The cool thing about these machines is that they are designed to be serviced and rebuilt if necessary time and time again. Hardly any plastic on these things so they can last and last if you keep them from rusting out . Really cool to see it up and running!!!

never hand spin round and round!!! roll to TDC then jerk. Good way to get a broken arm with the round and round if it where to kick back. If does not start on a jerk something not right. I have a Lincoln 180as jerk start no problem ,,,,

Broken arm can definitely happen. I'm living proof of it. Tried to crank start an old tractor after I watched a guy wind milling the crank. I said let me do that your only supposed to jerk it quick. I started to push the crank down so I could jerk it up, bang!!! Kicked back snapped my arm clean break. Lessons learned the hard way haha

@@1vester1 it was actually a battery ignition or distributor. I think the guy that was wind milling it has it so pumped up with compression and raw gas that when I tried to crank it, it was like the perfect storm. You always hear old timers talk about getting your arm broke with an old hand crank. Im 29 it happened to me when I was about 23. So a word from the not so wise, if your going to grab that crank you best be thinking about what your doing😲

Those are wonderful old machines and weld beautifully. You were lucky when it went to high RPM that it didn't sling the armature apart. Maximum RPM on a short hood is 1450. Get that tachometer and set your idle and high RPMs and download a manual from Lincoln on your R51 idler and see if you can get it working. It's worth fixing for sure
@matthewrandall6320

Clay did get that fixed. He welded with it quite a bit. He has since sold it and is looking for another one. It was very impressive to see that run after all the years of it sitting. The previous owner thought it had been about 30 to 40 years since it was running.

Never seen a 200 until you tube. nice little machine. would b nice if one could fabricate some kind of electric starter for them. Would b better for the older welders lol! I have a 1956 Lincoln 300 amp generator welder. It has a industrial flat head Chrysler 6 powering it. It does have a electric starter. larger machine than the 200. the engine is independent from the generator. It has a clutch that engages and disengages the generator. I also have to clean both places on the armature same as was shown. I have the tool with the stones on each end. They may b harder to find but, maybe some electrical shops that still carry and sell out of date stuff may have one around. I think the stones works a lot better than fine emery. Emery still helps if u got nothing else.

Easy as adding 2ea 12volt batteries to start it off weld lugs. Uses the armature as a elect motor. Lincoln has the paperwork on how it's done
