Here is a quick review of the Vulcan 220 Omnipro with aluminum spool gun and Vulcan welding cart.
First
The pictures are deceiving when at there website. What they fail to show is all the machines with power cord, guns, ground attatched.

I set my Lincoln 175HD and the Vulcan 220 on the cart with all cables and such installed. There the cables interfere getting into drawers and side cabinet.




I even reversed them which was a little better but still have to deal with gas and power cables.
One thing to keep in mind with multiple wire feeder on this cart is getting into the side to service wire area the lids fold up on most wire welders.
Conclusion
I like the mobility of the cart and storage areas. It is well built and would work great for a single welder setup.
I am going to do quite a few modifications to the cart so I can work it properly.
Vulcan welder performed great with mig, stick, tig and aluminum spool gun. For the price on this multi process welder I would by again.
Stay tuned for cart mods.

 

Hell yes! Burning some metal!

 

Good afternoon sir

No sparin' the rod there.

 

Have you looked into solar or wind options?

 

Not really. Wind would be great up here

 

It’s worth looking into, them little windmills are loud tho sounds like a massive swarm of skeeters.

 

I see them all around. I will look into it I am scared of the solar as we get hail quite often

 

Looks great, like I mentioned glanced at it last night will look at it some more tonight while I’m there.

 

Someone’s been busy! Looks awesome Mr. Maner!

 

I planned for this house to have a generator when I had the house built. Wiring for the house and fall switch was $4000.00 and the Generator was $7000.00. I have had zero problems with it in 17 years. every 80 hours of run time it will throw a code to change the spark plugs. (because natural gas is so dirty) other than that I just change the oil every year. Only had to replace the battery one time.
NOTE: it is not strong enough to run my central air in the summer, but my ceiling fans are good enough until the power comes back on.

 

What kind is it

 

It is an Onan 1200, with a 24 HP Honda engine.

 

Looks good! I do understand about the cart and cords. I’ve got to get one of those welders as soon as harvest is over.

 

Anyone awake that knows about these



, just cleaning it and do I need to oil it. I have a reusable K&N in now but I was gonna swap it out with this AFE one. I need to clean it though. Should I just use soap and hot water or use my K&N air filter cleaner?

 

Here’s a link to a thread that should help
