Why must you keep your Lincoln SA200/SA250/SA250 diesel?

Why should you keep your Lincoln SA welder

1. The Lincoln SA200, SA250 F163, and the Lincoln SA250 3.152

   They are the only engine-driven welders that can be maintained and repaired. The engines can be remanufactured and updated.

1. Even though Lincoln is obsoleting many of the original replacement parts for the SA-200, the aftermarket has come to your rescue with replacement items. The best ones are far superior to OEM. Always check the warranty on everything you buy—no warranty; (get it in writing) no sale. We sell our aftermarket exciter coils (L8707). Lincoln has obsoleted them. Thirty-five years of installing and selling them- no failures! When I install them in our shop, I give a lifetime warranty (parts and labor)—a 10-year warranty on the coils we sell.

2. Both Lincoln and Miller are producing PC boards that are manufactured to be non-repairable. Your board fails; they have no replacements. What do you do? I guarantee you're going to have a bad day when your repairman calls to tell you that you are the proud owner of a $25000.00 boat anchor with a Perkins diesel!

3. At this time, everything on the SA-200 and SA-250 can be replaced, rewound, rebuilt, or fabricated. More importantly, these machines are so simple that we can easily troubleshoot them. We have been in his industry since 1971. Do I know everything about these machines? Hell no! I learn something new every day, but I have a good understanding of what these machines do and how they work.

1. What will you replace it with? You can no longer buy a water-cooled gasoline engine welder, thanks to the EPA.

2. In my opinion, both Lincoln and Miller are manufacturing machines that are designed to be efficiently manufactured, not effectively repaired. They both have a vested interest in you not being able to fix their machines; the effective profit comes from selling new machines, not repair parts. It isn't easy to believe when you see the prices for simple items.

Scenario #1: You have an older SA machine that needs extensive work. Engine redone, new shunt coils, rewound armature —the list goes on. What should you do?

Scenario #2: You know you need an SA machine. If you buy one, you know it is going to need work; the last ones produced are now 35 years old.
