COuRSE OF ACTION

The machine will not produce more
than 200 amps.

1. This may be normal operation. If

the output current exceeds 300
amps, an electronic protection
circuit will reduce the current to
less than 200 amps. The machine
will continue to produce this low
current until the protection circuit
is reset. Reset occurs when the
output load is removed.

2. Check the input voltage and input

voltage reconnect procedures.
See Input Voltage Reconnect
Procedure.

3. Check for loose or faulty welding

cables.

If all recommended possible areas of
misadjustment have been checked
and the problem persists, Contact
your local Authorized Field Service
Facility.

If for any reason you do not understand the test procedures or are unable to perform the tests/repairs safely, con-
tact your local authorized field service facility for technical troubleshooting assistance before you proceed.
