I have to weld a winch at a remote location and the generator is a coleman 4000 watt (16.6 amp at 240 volts). The lincoln welder is A/C, DC. What is the highest setting I can safely use on the DC side for the 16.5 amp from the generator and what size diameter rod (probably 6013 or 6011) to weld 1/4" mild steel.
Is there a formula for figuring what the DC amp setting should be for the amp input from the generator?
Thanks!
