Excellent CC/CV power supply.
Good for GMAW, FCAW, MCAW, SMAW and lift arc DC GTAW.
Small footprint.. Inverter power supply draws less current than a transformer.
Pretty tough and robust.. Works good, lasts a long time.
Good inductance/Dig control for short circuit GMAW and open root SMAW.
Very high opinion of this power supply... Max bang for your buck.
Hello David, I second everything that Lawrence posted regarding that combination. Would only have a couple precautionary statements to add; be sure that the XMT is able to be run on the voltage that you have available(some of these machines were 460 or 575 only input voltage, not the multi-voltage types), be sure that the XMT is the CC/CV model(might be a situation where someone bought a bunch of stuff at an auction and had never set it up to run, if you "test drove" it and it welded this certainly wouldn't be the case). The 300's are first generation lead-ins to the XMT 304's and are great machines. Good luck and best regards, Allan
