Symptom

Possible solution

The overheating LED is on.

1. Check the welding current and welding time. Refer to the manual, and 
operate according to the duty cycle requirement.
2. Check the running status of the fan when welding. If the fan does not 
work, check if the power supply of the fan is 220V: If the power supply is 
normal, check the fan; if the power supply is abnormal, check the 
connecting cable of the power supply.
3. Replace the thermal switch if it is damaged.

The power LED is off, and there is no output 
current.

1. Check if the fan works. If it does not work, it indicates that the power 
cord is not in good contact.
2. If the fan works, it indicates that the control PCB PK-131 inside the 
machine fails.

There  is  no  response  when  pushing  the 
torch trigger, and the protection LED is off.

1. Check if the gun trigger is in good contact.
2. Check if the welding torch is well connected to the European connector, 
and check the control jack of the European connector. 
3. The wire feed PCB PH-119 inside the machine fails.

When  torch  trigger  is  pressed,  wire  feeder 
works  and  gas  comes  out,  but  there  is  no 
output current, and the protection LED is off.

1. Check if the cable to the workpiece is in good contact.
2. Check if the quick plug is connected to correct quick socket.
3. Check the welding torch for damage.
4. The control PCB PK-131 inside the machine fails.

There  is  output  current  when  pushing  the 
torch trigger to feed gas, but the wire feeder 
does not feed wire.

1. Check the wire feeder for clogging or damage.
2. Check the contact tip of welding torch for clogging or damage.
3. The wire feed PCB PH-119 inside the machine fails.

Welding  can  be  carried  out  when  pushing 
the  torch  trigger,  but  the  voltage  cannot  be 
adjusted.

1. Check if the voltage feedback wire inside the machine is in good 
condition.
2. The control PCB PK-131 inside the machine fails.

Welding current is unstable.

1. Check the pressure arm on the wire feeder for proper pressure.
2. Check if the drive roll matches the wire size being used.
3. Check the contact tip of the welding torch for wear. Replace it and 
tighten it if necessary.
4. Check the welding wire for good quality.
5. Check if the torch cable is too twisted.
6. Check if the quick plug is loose.
