Trouble Remedy
No weld output. Check fuse F1, and replace if necessary (see Section 8-6).
Clean slip rings, and install new brushes if necessary (see Section 6-15).
Disconnect leads 21, 23, and 33 from brushes, and check continuity across slip rings. Replace rotor
if necessary.
Check resistance and connections of resistors R2 and R4; R2 and R4 are each 12 ohms ±10%. Re-
place resistor(s) if necessary. Adjust R2 and R4 according to Section 6-16.
Check resistance and connections of Fine Amperage Control R1; R1 is 0 to 30 ohms ±10%. Replace
R1 if necessary (see Section 3-1).
Disconnect leads 22 and 29 from SCR/integrated rectifier SR2, and check for continuity between leads
22 and 29. Replace exciter stator if necessary.
For units with optional remote control, check capacitor C5 for a short or open, and check for proper con-
nections. Replace C5 if necessary.
Check voltage regulator board PC2 and connections, and replace if necessary (see Section 6-9).
No or erratic weld output. Clean and tighten weld connections both inside and outside unit.
Check to make sure Ampere Ranges switch S5 is not between positions. Check continuity of S5, and
replace if necessary.
Check reactor AC-Z for signs of winding failure. Check continuity across windings, and check for proper
connections. Replace AC-Z if necessary.
Check resistance and connections of Fine Amperage control R1; R1 is 0 to 30 ohms ± 10%. Replace
R1 if necessary.
Disconnect leads 21, 23, and 33 from brushes, and check continuity across slip rings. Replace rotor
if necessary.
No or erratic DC weld output only. Check modular main rectifier SR1, and replace if necessary.
Check stabilizer DC-Z for signs of winding failure. Check continuity across windings, and check for
proper connections. Replace DC-Z if necessary.
Low or high weld output. Check engine speed, and adjust if necessary (see Section 8-5).
Adjust resistor R4 slider until 128 to 132 volts ac is obtained at 100 Hz receptacle RC4 (see Section
6-16).
Adjust resistor R2 slider until proper open-circuit-voltage is obtained at weld output terminals (see Sec-
tion 6-16).
Check resistance and connections of resistor R3 on suppressor R3, VR1 module; R3 is 1000 ohms ±
10%. Replace R3, VR1 module if necessary.
Check reactor AC-Z for signs of winding failure. Check continuity across windings, and check for proper
connections. Replace AC-Z if necessary.
Trouble Remedy
Reset circuit breakers CB1 and CB2. Effective with Serial No. KE629034, also reset circuit breakers
CB5 and CB7 (see Section 4-3).
Check receptacles RC1, RC2, RC3 for continuity and proper connections. Replace receptacle(s) if nec-
essary.
Clean slip rings, and install new brushes if necessary (see Section 6-15).
Check coil voltage and connections of control relay CR4. Check continuity of coil and condition of con-
tacts. Replace CR4 if necessary.
Check control transformer T1 for signs of winding failure. Check continuity across windings, and check
for proper connections. Check primary and secondary voltages. Replace T1 if necessary.
Disconnect leads 21, 23, and 33 from brushes, and check continuity across slip rings. Replace rotor
if necessary.
Disconnect leads 48 and 49 from voltage regulator board PC2, and check continuity between leads 48
and 49. Disconnect leads 50, 51, 52, and 53 from stator. Check continuity between leads 50 and 51,
and 52 and 53. Replace stator if necessary.
Clean slip rings, and install new brushes if necessary (see Section 6-15).
Check coil voltage and connections of control relay CR3. Check continuity of coil and condition of con-
tacts. Replace CR3 if necessary.
Check voltage regulator board PC2 and connections, and replace if necessary.
High auxiliary power output. Check engine speed, and adjust if necessary.
Check voltage regulator board PC2 and connections, and replace if necessary (see Section 6-9).
Trouble Remedy
Check receptacle RC4 for continuity and proper connections. Replace receptacle if necessary.
Disconnect leads 90, 91, 92, and 93 from stator. Check continuity between leads 90 and 91, and 92 and
93. Replace stator if necessary.

weld speed.
Check continuity and connections of current transformer CT1, and replace if necessary.
Check coil voltage and connections of control relay CR2. Check continuity of coil and condition of con-
tacts. Replace CR2 if necessary.
Check resistance at throttle solenoid TS1 terminals. With plunger out, resistance is less than 1 ohm.
With plunger bottomed, resistance is 17 ohms ±10%.
Check idle board/module PC1 and connections, and replace if necessary (see Section 6-5).
