I have a Lincoln 135 PRO MIG Welder... It welds fine for a few minutes then the feeder switch stops working....I wait a few minutes and it starts again..as if it had to cool down.
Weld 2 minutes...wait 2 minutes...weld 2..etc....
I am welding 1/4 plate steel...any ideas?
1/4" plate with a 135 amp machine is probably beyond it's duty cycle abilites. If you are using a mixed gas, and pushing the max on the settings, it will be cutting out because it is designed to.
You might want to get a higher amperage welder for consistent welding of 1/4"
The 140 Pro maxes out at 5/16" using inner shield wire. and 1/8", or 10 guage with gas.
