5.04 Welding Problems
FAULT
CAUSE
REMEDY
A. Undercut.
1. Welding arc voltage
too high.
a. Reduce voltage by reducing the voltage
selection switch position or increase the
wire feed speed.
2. Incorrect torch
angle
a. Adjust angle
3. Excessive heat
input
a. Increase the torch travel speed and/or
reduce welding current by reducing the
voltage selection switch position or
reducing the wirefeed speed.
4. Weld speed too fast
a. Reduce weld speed.
B. Lack of penetration. 1. Welding current too
low
a. Increase welding current by increasing
wire feed speed and increasing voltage
selection switch position.
2. Joint preparation too
narrow or gap too
tight
a. Increase joint angle or gap
3. Shielding gas
incorrect
a. Change to a gas which gives higher
penetration
4. Weld speed too fast
a. Reduce weld speed.
C. Lack of fusion.
1. Voltage too low
a. Increase voltage by increasing voltage
selection switch position.
2. Weld speed too fast
a. Reduce weld speed.
D. Excessive spatter. 1. Voltage too high
a. Lower voltage by reducing the voltage
selection switch or increase wirespeed
control.
2. Voltage too low
a. Raise voltage by increasing the voltage
selection switch or reduce wirespeed
control.
3. Weld speed too fast
a. Reduce weld speed.
E. Irregular weld
shape.
1. Incorrect voltage and
current settings.
Convex, voltage too
low. Concave, voltage
too high.
a. Adjust voltage and current by adjusting
the voltage selection switch and the
wirespeed control.
2. Wire is wandering
a. Replace contact tip
3. Incorrect shielding
gas
a. Check shielding gas.
4. Insufficient or
excessive heat input
a. Adjust the wire speed control or the
voltage selection switch.
5. Weld speed too fast
a. Reduce weld speed.
