Excessive Fall Of Voltage When The Load Is Connected; Single Phase Receptacle Out Of Balance While At Idling; Insufficient Welding Current; The Battery Runs Down Frequently - Thermal Arc Raider 10,000 Pro K Owner's Manual

3.03 Excessive Fall of Voltage When The Load is Connected

PROBABLE CAUSE
The engine does not maintain the
nominal speed.

3.04 Single Phase Receptacle Out Of Balance While at Idling

PROBABLE CAUSE
A capacitor of one phase is
disconnected or is no longer
working properly.
PROBABLE CAUSE
The engine does not obtain
maximum speed.
One phase on the capacitors or
on the rectifiers is disconnected.

3.06 The Battery Runs down Frequently

PROBABLE CAUSE
Battery defective: does not
maintain the load.
Engine charge circuit defective

Check whether the fine current
control is functioning.
Check engine fuel system.
Check with an ammeter whether

load of the generator.
CONTROLS
Check the connections at the
terminals of the capacitors. See
capacitor testing in the the
Troubleshooting Guide.

3.05 Insufficient Welding Current

CONTROLS
Check the Fine Current Control
function.
Check engine throttle linkage,
Fuel and electrical systems.
Check that all the internal
connections have a sound
electrical connection.
CONTROLS
Check for shorted battery cell.
Test charge circuit according to
engine manual.
Replace or repair Fine Current
control assembly.
Refer to Engine manual for
testing fuel system.
