6/ First time I've ever tried ...and I need the argon to get started. I've got a consumer grade 220V MIG machine (Hobart Handler 175). Manual says "go for it, just swap the tank to argon". ...we'll see.https://twitter.com/paleonormie/status/1504558727243907080 …

I use CO2 / argon for steel manual says "pure argon" did Hobart docs lie to me?

They didn't lie, straight argon is acceptable, but you're not going to get the best weld quality with it. Also... you're using a spool gun I hope? Running aluminum wire through the liner is an exercise in futility, plus you need a separate liner for aluminum.

So... your steel wire will pick up a little bit of rust sitting in your machine and that rust gets on the feed rollers and embeds in the liner between the rollers and the gun. When you run the soft aluminum wire through it picks up the rust and carries it into your weld puddle.
