Symptoms Cause Procedure
No power, failure signal or device
malfunction
No connection or loose plug inside
device
Check and correct the connections
of all electrical plugs inside the
device
No wire feed (feeder motor running) Too low roller pressure Set the correct pressure
Incorrect roller groove diameter lead Install the correct guide roller
Dirty wire guide in the handle
Clean the wire liner
The electrode wire is blocked current Replace the contact tip
Irregular wire feed Damaged contact tip Replace the contact tip
The feed roller groove is dirty or
damaged
Clean the roller groove or replace
the roller
The wire spool rubs against the cover
walls welders
Secure the wire spool correctly
The Arc does not light Lack of proper ground terminal
clamp contact
Improve the ground terminal
contact
Damaged switch in MIG gun Replace the switch
Incorrect connection of the MIG
torch to the device
Check the condition of the electrical
connections handle, check that the
pins in the socket are not broken or
are not jamming
The Arc is too long and irregular Welding voltage too high Reduce welding voltage
Wire feed speed too low Increase wire feed speed
The Arc is too short Welding voltage too low Increase welding voltage
Wire feed speed too high Reduce wire feed speed
Displays after turning on the power
and the LEDs are off
No power supply Check the fuses on the connection
network
The fan is not working The fan has been blocked by a
folded cover
Straighten fan cover
Unsatisfactory weld quality with MIG
welding
Inadequate or poor quality materials
or consumables used,
Replace consumable parts. Change
the welding wire or gas cylinder for
materials adequate or higher quality
Shielding gas fl ows out of inade-
quate intensity.
Check gas supply hose, improve
hose connection with fi ttings and
condition of quick couplings Check
cylinder regulator
Unsatisfactory weld quality when
MMA welding, the electrode glues
to the welded material
Incorrect connection polarityweld-
ing wires
Connect the welding leads correctly
Damp electrode. Replace the electrode
The welder is powered by a power
generator or through a long one
extension cord with too small cable
cross section
Connect the device directly to the
mains
Unsatisfactory weld quality for TIG
welding
Check the quality of materials and
consumables used, especially the
electrode tungsten and shielding
gas
Replace consumable parts, replace
shielding gas with higher quality
Shielding gas does not fl ow or fl ows
with insuf fi cient intensity
Check cylinder regulator, hose gas
supply, improve hose connection
with fi ttings and condition of quick
couplings
11. TROUBLESHOOTING
Error code Description
OverTemp Overheat protection. Wait a few minutes until the device cools down to a temperature
that allows it to switch on again automatically. Do not disconnect the power supply during
this time, because the continuously operating fan cools the internal heat sinks of the
device in order to lower the temperature faster. After restarting, remember to limit welding
parameters for continued continuous operation of the device.
