Well I finally bit the bullet and made a purchase. Its a 1990 if I decoded it correctly at Bills Welder Repair site. SAE 350, 3 cylinder Deutz aircooled diesel. This thing welds awesome! And what surprised me the most about the machine is that it barely idles up when I strike an arc. Really quite, although when It was cold this morning it was a little rattlie but once she warmed up she smoothed right out. Oh yeah I picked it up for 1200 bucks. And does anyone know the approximate weight of it? We picked it up off the trailer with an 853 Bobcat and had the rear tires off the ground!! lol Any way enough rambling and on to the pictures.
