(I've also posted this question on the Miller board... sorry for the
repeat - I figure that there might be folks here that are not there)
A friend of mine gave me a Lincoln Tombstone (AC-225-S) that had
been sitting in his garage for a long time and that he did not want
any more.
It needs a bit of TLC. The power cord is about 6" long, the plug is gone,
and the end looks somewhat frayed -- as if something violent
had happened to it -- rather than a nice clean cut. So I definitely
need to replace the cord, etc. Everything else looks well used, but
servicable, with no obvious problems. But I have not opened
the machine up yet.
So since I have to open the machine up to replace the power cord, I
was wondering if there are any other things to check, any hints,
tips, may-as-wells, watch-out-fors, etc that anyone has.
(I know, it's a Red machine and this is a White-n-Orange
board -- but I figure knoweldge and experience are color-blind)
Thanks in advance
Frank
