Hobart AM-9. Most likely from the late 60's. I've used them many times and they are a true powerhouse.

At 240V three-phase you'll dim your neighbors lights every time you turn it on! |

Yes you will need three phase 208 power to run the motor [ never heard of 240 three phase power ] but the overall power draw of this machine is little more that a standard electric clothes dryer so other than the motor this would run fine in almost any house. I have run several commercial Hobart DWs at our shop on the 30 AMP dryer test circuit that have 5000 watt booster heaters. |
