

Nice welder. To my knowledge, that type of feed roller mechanism eliminates a birds nest.
Thanks for sharing.👍

Thanks for sharing. Just started using my new Mig215 as well but haven’t had the chance to load wire yet. This will help!

Have mine for over one year and is a no brainer. I come from a 210 PM and the roller assembly is the same, for me was not an issue at all

@@benfaubion one of the things I like about this one is it can do it all

Will it go low enough to weld body panels?
Yes, I would suggest .025 wire

Really? Several videos talked about it.
It's in the bakers gas reviews
