I see its missing a lot of screws that worries me. Does it work? on 120 and 230 volts? You have to know this before any thing else.

If it works Ok then it was worth it. Some clean up inside and out, some screws, a new ground cable, clamp and some new consumables your set.

 

To be honest, the missing screws worried me as well. I think someone was just lazy and didn't put them back in because I took off the cover and the thing literally looks brand new on the inside. I already cut that horrendous excuse of a ground cable off, and I plan on picking up a new one. I seen on the torch that it's ICE ?27

I opened up the little cubby on the side and there were some consumables.

There is a slot and a switch that allows it to work on 115V or 230V...however, it's an old dryer plug on it. How do I ge a 115V plug for it, and can I get a MVP for it?

 

I just made mine its a 20 amp 110 vac on 3-10 wire

 

Yes it is the ice 27 torch or you can use the newer version of it that comes on the 375 xtreme

 

I had one.

Machine works great, the ICE27 is a POS, mostly because the cable cover is a hard type of plastic. It has an aweful memory and wants to spring away from you and stay coiled all the time. Drove me nuts.

 

I tried ordering a new outer shell for the machine, but as you can tell from the pics it looks as the the sticker with model number is missing. Does Miller have the serial/model number anywhere in the machine? I've tried looking the information up online, but I cannot seem to find anything.

 

I have that same model. I would not pay for a new wrapper, I have cleaned up Miller equipment that was a lot worse than that and they looked almost new. Some good degreaser, some clean cloths, and a good bit of elbow grease and it will look great. Spray the degreaser on the cloth, not the face of the machine. Then use some paste wax or car wax on it to make it shine.

I believe once you get a new ground wire, clamp, and re-wire the plug you will have a real bargain. The screws should be common hardware items. Look in the manual.

I left the 110v plug on mine and made an adapter like assassin did to plug into 220v.

Great find!! Let us know what you do.

 

So, I cleaned it up a bit and took off the stickers that were getting ugly. I replaced the ground clamp with a proper one, and splice the wires together properly with a butt connector.

These are my results....

Looks much better. I would also replace the missing screws on the cover. May as well buy enough that all of them match. My MM210 has sheet metal screws with a 5/16" hex head.

 

Sh$t...that's what I forgot. Maybe I'll have to make a trip again.

 

More pics, I added some decals and took the old ones off. I used some industrial strength degreaser and got some of the paint overspray off...Northwoods Breakaway & Big Bite. I might just end up keeping it, stating to look really good.

If I'm posting too many pics let me know...

You can easily get those original stickers.

The removal of the SN sticker is a bit disturbing. Usually not a sign of good things.

I'm nuts too about having clean machines.

We love pictures.

 

Yeah, I hear ya. I did call the local PD and checked if there were any reportings of stolen property but there weren't.

So I just got off the phone with someone from the Miller Plasma Group and the guy informed me that the unit I have is a field test unit.

He based his decision on the fact that it had "SAMPLE" written in black sharpie on the center baffle inside the machine. He also said that although the machine was never meant to be sold, it's not a problem that I currently have possession of it. I told him it was a huge relief to know that.

All said and done, I picked it up for $350 ...legit.

But does it work?

 

Yes it does...I have to get a bigger air compressor but the little that I tried with it was great.

HA Good deal! I drove 6 hours one way and paid $900 for my Spectrum 375 Cutmate. Oklahoma to Missouri. Consider yourself fortunate!
