1 Output Control

Use control to set cutting output.

The yellow zone is for use on 20 A or greater primary circuits.

Place control in Gas/Air Set position to safely adjust gas/air pressure. Only gas/air circuit is activated.

If 20-25 amperes of cutting output is used with 115 VAC input power, and the overload protection on the input power circuit fre- quently opens, either reduce the cutting out-

put and/or the cut time or find more adequate power (see Section 3-8).

3Ready Light

Use light to tell if unit is ready for operation.

Ready light comes on when Power switch is placed in On position, indicating that all safe- ty shutdown systems are okay.

If Ready light does not come on, check Trouble Lights.

1025 specifications

Hobart Welding Products has long been a trusted name in the welding industry, and their Hobart 1025 model stands out as a reliable choice for both professionals and hobbyists. Designed primarily for MIG welding, the Hobart 1025 is suitable for a variety of applications including automotive repairs, metal fabrication, and home projects.

One of the key features of the Hobart 1025 is its user-friendly interface. The machine comes equipped with an intuitive control panel that allows users to set their welding specifications easily, ensuring an efficient setup process. This is particularly beneficial for beginners who may find complex machines daunting. With its solid construction and portability, the Hobart 1025 can be used in various environments, making it a versatile tool for different welding tasks.

The welding output range of the Hobart 1025 is one of its standout characteristics. It offers a power range of 25 to 140 amps, allowing it to handle a wide range of materials from thin sheet metal to heavier stock. This flexibility enables welders to adjust the machine based on specific project requirements, delivering quality results each time. Additionally, the machine works well with a variety of wire types, including flux-cored and solid wire, providing users with more options for their welding needs.

Another highlight of the Hobart 1025 is its advanced technology. The machine features a built-in thermal overload protection mechanism that prevents overheating, thus prolonging its lifespan and ensuring safe operation. This technological aspect ensures that users can work longer without the risk of damaging the equipment.

Moreover, the Hobart 1025 is designed for efficiency. It boasts a smooth arc transfer that reduces spatter and produces clean welds, which minimizes the need for post-weld cleanup. This efficiency translates to time saved on projects, allowing users to focus on completing their work rather than dealing with excess cleanup.

In summary, the Hobart Welding Products 1025 model offers impressive features, flexibility, and advanced technologies that cater to a diverse range of welding applications. With its user-friendly design, reliable performance, and durable construction, it continues to be an exceptional choice for both novice and experienced welders alike.
