I'm pretty sure that they are almost bulletproof.
I suggest that you contact WESS Welding Equipment Sales and Service at Cormack Rd Wingfield, for more details re spares etc if required, they've been around a looooong time, about 30+ years, so if there were any problems with them, they'd know.

CIG Rural Pak
Fantastic welder, bought one new in the 1980’s from CIG in Karratha, learned to weld aluminium with it.
The day I sold it to a boilermaker in the mining town I lived in was a sad one, as I was leaving that job for another I could not fit it my trailer.
Found that welder to be one if the best Mig’s I have owned.
