You need two side by side spaces on the bus bar. Remove two single breakers, replace with a tandem breaker or two splits and then install your 50 amp 220 breaker connected to a 50 amp receptacle. Got it? If not, hire an electrician.
Probably, but to be sure you need the AC input numbers, not the welder's output numbers. Since the welder appears to draw about 7 kilowatts, you will need at least a 40 amp dual breaker. That means you will need two slots, not just one.
when you say one spot..do you mean one slot for a single breaker 120 volt or one slot for double breaker 220 volt...you will need slot for 40 amp double breaker if welder needs 220 volts input power.
