Vulcan Outlaw 195 DC Welder 6500W Generator DC Welders
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 มิ.ย. 2021
- We have been researching welders and came across this at Harbor Freight. They have been making Vulcan Welders for a few years, and we heard good things. We break out the Vulcan Outlaw 195A DC stick welder on our trailer project. I am a bit rusty with a stick welder, but after a few tries, it came back to me. The ramps turned out solid. The welder generator is a perfect mobile welding system with pro features. I got this welder at Harbor Freight and will have to say they are stepping up their game! We now have many of their Pro tools, and they are just that. PRO!

*Great solar **Generater.Systems** ! Was bought for camping and to use for a cpap machine! Worked perfectly!!*
I think you posted in the wrong video. LOL! It happens
So back in my highschool days we used to do welding on everything in the community for class. built bumpers, trailers, etc. We had a boy welding some round on for ramps, very much like what you did with your tube on round stock approach.... only he forgot to slide the ramp outer tube onto the round before welding up the ends. Took him a good while to figure out why we were all laughing at him. Oh, the good ole' days. I never never woulda made a boilermaker, but you get an A from me on the job!
I appreciate that. I love to weld and make stuff. I have never been a great welder, but I am an OK melter. 😇😇😇
A welder generator for the hobbyist is a no brainer . Best of both worlds for the extra money . 7018 3/32 is nicer for going around small diameters like that on the pin . Not a big fan of welding pipe on like that . Flat bar brackets on side with holes for pipe thru then fillet weld around both sides . Easier and no chance of pipe wall cracking or tear out . You did a great job though 👍👍
Thank you. I loaded the big tractor up, and nothing broke. Good so far. I appreciate your input.
You did a great job. That welder looks excellent!
Thank you, my friend.
It's that time again. time for that one year review on a welder, how's it holding up? What problems does it have? What do you like about it? What it can do and cannot do? What do you wish it had or didn't have? And anything else you think is important. Keep up the great videos!
It just works my friend. I use good gas with fuel stabilizer in it, and it never fails to start. I have used it to weld and to run an A/C and Fridge when the power was out. I am not a pro welder, but it always does what I want and it is easy to use. Really, not many complaints. I have about 15 hours welding with it, so take that for what it is. Most of my jobs are small.
💥 That looks like a very nice welder. I’ve been wanting to get back into welding for a long time. It’s a been about 20 years. Hope I can remember how.
*Keep on tractoring!* 👍
Just like riding a horse.
Truth be known, I never was a great horse rider. 😁😁😁😁
Looks good. just a suggestion u might want to cut the bottom of the raps at an angle and weld a flat plate on them so u won't dig into the ground or asphalt roads when u off load
I agree. I may put a flat piece of steel on the bottom too.
Wow Tony, that welding is a handy skill to have. I have a stick welder and I know exactly what an amateur weld looks like. Your welds look professional beside my booger welds. Awesome job on your ramps.
Thank you, my friend. I love the welder to this point.
Good morning Sir 😊👍 You did an Outstanding field welding trailer ramp repair/building Sir 💪👍😊 You are very well set up and that field welder/generator is great for sure 👌🧐👍 Have a great week Sir and I can see that your wife had fun with the tractor too 💪👍😉 Cheers 🍻
Thank you my friend. I wish I was half the welder you are. I appreciate your support. Tony
@@TonysTractorAdventure Sir, Thank you very kindly for the compliment but I do think and I do see you as a great welder and on the top of that , you have an outstanding team work between you and your wife 😇👍🍻
Nice to see a regular guy doing it yourself. Wish I took up welding for my small engine hobby @ 66yr. old who knows??
With the excellent equipment available and TH-cam videos, never too late too learn. Also check out your local community college welding classes.
It is never too late to learn.
Now that's some ramp! They will hold up! Very good job Tony! I like how they came out! Have a good one! See ya!
I ran the 474 up them loaded. They never flexed. Have a great weekend, brother.
Great video Tony -- thank you for taking the time to post this. Helps me as someone in the process of learning. Nice job with your preps and welds.
I will never be a pro, but my welds are holding. Thank you for watching.
I love those new ramps You're building they should last a long time and provide lots of loyal service keep up the good work I'm proud of you oh yes tell Hank I said hello
I definitely will pass it on to Hank. I appreciate your comment.
Excellent job on those ramps, and your welds too. Looks better than my welds that’s for sure. Keep up the great work sir
Thank you, my friend. The ramps are holding up well.
Nice build. I have the harbor freight Migmax 215 and I love it. Sold an old Lincoln welder to buy it. Your new welder looks to be a good machine. HF has some darn nice welders at a fantastic price point.
HF has really come a long way. They are putting in a new store in my town. I may go broke.
Good job. About that pipe. You did fine. I might have used a piece of 3/8 filler rod, or no 3 or 4 rebar, where I welded the pipe to the trailer if I was building for a customer but that's not a big deal. It wiMiller's.
It sounds like you are impressed with the welder. I am thinking about buying one as backup for our Miller Bobcat 230. Right now we have two trucks and one welder, which is most unhandy. But we do not need two Millers.
I know nothing about welding Tony, but the setup looks capable and the job looks stout. Good point about using the genny for domestic supply in a bind.
I appreciate you. We lose power every year during the winter. It will be nice to have that much backup power.
Thank you for the video. You just helped make a decision. Will be buying this in the future for a welding trailer build I'm doing. I can't seem to find a trailer that is built the way that I like them. So therefore I'm building one from scratch
The welder generator is holding up well. I used it just last week
I like use 6011 on 1/4 inch plate or 3/8 plate 3/16 plate I like eithr 6011 or 6013
But I like 7018 going uphill on 3/8 plate
Either 6011 or 7018 Is what I mostly use and metal plate flat plate is what I like useing 1/4 inch thick or 3/8 is best for me
Yeah them vulcans are good I have a omnipro 220 and I love it to
Good job and machine 👍 look very strong creation , merci du partage 🤗🧑🏭
Thank you
Looks like a very practical unit, and really enjoyed your video editing style. Easy on the eyes AND ears! Not that it matters that much, but curious how loud the generator is. I assume it is about the same as my Champion Chinese Noisemaker, but having a welder attached seems extremely practical. Good thing the grass is green out there! In California, half the state would be on fire by now! Thanks!
It turns out it is really quiet.
Hi Tony, That was fun to watch. I want to learn to weld now that I have property, tractors and starting to get some tools. Harbor Freight has been my friend so far. I will have to check that Vulcan Outlaw out.
I have several of the pro-level Harbor Freight tools. They are as good as the big-name brands. I appreciate your kind comment.
Nice video and good job. It's always satisfying to do a job yourself. This video help me get an idea of getting a generator. Thanks
I think this unit is a win! Thank you for your support.
I'm not very good at welding....but I can solder pipe with the best of 'em! 😎 Good work Tony! 👍👍
I have never soldered pipe yet. I can melt metal fair!😁
Wtf would you solder a pipe for?
Pipes are solder in the plumbing industry. Some places require copper pips due to codes.
Nice job! Similar to how I hinged my ramps.
They are holding up well. I have a few more upgrades but it has rained for days here.
Nice upgrade. I invested in a gen 3 Prius CVT to use the motor generators (MG1 and MG2) for a engine welder/plasma cutter/alternator (generator) on a garden tractor platform using an opposed twin B&S 18HP since that's the engine they used on their hybrid car and I might use both MG's to make a hybrid design eventually is the plan. In the queue and slowly moving forward on. Neat seeing HF having as I was just looking to see what the latest and greatest projects are. Will see if I can move forward with my project this winter. Still need to design, fabricate and setup my testing fixtures first and foremost since there's not much data on those MG's though some can be deduced/infered. Thanks for sharing!
That sounds like an exciting project. Thank you for watching.
We looked at this welder at harbor freight this past weekend, not to shabby, decent quality but a little too pricey for my taste.
A Miller is about $1500 more for the same features.
That’s a nice gen/welder wow I’d love to have that thanks for sharing buddy
I love the welder. It is going to be a handy tool.
You did a nice job
Thank you. I am no pro, but the ramps held up!
Thank yoi Mr. TONY, very helpful video
You are very welcome
Good Job! and great Idea with the tubes for the hinges. I had a 18' trailer with the ramps you had to take off and stow underneath and that got old fast... and they are not light. I bet you really appreciate the swing up ramps now. That Harbor freight welder/geny looks like a winner..
The ramps have worked well and I am loving the welder. I appreciate you watching.
@@TonysTractorAdventure You do a great Job Tony, I'm sure it's not easy with the cameras and all... Enjoying your channel, subscribed a few weeks ago. We have a house with an acre in central Fla. but looking to buy a farm up in N. Michigan where my wife's family is at.... so taking it all in.... keep up the good work !!!
Thank you, my friend. We are plugging away here. Hanging trusses today
+Mike Q thank you. The welder does great.I have a bigger job coming up.
Great job! Nothing to be embarrassed about.
Thank you, my friend.
Came here from HF to leave a thumbs up!
I really appreciate that. We are still waiting on concrete for our shop. After that, I will be doing more videos with this welder. We have metal trusses.
You did good
Thank you
don't be afraid to use bigger rod=3/16th 6011 + 5/32 7018----run 6011 3/16 slightly cool on gaps , just linger in a circle a little bit to let it heat and deposit before cruising into the gap or bevel otherwise it will seem way too cold
That makes a lot of sense. Thank you.
I would have made the C channel on the sides a lot longer past the other piece that boxes the end and coped. You would have the top of the pipe flush with the outside of the top of the C channel that way you could weld the ends as well, I would also put a weld in the middle. If that don't hold nothing will.
I appreciate your input. There is always room to learn. To this point, the ramps are holding up well. They only need to handle a 9,000 pound tractors, and that is light in the tractor world. I think at some point I will upgrade to a heavier trailer.
Great video did you build support legs for your ramps that will help you out with loading up and unloading. It will also keep the trailer from picking up on the back of the truck when the tractor is backing off and on.
I just bought two jacks to weld on the side of the trailer.
Keeping the nose from bouncing up is a great idea.
I need this welder
My friend I'm about to have to reup my HF membership lol. I have two Lincoln welders but I don't have a gen/welder. On the pipe hinge of the ramps I would add a gusset or two on the bottom side and maybe a a way to add flat strap metal to hold the ramps up in transport
Hey, thank you. I bought some jacks for the trailer sides. I got to weld them on next.
@@TonysTractorAdventure I just got a email add from HF last night for this welder and they have this video of you using the same welder as a highlight in the add.
They asked if they could share it. Good for them and me.
@@TonysTractorAdventure yes sir
Awesome. Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome job, I always heard only 1% of the world population can weld, such a personal pleasure to be able to fab, that dog will hunt!
I ran the big tractor over the ramps yesterday day. They held up! I love building things. I appreciate you.
other than a few gussets on the hinge pipe i say it's perfect.
Thank you my friend. It was a fun project
@@TonysTractorAdventure it looked it.
I rather enjoy welding. Kinda made it my trade.
Sheet metal worker but weld a bit for work and side work.
Thanks Again Great Video For Me
Thank you.
Nice video man loved everything about it
Thank you, my friend.
Cool. Thanks man...
Subbed. Great attitude and advice.👍💪🇺🇸🙏🏼
Thanks for the sub! I appreciated it. I have been using this welder on and off for 2 years now. It always works.
I enjoyed your video. Your commentary style is great and i love how you say "ittt'll hoed." Reminds me of moving to Georgia in 10th grade and the english teacher said "class turn-own page 200 of Alas Babalon." And then the suburbs of Atlanta lost that rural Georgia accent. Impressive welder generator whats it run on $ ? Their quality over at harbor freight is getting better snd better, now nobody can bitch, its good stuff.
Harbour Freight has stepped up their game for sure. They have nice stuff.
Tony, that was a great job and inspirational. What is the least expensive welding unit one would require to handle a task comparable to Tony's effort?
I can't answer that. There are so many welders on the market. This has to be one of the best value welder generators on the market. The next closest price was almost $3000 more.
A two hundred amp mig welder from HF would do it. Any 220volt welder with 180 to 200 amps.
I'd go with a thicker pipe sir . That one will eventually rip off . But those ramps look great .
I appreciate your comment. I think I will be ok. The heaviest thing we drive up is a 7500-pound tractor. I did buy two rotating jacks to weld on the back. That will keep the trailer from squatting.
Nice job. Can you tell us the material list and dimensions for your ramps.
I also own the HF high end bandsaw. Now that's a combination with super clean cuts. Haven't even bothered to use the coolant tank with mine. Stopped using my Dewalt 14" carbide tipped multi cutter slow speed chop saw.
Great job. Looking forward to a materials list. And possibly a cut list.
Thanks
I am sorry I don't have a list. I just built it in my head. It was 3 inch C channel and angle.
I have a question you think I could knock out a pipe fence with this welder. And how’s the duty cycle I noticed you didint have any problems at all.
I absolutely think it would work fine. I have never had it overheat on me.
I came for a review of the welder, awesome job by the way! But I would like to know what little welding table is that? Is it custom?
I bought the welding take at Harbor Freight years ago. It has held up well.
When I weld 7018 on pipe I always weld about 125amps DC and go uphill
What size rod are you using?
I like to weld 7018 or 6011
1/4 inch thick flat plate or 3/8 if i am welding 3/8 Plate I will go uphill 7018 about 125 amps
I’ve got a brand new Vulcan 195 outlaw. I followed set up for welding. The only way I can get it to weld is turn on the on/off welding switch and also the 2pole breaker under the snap lid. The engine revs up like it has a load and will not idle down after you stop welding. I’m sure that’s not normal because all other gasoline welders idle back down when not welding. Am I missing something. I have went over the directions several times and it doesn’t say to turn on the 2pole 30amp breaker before you weld. Please help
I do everything you said for the welder to work. Mine will drop RPM after I stop welding for a while. It will still is at a. high idle.
Great job Tony. May I ask why you don't replace that floor board on the dove tail. Just curious. Always enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing. Iowa cares :)
Gene, it is on my to-do list. I have to cut six welds to replace the board.
How's the welder holding up I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on one of these
Funny you should post this. I have not started it in a 45 days. It was cold yesterday, and I needed to weld up something. It hit on the first try and welded like a champ. I am still happy with it.
Do you don’t have to hook up the panel ground?
You don't have to hook the ground up for welding or for most light duty generation situations. If you are running a generator with sensitive electronics then a ground is a good choice. The ground, obviously, would make the unit safer if it ever had a dead short. Many small generators don't even have a ground terminal.
@@TonysTractorAdventure thanks a bunch for the info!
The hobart champion 145 is alot smaller and lighter but less amps
I like the welder generator. It has helped me on more than one occasion.
What are your thoughts on how loud the unit is? I see the main body isn't covered or insulated. Just curious if it could be quieted down? Also any issues with the duty cycle on it? Did you ever need to give it cool down time?
Very quiet for its size. I never had to cool it down. I will do another video when I know more.
I need help with purchasing correct size generator for my welder but nothing over the top ,, tia
Hobart Stickmate 160i
It can run off 110,115,120v or 220,230,240v input power ,
•120v = 20-80amps (65amps @20%)
•240v = 20-160amps (160amps @30%)
•Minimum generator power required = 2500watts
•Minimum welding amps = 20amps
•Maximum welding amps = 160amps ,
Sorry, I missed your comment. I would go with at least a 6000 watt generator. Running a welder is different. There is a sudden pull of electricity when the weld is started. A bigger generator is needed.
You didn't see need for legs on your ramps? That is a very good good job on the build. I don't think you are an amateur welder either.
I am welding jacks on the side of the trailer. I have seen the ramp legs fold up the ramp when the trailer moved forward. I see the need. Thank you for your input. Tony
I have the vulcan commander 225 SMAW machine and the SOB wont run 6010 at all... does thst generator run 6010?????
I never tried any. I run 6011 or 7018 sometimes. 6011 is stronger but not as pretty.
I ask cause i just love using 6010.
Thank you for replying bro looks good!!
I just got this welder and set it up. It seems that the auxiliary power switch needs to be in the on position to operate the welder . Is that correct ? I didn't find anything in the operating instructions about it. Thanks
Yes sir!, Both switches have to be on. I went through the same thing. Still loving the welder. First oil change done.
@@TonysTractorAdventure Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to reply.
I’ve been waiting on that welder for a while when did Vulcan debut that welder generator?
It showed up on their website this week. I am not sure when all the stores will have it. I really like it so far.
I really want to purchase this welder do you think it’s a better buy than the Hobart champion 145 ?
I never on one of the other brands, but this one does a nice job.
I Order mine today they said it would take 3 weeks to get to the store I’m excited
I am welding metal roof trusses together this week. I am looking forward to it now. I have the right tool.
@@TonysTractorAdventure if you can post more videos
Will do
Will this run a 5/32 7018?
I don't see why not.
When are they gonna restock
I am just a customer.
I just want to know if its worth it for such a high price tag
I know it is a matter of perspective, but other units cost so much more. I think it is worth it.
I think the Lincoln welder very similar selling for maybe $60. , more.
Nothing I have seen comes close to price
Does it run 6010?
I don't see why not. It is a DC stick welder. I am impressed with it.
Lol, not all dc stick welders will run 6010, what is its OCV? the higher the better
I have always had the understanding 6010 was for DC only. Every 6010 manufacturer's website says DC only for 6010. I know 6011 will run in both AC and DC. I am the first to say I am no pro welder.
Can that welder do tig
It is only a DC arc welder. It does that very well.
How has it held up
Working fine
Any updates ??
I use it often with no problem.
What do you do if you need parts for that thing. Just hope it doesn’t break?
No. You call the Harbor Freight parts department or order your Expendables from any welding store. It uses universe leads like most brands.
@@TonysTractorAdventure I called my weld repair shop (weld right)
They says they don’t work on em can’t get parts
The Ford dealer will not support Ram trucks. I probably wouldn't recommend it to you.
YOUNG MAN ,
I M RETIRED , I ENJOY WELDING , I BUILD HEAVY DUTY WELDER CART AND 1/4 " ANGLE IRON STEEL RAMP , THE RING WAY AN MY WAY / MY POINT ARE UP /NOT UP SIDE DOWN RAMP MOST WELDER MAKE OR WRONG WAY TO BUILD STEEL RAMPS
I appreciate your comment. I have used the ramps several times now. Zero flex. Thank you again.
Does it come with higher altitude jet?
It did not.
Update
It still works well
bring back the 25% coupon or any vi va la coupon
I hear you. Vivi la coupon
Price??
Link in the video description.
Can you weld and power tools at the same time?
I would not think it would work, but I never needed to try.
@@TonysTractorAdventure that doesn't answer my question, but thank you anyway!
I don't have all the answers! 😎😎😎👍
Ac machine?
In the title. 😜It is a 6500w AC Generator with a 195amp DC welder. I never cared for AC welding; too much splatter.
Geinder makes what the welder aint my man. Not too bad. Seen worse pass through inspection.
Yes sir. A grinder makes a weld look good!
being the cheap lazy A$$ I am I would of just turn the ramp over. ;) Looks like a decent job!
The original ramps were not heavy enough for our biggest tractor.
I do appreciate your comments 👍
@@TonysTractorAdventure oh, I didn't say it was right... LOL Ran it that way 'till they were flat again and added some metal under them. Again, not the right way but the cheap lazy way. ;)
Don't you wish you could actually move that fast....
What I could get done if I could move that fast. 👍
You're not kidding you can get a lot done only thing badge couldn't sit there and enjoy yourself if you could just turn it on and then turn it off I enjoyed your show thank you thank you it was good
Why pay $2000 for harbor freight when you can get a used Lincoln or Miller for the same price?
I like what I got and it is holding great. Mine is new and I know how it has been treated. I welded my barn trusses up yesterday. HF has upped their game. They have some good stuff. I do appreciate your point of view. Tony
As long as your happy that's all that matters. I just worry about trying to find parts buts always my concern with harbor freight, they do have some great tools. Someone also pointed out not everyone is a professional welder and it's nice to have a machine just one person can move around, and at half the price of the cost of anything in it's class as far as brand new it dose look pretty attractive.
Tony do you remember a subscriber you had last year that liked to tease Hank about wasp nests red wasp and yellow jackets
That subscriber went by the name
Dear anil. I changed smartphones I also changed smartphone programming that used to be me now you see my true name I finally bought a decent phone Worthy of my prestige I got rid of those cheap $49 Walmart phones and bought a Motorola from the factory $250 dollars this phone has impressed me it even has special recognition and the talking Google Assistant I no longer have the assistant this phone has is Alexa I am still trying to learn the rocket science of this new smartphone tell Hank I said hello
