Intended Use
The Klutch MIG/Stick/TIG MP200iDV is an inverter-powered, dual voltage, wire feed welder for
flux core and MIG welding plus a DC stick welder. It uses a state of the art LCD control screen for
easy set-up. It comes complete with a regulator and gas hose for easy connection for MIG
welding plus a weld cable and electrode holder for DC stick welding. Directly connect this unit to a
230V NEMA 6-50R receptacle, or attach the supplied 120V adapter cord to operate off of 120V
power. It is designed to weld materials as thin as 24 gauge all the way up to 5/16" in a single
pass. This package also comes with our exclusive Quick Draw Spool Gun for welding aluminum
with 4" spools of aluminum wire. This unit can also perform lift start DC TIG welding on steel and
stainless steel materials with the optional TIG Torch #44455. Argon shielding gas and a TIG filler
rod would also be required for TIG welding.
Welding with a flux core wire gives the operator the flexibility to use this wire feed welder for
mobile applications, including outdoor applications. The flux core wire does not require the use of
a separate shielding gas which can be blown away by the wind in outdoor applications. Since flux
core welding does not use shielding gas, the operator will not have to have shielding gas bottles,
or use the regulator and gas hose.
Welding with a MIG wire does require the use of a bottle of shielding gas. See the Set-Up guide
inside the wire compartment door for recommendations on shielding gas based on the material
you are welding. MIG welding is limited to indoor applications or applications where the influence
of wind can be controlled to prevent the shielding gas from blowing away. MIG welding allows you
to weld thinner materials without burn-through. It also creates a much cleaner weld with less
spatter and no slag. The result is little post-weld cleaning of the weld joint.
Like flux core welding, stick welding gives the operator the flexibility to use this welder for mobile
applications, including outdoor applications. Stick electrodes contain a flux, making welding easy
and does not require the use of a separate shielding gas which can be blown away by the wind in
outdoor applications.
TIG welding does require the use of Argon shielding gas. The shielding gas replaces the flux that
is used in stick welding, providing a more controlled and cosmetic weld. However, TIG welding is
limited to areas inside or where wind can be controlled, preventing the shielding gas from blowing
away.
This unit is intended to be used on a 50 amp 230V AC circuit or 120V, 25A AC circuit, without the
use of an extension cord. If an extension cord is necessary for your application, use the
appropriate size and length of extension cord that will handle 50 amps the entire length of the
extension. We highly recommend talking with a qualified electrician for cord size
recommendations. This unit is supplied with a NEMA Class 6-50P plug and will require a NEMA
Class 6-50R receptacle. Do not remove the power plug. Use the supplied 120V adapter when
running off 120V power.
High frequency, inverter-based welding is more efficient and provides better control than non-
inverter welding machines.
