17 Troubleshooting
A list of the possible failures of a SKYLINE KMP
generator is reported here below with the indication of
the possible causes.
A) The power source does not weld correctly. Check
that:
•
the selector used to choose the type of welding is in
the right position
•
the polarity in MIG/MAG welding is the one required
by the type of wire being used.
B) If when starting the machine the green LED ‘L1’ on
the front panel is on but the machine does not weld,
check that:
•
check torch cable, power sockets, trolley/power
source extension and work return lead for integrity
C) If the machine stops and the yellow LED ‘L2’, when
welding, shows for over 4 minutes, check that:
•
the air flow for the cooling of the components is not
hindered by dust or foreign objects placed in the
vicinity of the air vents
•
the fan is working properly
D) It the machine works in MMA mode only, i.e. the red
LED ‘L3’ on the front panel does not show in MIG/MAG
mode, but in MMA mode only, check that:
•
the electric contact of the torch trigger is properly
closed
E) Irregular welding:
•
make sure there is no draft while welding
•
make sure the gas flows regularly by checking gas
regulator, solenoid valve and connecting hoses
F) The wire feeding is irregular. Check:
•
the wire spooling
•
that the wire feed rollers are suited to the wire
diameter being used
•
that the torch inlet is aligned with the wire feed roller
spline
•
the torch liner making sure it is suited to the the
length and diameter of the wire being used; if
necessary, replace it
•
the spool holder brake; if necessary, replace it
G) The wire sticks to the contact tip each time the
welding is stopped:
•
adjust the power delay parameter (BURN-BACK). If
the time is too long, the wire will stick to the contact
tip; if it is too short, the wire will stick to the weld pool
