Millermatic 35 Welder Manual
Yep, I'd buy it. If you need parts or a gun, call Larry @ Weldmart Online (800-460-6474 - Spring, TX).he knows all the old welders and has parts or sources for everything, including all of my old Lindes. The MM35 is a great little machine for 0.035' hard wire.have never used one with flux core (I'd definitely use gas shielded flux cored wire if you go this route also) but would guess it would run well with that too. The flux cored wire allows great side wall fusion with low power.I try to tell people new to it that it's like stick welding as far as strength and ease of use (actually easier to use). You can multipass weld about as thick as you want with cored wire.

A good site to read up on mig welding is Weldreality.com - a bit hard to read sometimes, but great info, and no BS. We use the MM35's big brother (MM200) in our shop.mostly for root welds in pipe and the odd job. We do an open root short arc weld with 0.035' hard wire, clean it up a bit, and then fill and cap with an old Linde machine running about 150 amps with gas shielded flux cored 0.045' wire.one root and two fill/cap passes fills out a 0.322' wall 8' pipe. Thanks everyone forthe pros and cons. I have decided to buy it and we settled on $250 for the machine. It is missing a few small items that can be replaced. It also comes with a mig gun that is a year or so old, so at least it is aftermarket.
He is going to hold it for me untill I pick it up next weekend, so hopefuly it all works out. Steve - Thanks for the contact info for Larry @ Weldmart online. I talked with him this morning and he has put my mind at ease on this machine. Turns out he is about 45 min from where I am located. Thanks Again, Fred.
The 35 is is a 150 amp machine. Real low duty cycle, terrible wire drive. It was the first wire feed welder the market that was all in one unit. Save your money and pick up a millermatic 180. More powerful and portable. Better feed and a warranty.I have a friend who uses the 35 at work for lighter maintenance items on a barge slip (mississippi river) and rock crushing operation - he loves it.
For 300 bucks you can't buy a new HH140. You did good Fred. I'd love to find something like that to load up for sheet metal and leave it set. Everyone up here wants that much for their used clarkes. Millermatic 35 is far from bulletproof.
Bad wire drive and I dont know how many voltage tap plugs and recpts have replaced. They melt than short out.
Another problem is with the age of the machine. At this point the caps are usually shot and need to be replaced. About $150 from somplace like newark or digikey. Most people that have or are looking at a 35 are not doing anything near the duty cycle of either machine and those that would be considering a MM35 would be mostly home shop type applications where the 180 would suit 95% of what they want to do. Looks for a millermatic 200 at least. The millermatic vintage is also good.
