Became caretaker of Caterpillar Lincoln D315 twin arc welding machine today

That's really cool Mike! Looks like it's in pretty good shape, having the covers on I'm sure has helped when sitting outside. What does the hour meter read on it? Did you get a manual with it? I found a manual that should be here in the next day or two. Thanks.

Great start down the path Mike. Thanks for the video.

Looks and sounds good Mike! Nice job getting it going so quickly. What kind of coupler is between the engine and welder? Thanks.
