INTRODUCTION

The

 GO-FER III 

is a versatile tractor for use in cutting or welding applications. There are three models/

kits to choose from, each designated for the intended application; “OX” for Oxy-Fuel cutting, “PL” for 

Plasma cutting and “WD” for Welding applications. All models are all position machines, with positive 

rack and pinion drive. They feature a wide range solid state speed control.

The 

GO-FER III Welding Kit

 is an economical straight-line welding travel carriage. The all position its-all 

clamp will accept and accommodate any hand held welding gun and allow the operator to position the 

torch at any angle they desire. The racking group allows for in process torch adjustment of the vertical 

and horizontal plane. A built in torch trigger contactor allows the operator to activate the wire feeder from 

a switch on the top of the unit.

The 

GO-FER III Plasma Kit

 is speciically designed to work in conjunction with a plasma cutting system. 

Its travel speed of 8-100 inches per minute (203-2540 mm/min) and its direct rack and pinion drive make it 

ideal as an all position portable cutting machine for a plasma torch. The torch holder will accept any standard 

1-3/8" (35 mm) diameter machine torch that has a 32 pitch gear rack. A built in trigger contactor for initiating 

the cut makes the GO-FER a convenient self contained package.

The 

GO-FER III Oxy-Fuel Kit 

is used for straight line cuts and weld preparation beveling. The kit comes 

complete with the exception of a torch. The Bug-O torch holder will accept any standard 1-3/8" (35 mm) 

diameter machine torch with a 32 pitch gear rack. The quick-action gas manifold mounted to the rear of the 

machine is used as a strain reliever for the torch and also gives the operator the ability to turn on and off 

the gases without having to readjust the gas low of the torch.
