Be sure power cord is plugged in and that receptacle is receiving input power.
No weld output; ready light (LED) On.
Check and secure loose weld cable(s) into receptacle(s).
Check and correct poor connection of work clamp to workpiece.
No weld output; high temperature light
(LED) On.
Unit overheated causing thermal shutdown. Allow unit to cool with fan On (see Section 3-2).
Reduce duty cycle or amperage.
Check and correct blocked/poor airflow to unit (see Section 3-4).
No weld output; high temperature light
(LED) Flashing.
Turn Power Off and back On again. If light continues to flash, check with Factory Authorized
Service Agent.
No weld output. Blue light (LED)
flashes continuously, yellow light
(LED) off.
Line voltage to high or to low. Line voltage must be within ±10%.
Unit needs to rest. Cycle power off and back on. If problem is not corrected, contact Factory
Authorized Service Agent.
No weld output. Blue light (LED) flashes
3 times repeatedly, yellow light (LED) off.
Remote trigger left on. Turn off remote trigger, wait 5 seconds, and restart operation.

Check for and remove anything blocking fan movement.
Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check fan motor and control circuitry.
Stick welding problems: Hard starts;
poor welding characteristics; unusual
spattering.
Use proper type and size of electrode.
Check and reverse electrode polarity; check and correct poor connections.
Make sure a remote control is not connected.
TIG welding problems: Wandering arc;
hard starts; poor welding characteris-
tics; spattering problems.
Use proper type and size of tungsten.
Use properly prepared tungsten.
Check and reverse electrode polarity.
TIG welding problems: Tungsten
electrode oxidizing and not remaining
bright after welding.
Shield weld zone from drafts.
Check for correct type shielding gas.
Check and tighten gas fittings.
