I’m not good on ladders. So I’ll keep it on the “ low “ setting. Thanks DaveDavidBarkey wrote: ↑Sat Mar 18, 2023 4:55 pmHigh is for standing on a ladder and low is for lying under .

Nice welder!

Re: New to me antique welder
There are two connections for the stinger plug. One for high and one for low. The amps on the scale on the front of the machine may read the same but the voltage will be different. Higher voltage on the high scale.
