That'll be because no one has ever got one working,.
I wouldn't waste your time with it, its one of those 1970s exchange and mart tools that people bought and then just threw in the back of the garage,

Hahaha fair enough mate! Be a few weeks till I can get round to playing with the welder! As moving house atm but looking forward to trying a arc welder
