50% duty cycle at 200 amp output. Duty cycle is based on a 10 minute period. Therefore, the welder can be loaded at 200 amperes for 5 minutes out of each 10 minute period. Higher duty cycles can be used at lower currents; see rating plate information. - Page 13 1. The fan motor has sealed ball bearings which requires no service. 2. In dusty locations dirt may clog the air channels causing the welder to run hot. Under these conditions carefully blow out the welder at regular intervals. 3. Keep the electrode and work cable connection tight.
- Page 14 Fan motor can be tested on 115V line; with welder on, voltage across fan motor should be approximately 115V. 4. Check for loose or hot connec- tions and tighten. 5. Blow out welder with low pres- sure. 6. Carefully clean in naptha.
- Page 15 C. Variable or sluggish welding. D. Welder wonʼt shut off. E. Polarity switch wonʼt turn. (CONTINUED) 1. Poor work or electrode terminal connection. 2. Current too low. 3. Low line voltage. 4. Welding leads too small. 5. Old and badly frayed welding cables.
