Craftsman commercial 295 amp welder model 113201530

I was given this craftsman commercial 295 amp welder model 113201530. They no longer make this machine and I cannot locate a manual for it. Does any one know any thing about it?

Hi Annie,
Welcome to the Original AWS Welding Forum.
The only thing I could find is a parts manual.

Don't know anything about Craftsman welding machines.

Quite likely made by Century, which is now owned by Lincoln. Try there.

Manual still available free from Sears, but hurry before they go out of business!

(Manual is mainly a welding "How-To", dating back to the twin-carbon-arc era, but this is about all you need with these old transformers. Will probably last forever!

You will need a good 220 service, to fully use it, since it draws 60 amps wide open.
