- Symptoms
- Major physical or electrical damage is evident.
- The machine is dead-no open circuit voltage and no wire feed when the gun trigger is activated. The cooling fan is not...
- There is no open circuit voltage or wire feed when the gun trigger is activated. The cooling fan is...
- When the gun trigger is activated and the wire feeds normally, but there is no open circuit voltage.
- Output voltage and wire feed speed is present when the gun trigger is NOT activated.
- The machines output is low. Welds are “cold”. The weld beads are rounded or “humped” demonstrating...
- The output voltage is continuous when the gun trigger is NOT activated. The wire feed functions normally.
- There is no gas flow when the gun trigger is activated . The wire feeds and the arc voltage is present.
- The machine stops feeding wire while welding. When the gun trigger is released and pulled again, the wire feed starts.
- Rough wire feeding or the wire will not feed but the drive rolls are turning.
- No control of wire feed speed. Other machine functions are normal.
- There is no wire feed when the gun trigger is activated. Normal open circuit weld voltage is present and the gas solenoid...
- Poor arc striking with electrode sticking or blasting off.
- The arc is unstable and or “hunting”
- The weld bead is narrow or ropy. May have porosity with the electrode stubbing into the plate.
- The contact tip seizes in the gas diffuser.
