Lets starts off by saying i was a bit aggravated about the pre-order stuff, paid in early December 2012. Then when i received the machine the box and machine was destroyed.

EVERLAST did a awesome job of getting me return postage and getting me a new machine ASAP! The shipping damage wasn't their fault (UPS is horrible), but they took care of the situation without me having to deal the the shippers. So I would like to give them props on my first dealings with their customer service team!

PS: The regulator is not working, so i had to use my own regulator for the test. Also i dont have a water cooler hooked up, so i just used the air-cooled WP9 25' torch i ordered with my machine. Come to find out the aircooled torch didnt come with the 9mm quick lock fitting for the argon connection on the front of the machine. Im going to see if they can send me a fitting and a clamp later today. So with said, i had to bypass the machine and hook the torch directly to the bottle so after my welds i had to turn reg off every time (annoying)

So after all the delays and shipping issues, i finally got the new welder in yesterday and tested the machine

Enough Talk - Heres the pictures...

First welds with the machine, very smooth!

Some are with pedal, some are with torch switch, some with no pulse, some with pulse.

I didn't really have the size filler wire i wanted/needed, so the welds could have looked better with the right stuff

Haven't tried AC yet, waiting to build the water cooler, then ill hook up the water cooled torch and do some testing

Very please with machine so far!

THANKS EVERLAST!!!
