Hobart Beta Mig 251

[Big Nate]

Another Ebay score, was looking for a 175 miller but couldnt pass this up so bid on it and won the auction $500.00, cheaper then a 175 miller and has more power to boot The lady said that it had a new 15 foot Abicor Alpha Series Air-cooled Mig Gun and 1/2 a 33# spool of 0.30 left.

Anybody know the duty cycle on this machine? I am still waiting for it to come in @ the local forward air so I can't run out and look and also the weight ( I gotta unload it out of a lifted 4x4 )

Look at the Hobart Iron Man 250 it is very close to this design. I would say it has a 60% duty cycle and it will weld up to 1/2 in a single pass. As for the weight I would be around 180 LBS. It is a 230 volt single pase unit and has about a 40 amp input rating.
Thanks

You should be able to order a owner's manual for it from Hobart.
