System Maintenance

Section 5
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Power Supply
This system has been designed to be essentially maintenance free.
The only recommended maintenance is to blow out the power supply once a year. Dirt, grinding dust and other contami-
nates can accumulate over time and they deteriorate the power supply's cooling performance.
If the unit is located in a dirty environment the unit should be blown out more frequently.
Welding Tool
Typically, most trouble stems from the stud gun. The stud gun should be serviced once every quarter. Monthly service may
be required if use is exceptionally heavy. Please refer to the stud gun service manual for maintenance guidelines and instruc-
tions.
Cables
Cables are also a frequent source trouble. Users often drag the power supply around by the cables. This can damage cables.
Whenever gun service is performed, the cables should be visually inspected for worn / damaged insulation or fraying wire.
If the cables are damaged they should be repaired to prevent any degradation of weld quality.
BUILT IN EQUIPMENT SAFETY
A fault in the welding power supply can create a potentially dangerous condtion. The microprocessor continually monitors
the system for faults and shuts the unit off when one is detected.
This is done for operator and equipment safety purposes.
The unit can be restarted, but will shut down again as soon as the fault condition is detected. The unit must be repaired.
