I'm tired of fighting to straighten out parts and press out bearings, so I'm pretty excited to pick one of these up after work toady! I wish I could afford a 50ton but I think this 30 will do just fine.

Lol, it's 5 cents cheaper at KMS.
I see about the compressor breaker so i cant run another double 15. What can i do now. Is there a single breaker that can handle the welder 220? Or do i call an electrician and start from scratch. //uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200522/4b24e69d2cf975990700c30aa9a81ba6.jpg

-Wire your welding plug with # 10 on a 2 pole 30 maximum.
- should be ok, but maxed out with plasma and compressor running. Your helpers can’t be using a chop saw etc. While both running.
-don’t run the compressor when welding heavy material with your settings cranked. Or wait till it’s full. Lighter metals should be ok.
-The 40 amp breaker feeding your garage can legally be change out to a 50 if you confirm your wire feeding the garage is #8 or larger.
Thanks I sent you a pm-Wire your welding plug with # 10 on a 2 pole 30 maximum.
