2Fuse F1 (See Parts List For Rating)

Insert new fuse into cover, and in- stall fuse with cover by pressing and turning cover clockwise.

3 Circuit Breaker CB1

If CB1 opens, the gun drive motor and contactor will not operate, but gas flows when trigger is pulled. The gun drive motor operates in the Jog mode with CB1 open.

Check for blocked gun liner.

Check for jammed wire, binding drive gear or misaligned drive rolls in feeder. Correct problem.

Allow cooling period and manually reset breaker. Close and latch door.

6-12. Water Flow Switch (Optional For Water-Cooled Models)

The water flow switch protects the gun from overheating. If coolant flow rate drops below 1 qt/min, the water flow switch opens and stops the welding wire from feeding. See Section 6-13for remedies to this trouble.
