Advantage Lincoln
Superior Arc Performance:
Exclusive Diamond Core Technology™ delivers an outstanding arc
you notice immediately compared to competitive models: – Great arc starts make getting started easy. – Wide voltage ‘sweet spot’ gives you a very forgiving arc, so setting
controls is a snap. – Extremely low spatter reduces clean-up. – Outstanding aluminum & stainless performance, not just mild
steel.
Wide 30 – 180 amp welding output range is the highest output in its
class – use .025" wire on the thinnest sheet metal up to .045" flux­cored wire for thick plate.
MIG weld 24 gauge up through 3/16" sheet metal in a single pass.
Weld up to 1/2" steel using self-shielded Lincoln (FCAW-S).
Professional Features:
Industrial Cast Aluminum Drive features:
– Dual gear-driven drive rolls for positive traction. – Patented split wire guides for optimal wire alignment. – Brass-to-Brass gun connections for enhanced connectivity. – Large industrial closed-design drive motor for improved torque
and trouble-free performance.

Spool Gun Ready – add the optional Magnum
100SG spool gun for reliable operation at the high wire feed speeds aluminum welding demands. No expensive outboard modules required.
No Hassle Tool-less Design – for wire spool mounting, wire drive
service and polarity changes.
Get More, Do More – Start out with more contact tips, nozzles, drive
rolls and wire electrode for MIG or flux-cored welding.
Innovative contact tip, drive roll and nozzle storage keeps all your
consumables close at hand.
Electrically ‘cold’ electrode provides an added measure of operator
safety.
Superb Quality:
Patent-pending Power Chassis™ channels airflow to cool power
systems, structurally secures key components and traps wires and cables to avoid unnecessary abrasion.
Toughest PC Board Protection in the industry – ‘Potted’ to seal sen-
sitive components from the environment, ‘trayed’ in a tough plastic tray to add rigidity and shock resistance.
• Three-year Lincoln warranty. Two-year extended warranty available – (U.S. and Canada only).
