Been Given a Welder - Advice Req'd

[firebobby]

I think Kamsin is right about them being push fit, on my SIP welder they do come out though, see if they have a collar on them, if so push the pipe in and then push the collar in as well, as you have the collar in, try to pull the pipe...it may work, it did on mine

Firebobby,

Thanks for the PM and offer of help.

In the meantime I have taken some bits off of the welder and in particular the torch. I was hoping that I could get the tip out of the torch (see A in image below), but it was stuck solid, and as warned snapped off. I was also hoping I could replace the gas line, and wire liner (see B & C in image below) but I can't work out how to remove the little brass connectors that appear to be pressed in, or where to buy replacements.

Any advice appreciated. I have seen that you can buy the bent bit on the torches quite easly online. Cant see the little brass connectors though.

Please ignore D & E in the image.

Regards

Alan

Chuck it in the bin and buy a new one not expensive even for quality torch
