i have a Hobart handler 125 . i have had it for about 5 years in the fall i got the gas kit for it. today i finally got it put on. i am building a cart for it and ran out of flux core wire. i got it together put some .30 wire in it and trier it out . my welds looked awful . didn't have much penetration . looked like worms setting on the steel plate. tried a but weld with it set on 4 and the feed on 30 didn't get very good penetration and the weld looked slattery . i have the gas set on 20 .i am using 75% argon/25% co2. i am using a .35 tip . i then put .23 wire and tip in and it looked like the wire was melting before it got the metal plate i was welding . i turned the feed up and down and the power setting up and down with out ant luck.
