Solution
• Go to a
Center to repair the welding machine.
• Go to a
Center to repair the welding machine.
• Set the cable in a position that will not make
contact with the welder machine housing.
Go to a
Center to repair the welding machine.
• Keep the cables separated.
• Replace the fuse with other with the capacity
adequate to the welding machine amperes.
• Connect as shown in the Instructions Manual.
• Adjust the input current into the rated value or
increase the main supply capacity.
• Increase the cable gauge in the welding machine
to get a solid connection between the ground cable
and the work piece.
• Double-check there is output connection in the
converter.
• Go to a
Center to repair the welding machine.
• Stop the operation. Star again after the winding
has cooled down.
• Go to a
Center to repair the welding machine.
• Replace the cooling fan.
• Connect accordingly with the Instructions Manual.
• Double-check the input energy switch, fuse and
input cable.
• Set the switch in the ON position.
• Use a higher gauge cable.
• Go to a
Center to repair the welding machine.
• Configure the connections on the connection
Board to match with the voltage to which the
welding machine will be connected.
• Go to a
Center to repair the welding machine.
• Check the cable to solve the fault.
