Error list: 

Thermometer icon

 

– Device is overheating. Stop work until welder cools down. 

ALL 001

 

– Too low/Too high supply voltage 

ALL 002

 

– Short circuit between torch and ground cables. Please locate the fault and remowe the 

possible reason. 

ALL 003

 

– General overload. Please check if the wire feed speed or welding current isn’t set to 

high. 
 

Symptoms 

Possible cause 

Remedy

Contact tip is damaged 

Locking mechanism is not 
tighten 

Torch liner is stuck with debris  

Feeder roll type is wrong 

Contact tip diameter is wrong 

Clean or change roll 

Change contact tip 

Tighten the locking mechanism 

 

Clean or change the liner 

Mount appropriate roll 

Check the contact tip and 
change for a right one if needed 

Wire feed does not feed the wire 
(feeder motor is not working) 

Faulty feeding motor 

Control module failure 

Turn directly to the service 
centre 

Arc is not igniting  

Ground clamp not connected or 
connected improperly  

Polarization selector cable not 
connected 

Check the connection of the 
ground clamp 

Plug the selector to the 
appropriate socket 

Arc is too long and irregular 

Welding current is to high 

Wire feed is too slow 

Adjust the current value 

Change wire feed speed 

Arc is too short 

Welding current to low 

Wire feed to fast 

Adjust the current value 

Change wire feed speed 

ON/OFF button does not light up 

No electric supply 

Fuse failure 

Switch malfunction 

Check the power connections 

Replace the fuse 

Replace the switch
