TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Machine is dead - no welding out-
put and no wire feed when gun
trigger is pulled.

1. Make certain that the input

power switch is in the "ON" posi-
tion.

2. Check the input voltage at the

machine. Input voltage must
match the rating plate and the
reconnect panel.

3. Blown or missing fuses in the

input line.

4. Check for thermal light on case

front. Thermostats may be open
due to machine overheating. If
machine operates normally after
a cooling off period then check
for proper fan operation and ven-
tilation. Make certain that the
machine’s duty cycle is not being
exceeded.

5. Remove the gun trigger connec-

tion and jump the two connec-
tions at the machine. If you
have a wirefeed gun, it may be
faulty. Replace.

1. Check for the correct input volt-

age at the line switch. (L1-L2)
See Wiring Diagram.

2. Check for loose or faulty con-

nections between the line
switch and the reconnect
panel.

3. Perform the Main Transformer

Test.

4. Check the red LED’s (1 & 2) on

the digital power supply board.
They should be lit indicating
that DC voltage is being
applied to plugs J42 and J43.
See Wiring Diagram.

If LED’s 1 & 2 are not lit check
for the presence of 42 VDC at
plug J41 pin 2(+) and pin 1(-).
If the 42 VDC is present and
LED’s 1 & 2 are not lit the digi-
tal power supply board may be
faulty.

If the 42 VDC is not present at
plug J41 perform the Control
Rectifier Test.
