® Stickmate LX 235 AC/160 DC 211809 June 2012 AC/DC Stick (SMAW) Arc Welding Power Source 230 Volt he Stickmate LX 235 AC/160 DC power sources let you choose between AC or DC weld output to expand your welding options to either AC or DC Stick electrodes. DC output means fewer arc outages, less sticking, less spatter, better control on thin work, and easier out-of-position welding. AC output produces less arc blow and easier starts. T Accu-Set™ design provides accurate heat control with infinite amperage control. This Stick welder also allows a higher duty cycle when amperages decrease to give you more arc time when welding thinner materials. Applications: Farms Ranches Ornamental Iron Garages #500421 Includes: 15-ft. (4.5 m) electrode cable with heavy-duty holder 10-ft. (3 m) work cable with clamp 5-ft. (1.5 m) power cord with plug Hobbyists Maintenance Individuals Features Benefits Accu-Set™ amperage indicator Accu-Set is an exclusive design for accurately controlling amperage or heat output. As you turn the Accu-Set™ control, the indicator more clearly shows the amperage setting. Infinite current control The precise control of the Stickmate LX 235 AC/160 DC allows the operator to adjust output by as little as 1-amp increments. Users can always get the exact heat they need, unlike the step control design on competitive products. Output selector switch Allows you to quickly select AC, DCEP or DCEN without adjusting the output leads. High 100% duty cycle rating 100 amps AC/65 amps DC. High DC weld output Up to 150 amps available at 20% duty cycle. The Stickmate LX 235 AC/160 DC model has 20% more DC output than competitive products. Two AC output ranges With two AC ranges to select from, you have greater control of weld performance. Fully varnished magnetic coils Varnish protects and lengthens the life of the coils inside for increased reliability. Forced-draft cooling fan The cooling fan runs continuously and helps to extend the life of the power source. Hobart’s 5/3/1 Warranty Five-year warranty on transformers, stabilizers and generators; three years on electronics (drive motors, rectifiers); and one year on guns.
