CAUTION
The welding arc frequently “pops

normal and auxiliary output
voltage appears normal.
The fine current control
rheostat may be set too low.
Try increasing the fine current

If a remote control is being
used, try switching to local
control. The remote control
unit may be faulty.
Check welding cables for
damaged or poor connections.
Welding cable may be
excessively long, too small, or
coiled. Try using a set of short
test cables of adequate size.

and slip rings. If necessary,
perform the Brush and Slip
Ring Service Procedure.
