I don't think the 75 Amp setting is 100% duty cycle anymore.
My early 1970's era tombstone has the 75A setting circled, but new ones at Home Depot do not.

My Lincoln has been pushed way past the 20% duty cycle on many occasions over the last 40 years and it's still kicking. The only problem it's had is the cooling fan went bad. I replaced it with a large 220V muffin fan from Mouser Electronics.
