TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

detailed in the beginning of this manual.

CAUTION

If for any reason you do not understand the test procedures or are unable to perform the test/repairs safely, con-
tact the Lincoln Electric Service Department for electrical troubleshooting assistance before you proceed. Call
1-888-935-3877.

PROBLEMS

(SYMPTOMS)

POSSIBLE AREAS OF

MISADJUSTMENT(S)

RECOMMENDED

COURSE OF ACTION

OUTPUT PROBLEMS

Major

Physical

or

Electrical

Damage is Evident.

1. Contact

your

local

Lincoln

Authorized

Field

Service

Facility.

1. Contact The Lincoln Electric

Service Dept. 1-888-935-3877.

No weld output and no auxiliary
power. Engine runs normally.

1. Check the brushes for wear and

proper contact to the rotor slip
rings.

1. Perform the

Rotor Voltage

Test.

2. Check for the presence of

12VDC (at the pc board) from
lead #216 to frame ground.
This is the “flashing” voltage
and is present only when the
Start, Run, Stop switch S3 is in
the “Start” position.

If the 12

VDC is missing check the leads,
switches

and

connections

associated with the lead #216.
See

Wiring Diagram.

Check for the presence of 12
VDC (at the pc board) from lead
#224 to frame ground. This is
the supply voltage to the board
and is present when the engine
is running and the S3 switch is
in the “Run” position.

If the

12VDC is missing check the
leads, switches and connec-
tions associated with the lead
#224. See

Wiring Diagram

.

3. If Rotor Voltage Test is normal,

then

preform

the

Rotor

Resistance Test.

4. If the Rotor Voltage Test is NOT

normal, perform the

Auxiliary

and Field Winding Voltage
Test.

Then check the Field

Diode Bridge (D2) and the Field
Capacitor (C1). Replace if nec-
essary. If the Field Bridge and
Field Capacitor are good, then
the Printed Circuit Board may
be faulty. Replace.
