    Acklands welders built by Miller?

    I just found an Acklands model N-300 DC/CP/MA welder for sale. I have been told that Miller built these welders for Acklands Grainger and that they are identical to miller models. Does anyone know if this is true? If so is there a way to cross reference this machine to a Miller branded machine and thereby obtain a service/owners manual? Thanks very much for any replies.

    If you have a picture maybe someone would recognize it.

    Careful if you are planning on buying it. Some of Millers old '300' series were 100% duty cycle 300Amp machines and often 3 phase.

        Miller built many machines for Acklands-Grainger over the years. Many of them came in orange color.

          Hey, we can help!

          Cliff, my name is Sandro Verrelli, VP Sales & Marketing with Acklands-Grainger. It's true, Miller did produce welding machines for us for many years... in a stunning "Acklands Orange" finish! As most of our machines were virtually identical to the 'Miller blue' models, it's likely that we'll be able to track down the service manual for you. We have some of our folks looking into this now and should have an answer for you shortly. We'll post our response in this forum or feel free to contact me directly at [email protected] so that we can get you what you need directly.
          Have a safe day!
          Sandro

                We have several industrial Acklands-Grainger welding power sources at work.
                One of my faves is the XAT 304 (Miller XMT 304) in orange color.

                        Just for future reference ,i have an acklands Midget mig welder,if i go to the miller manuals on line and type in my serial # it directs you to the service manual for the miller 70 amp cricket mig welder,which is an exact match except for color so try the serial # if you suspect your machine is a miller
