Lincoln Speedtec Compact FAQs

Straight answers to the questions people ask most when choosing and using a compact single phase multi-process welder.

Can it run from a normal domestic or site supply?

Many compact machines run from a single phase supply, and some can also run from a lower voltage supply, which is useful on site. Check the data plate for the voltage range, the current the machine draws and the fuse or breaker rating required.

Draw at full output can be more than a small supply or an extension lead can safely give, so use a correctly rated lead and follow the maker's instructions. If you are unsure, ask a competent electrician.

What thickness of metal can I weld?

It depends on the machine's maximum current, the process and the supply. As a general guide, compact machines are well suited to sheet and light to medium fabrication, with thicker material needing multiple passes or a bigger machine.

Check the maker's guidance for the thickness range on the supply you have, because a machine running from a reduced supply gives less output than one on a full supply.

Can I TIG weld with it?

If the machine includes a TIG function, it will be DC TIG, which suits steel, stainless steel and copper. It will not weld aluminium, which needs AC. You also need a TIG torch, an argon supply and a regulator, and often a starting method such as lift arc.

Check the manual to see how the TIG mode works and what accessories it needs.

How do I use stick welding mode?

Fit the electrode holder and work clamp, choose an electrode that suits the metal and joint, and set the current to the electrode maker's guidance. Strike the arc, keep a steady arc length and travel at a steady pace.

Electrodes should be kept dry and stored as the maker advises. Stick welding is forgiving of rust, paint and wind, so it is a good choice for site repairs.
