FAULTS

 

 
 

 
FAULT: 

 
Too little welding effect  
The welding seam forms a bead. 

PROBABLE CAUSE: 

 
1.  One of the three fuses in the main switch is not 

working (one phase is missing). 

2.  The welding voltage is too low.  
 

Switch one setting higher. 

 

The wire feed is blocking. 

1.  The inlet nozzle and the wire are not in alignment 

with each other. 

2.  The reel of wire is too taut, the wire must come off 

the reel evenly. 

3.  The inlet or contact tip is worn out or is blocked up.
4.  The welding wire is not clean or it is rusty. It could 

also be of an inferior quality. 

5.  The pressure roller has to be tightened. 
 

Spatter 

1.  The wire feed is too fast for the voltage setting. 
2  Worn out contact tip. 
 

Porous weld.  
A cone is formed when spot welding 

1.  Insufficient gas - not enough pressure or the bottle 

is empty. 

2.  Contact tip is blocked up. 
3.  Leakage - air is pumped in and mixes with the 

shielding gas. 

 

The arc does not look normal, and there is a lot of 
spatter 

1.  The material is dirty, underseal or paint. 
 

The wire keeps sticking in the contact tip and is very 
slow 

1.  The wire can be malformed.  
 

The damaged wire should be cut off, pulled out 
and replaced. The pressure on the wire feed roller 
should be checked. 

2.  Worn out contact tip. 
 

No welding voltage 

1.  Working voltage interrupted due to overloading of 

the transformer. Automatic switch on after cooling 
(15-30 min.).
