Swapped out the hose for a super flexible one i got from HTP. Was 120$ off ebay with a flex 9 head. Came with the adapter that made it a direct bolt on. It is so much better and the torch is incredibly easy to manipulate now. Would highly recommend.

 

what cup kit is that

 

I did the same thing when I had mine. That factory hose was the only gripe I had with that machine.

 

#12 chinese cup. Had to make some mods to get it to fit

 

Yeah alex, im pretty happy with the machine. I used to think it was crap and it was the reason my weld looked like ***. Now i'm feeling like i can make a pretty good quality weld. Still have a lot to learn and looking forward to needing a better machine some day

 

They're great little machines, I wouldn't mind picking up another to have at the house. You're making good progress, keep up the good work; the sky's the limit!

 

I picked up an air cooled #9 torch for my setup too.

It was really easy to find on the webfabulous website after I pulled up the CK9 website with part #.

CK9 torch with superflex hose (~$75)
Dinse connector (~$40)

Then add your cups, lens, back caps, collets (etc) if you had something other than a #9/20 before.

 

i assume this is for foot pedal..looks really good! i think this kit will fits for my machine.

this is my torch, what do you think?

 

The dinse itself might fit. but you need to figure out what type of argon connection works for you.

Also, you will need to find a solution for a pedal/switch that isn't built into the torch.

it really depends on the machine itself and not so much what you have now.
