Lincoln Redface

[96Joker]

Hey guys,

Just bought an old Lincoln Pipeliner today. It appears to be a real redface but I'm having trouble finding an accurate serial number breakdown online. The number I got off the faceplate gives serial number as TEM9116.

The only records I found put this at predating 1932 production, So I really don't think its right at all.

What do ya guys think?

u don't need the serial number. use the code number it's a four digit number below the serial on the face plate or on the side of the barrel of the gen should be starter side bout midway down might have to hit it with wire brush to find. lincoln electric web site has the code to year cross over or go to billswelderrepair.com they have a link to it on there site
