Check and replace line fuse(s) if necessary, or reset circuit breaker (see Section 3-12).
Check continuity of Power switch S1, and replace if necessary (see Section 6-2).
Check coil voltage and connections of contactor W. Check continuity of coil and condition of contacts.
Replace if necessary (see Section 6-2).
Check control transformer T2 for proper connections and for signs of winding failure. Check continuity
across windings. Check secondary voltage. Replace T2 if necessary (see Section 6-2).
No weld output, power switch light PL1 Unit overheated, allow unit to cool (see Section 3-2). NOTE: When unit has cooled, fan starts and
on, but fan off. weld output is present at the weld output terminals and/or at the electrode.
Check coil voltage and connections of contactor W. Check continuity of coil and condition of contacts.
Replace W if necessary (see Section 6-2).
If unit is cold and Power switch light PL1 is on, check continuity of thermostats TP1, TP2 and TP3.
Thermostats should be normally closed. Replace any thermostats found to be open (see Section 6-2).
No weld output, but fan on. Clean and tighten all weld connections (see Section 7-1).
Check rectifier SR1 for open diodes and replace SR1 if necessary (see Section 6-2).
Check coil voltage and connections of contactor W. Check continuity of coil and condition of contacts.
Replace if necessary (see Section 6-2).
Check main transformer T1 for proper connections and for signs of winding failure. Check continuity
across windings. Check secondary voltage. Replace T1 if necessary (see Section 6-2).

Check for proper input power connections (see Section 3-12).
Check for open line fuse(s), and replace if necessary (see Section 3-12).
Select correct size weld cables (see Sections 3-7 and 3-8).
Check rectifier SR1 for open diodes and replace SR1 if necessary (see Section 6-2).
Check coil voltage and connections of contactor W. Check continuity of coil and condition of contacts.
Replace if necessary (see Section 6-2).
Check main transformer T1 for proper connections and for signs of winding failure. Check continuity
across windings. Check secondary voltage. Replace T1 if necessary (see Section 6-2).
Erratic or improper weld output. Check for proper input power connections (see Section 3-12).
Use proper size and type weld cables (see Sections 3-7 and 3-8).
Check rectifier SR1 for open diodes and replace SR1 if necessary (see Section 6-2).
Check coil voltage and connections of contactor W. Check continuity of coil and condition of contacts.
Replace if necessary (see Section 6-2).
Check main transformer T1 for proper connections and for signs of winding failure. Check continuity
across windings. Check secondary voltage. Replace T1 if necessary (see Section 6-2).

Check rectifier SR1 for shorted diodes and replace SR1 if necessary (see Section 6-2).
Fuse F1 opens repeatedly Check for proper input power connections (see Section 3-12).
Check control transformer T2 for proper connections and for signs of winding failure. Check continuity
across windings. Check secondary voltage. Replace T2 if necessary (see Section 6-2).
Check contactor W for shorted coil. Replace W if necessary (see Section 6-2).
Fan not operating and/or over heating. Check for and remove anything blocking fan movement.
Check coil voltage and connections of fan motor FM, and replace if necessary (see Section 6-2).
