Q: Is this welder ready to weld out of the box?

4 months ago
1 Answer
  • A: Hi, the Hobart Champion 145 Engine Driven Welder is not ready to weld out of the box because it typically does not include essential accessories like welding cables (leads), a work clamp, or an electrode holder. To begin operating, you must separately purchase these leads along with electrodes, fuel, and engine oil.
