control to accurately select the proper
wire feed rate needed for various
welding conditions. Internal components
are thermostatically protected.
This welding system is designed for use
with the Flux Cored Arc Welding
(FCAW) or the Gas Metal Arc Welding
(GMAW) process. As delivered from the
factory, this welder can weld with .030"
(0.8mm) diameter flux core wire. A
starter spool of .030" (0.8 mm) flux
cored wire is included.

to purchase shielding gas and MIG wire
only. With the MXW308, a regulator
/hose kit must be purchased in addition
to the shielding gas and MIG wire.
