A while back I bought a like-new Speedway 100 amp Arch Welder from a member here. Seller admitted he didn't know much about it up front and I bought it anyway, so no harm no foul in that regard. I'm a little confused though.in a couple places it clearly has '230 volts input' marked on it but then it has a regular 110 volt plug on it. When I tried to use it, even with 1/16 rods, it just does a little spark and then sticks to the metal.
I'm not an expert welder but that sounds like it's not getting enough voltage. Should this thing be rewired for (at least) 220V?
No owners manual came with it. I did a web search on 'Speedway Welders' and the only real hit I got was at Homier.com who sells the unit. I've contacted them 3 times now about an owners manual for some clues but they've yet to respond. In my mind this thing needs a different plug and some (at least) 220v. But I'm not going to get that with a regular 110v plug. I opened it up and the 110v plug/wiring looks very professionally done.wrapped and tie wrapped in all the right places.not jacklegged at all. So I'm a little hesitant to just re-wire in a 220v plug.I have a healthy respect (fear) for 220v.
Does anybody have a clue about how this thing is supposed to be wired up? I should be able to at least do thin metal with it.right? Thanks for any help. You will have to have a 220 'double throw' breaker. I'm telling you this not knowing what experience you have with wiring, so I may be telling you something you already know. 20 amp might work for that light duty welder 15 would probably be too low. 220 double throw?nope, you're all over top of my head.
20 and 15 amp I got. I'm still interested in the basic wiring of the unit.
I might be able to follow black here, white here, and green here. I know just enough about electronics to be dangerous. Just wish I could actually come help you with it. Be easier if I could get my hands on it.:bounce::bounce: Contender, Me too! Jeremiah, I concur completely with that logic. To much at stake.
I did get hooked up with another guy on a Welding site that has an older Speedway welder.its also 230v input and 100amp Arch welder but it's a different model number by one digit. He said his came wired, but with no plug. That I could understand. The plug on my unit is not the kind that can be removed without just flat cutting it off, so the whole plug and wire was installed as a unit. Guess I need to keep looking and asking. Thanks y'all for all the help and info.
Speedway Arc 75 Amp Welder
The nameplate will usually tell you the voltage needed, plus the amps you will need to supply to the unit. Sounds like it is a 230volt, so you would need to run a dedicated line for it from your electrical panel. The wire size is dependent on how many amps the model will need. You will have to purchase a 230volt outlet and a male end to hook to the welder cord. If you have never messed with electricity, I highly advise you to find an electrician to make the hook up.
If I was closer to you, I would help you out with it. You can message me if you have any questions.

Thanks JeffC303, I wish some of you guys were closer too! Another guy from that welding site may have given me another clue. He said there's probably a 'second' and empty input post on the switch.
When I had it open I saw where the single 110 line ran to the switch but can't remember for the life of me if there was another empty post on the switch. If there is an empty post on the switch then it all makes perfect sense to me. Unfortunatley I left the unit with a friend of mine so he could have the welders he works with take a look at it. They looked at it and didn't have a clue. They are all Hobart snobs:bounce. My plan was to use the 220 dryer outlet in my garage so I didn't plan on wiring up that end of it.
Just need to feel good about my attack plan on the welder itself. I'll get it back tomorrow and hopefully can confirm things.
I guess these Speedway welders are not very common. Nobody around these parts has ever heard of them. Thanks for the help.
