-       

Before the welding machines are dispatched from the factory, they have already been tested 

      and calibrated accurately. It is forbidden for anyone who is not authorized by our company to do 
      any change to the equipment!

-       

Maintenance course must be operated carefully. If any wire becomes flexible or is misplaced, it 

      maybe potential danger to user!

-       

Only professional maintenance staff that isauthorized by our company could overhaul the machine!

-       

Be sure to shut off the Main Input Power before doing any repair work on the welding machine!

-       

If there is any problem and there is no authorized professional maintenance personal on site, please 

      contact local agent or the distributor!

If there are some simple troubles with the welding machine, you can consult the following Chart:

the front panel connection is not good 

or damaged 

Repair or change the potentiometer 

The welding current displayed isn’t 

accordant with the actual value. 

The min value displayed isn’t

 

accordant with the actual value.  

Adjust potentiometer Imin on the 

power board. 

The max value displayed isn’t

accordant with the actual value.  

Adjust potentiometer Imax on the 

power board. 

10 

The penetration of molten pool is not 

enough. 

The welding current is adjusted too 

low 

Increase the welding current 

11
