Troubleshooting Chart - We l d e r
Possible Cause(s)
1 . No power at receptacle
2 . Broken or damaged power
c a b l e
1 . Inadequate current at electrode
2 . Poor connections at welder
1 . Accidental contact with work
p i e c e
2 . Current leakage caused by
moist clothing or work area
1 . Use of extension cord
2 . Electrode diameter too large
3. Overloaded circuit
1 . Wrong type of electrode
2 . Electrode diameter too large
3 . Work piece not properly
g r o u n d e d
4 . Heavy loads making power line
voltage low
Troubleshooting Chart - We l d s
Possible Cause(s)
1 . Inconsistent travel speed
2 . Output amp setting incorrect
1 . Travel speed too fast
2 . Arc length too short
3 . Output amp setting too high
1 . Inconsistent travel speed
2 . Output amp setting too low
3 . Electrode diameter too large
1 . Arc length short
2 . Amp setting low
Damp electrodes
Corrective Action
1 . Check circuit fuse or circuit breaker
2 . Power cable requires service
1 . Check work clamp, cable and connection to work piece.
Check electrode cable and clamp
2 . Check all welder external connections
1 . Avoid contact with work piece
2 . Make sure clothing and work area are dry
1 . If possible, relocate welder to avoid use of extension cord. If
relocation of welder is not possible, use thicker (lower gauge
number) extension cord
2 . Use smaller diameter electrode
3. Welder requires a d e d i c a t e d 115V circuit
1 . Verify that electrode is for alternating current (AC) use
2 . Use smaller diameter electrode
3 . Verify proper grounding. (No paint, varnish or corrosion)
4 . Run welder on dedicated 115V circuit
Corrective Action
1 . Carefully watch and control the width of the molten weld
b e a d
2 . Adjust output amp setting or change to smaller diameter
e l e c t r o d e
1 . Watch orange molten weld puddle and control bead width
2 . Practice running electrode across workpiece with welder
O F F
3 . Reduce output amp setting
1 . Decrease and maintain constant travel speed
2 . Increase output amp setting or change to smaller diameter
e l e c t r o d e
3 . Recommend either 1/16 in. or 5/64 in. diameter electrodes
1 . Lift electrode to correct arc length as soon as arc is struck
2 . Increase amp setting or change to smaller diameter
e l e c t r o d e
Use dry electrodes and store in dry location
