Hello.
I bought a used arc welder today which included a box with assorted
stuff. One of the things in the box was Victor O/A torch with cutting
head and regulators.

I'd like to get it running but am wondering how safe it would be. Do
I need to get it checked out by a service center first, or will any
problems be immediately detectable (and I dont mean a firey death)
when they are hooked up?
TIA !


Hook 'er up, see how things go. You might check the o-rings between the
head and body, sometimes they go bad.. other than that, if there's a
problem you'll notice it and be able to decide if you want someone to
repair it or if you'll just live with it.
