I bought my sandstone Orion impulse second hand. I keep getting "welder is currently in a idle state" message on the screen. I'm beginning to think I bought a welder that doesnt work.Please give me some advice. Thank you, Joan Shumaker

The message "welder is currently in an idle state" for the SUNSTONE M Series Orion impulse welder means that the welder is powered on, but the welding functions are disabled. This occurs when the play/pause button is set to pause mode, showing the pause symbol.
