  If the arc stops while cutting with your ALDI Welding System, try increasing the cutting speed. You might also need a larger air compressor to maintain the required pressure and airflow. Inspect and repair or replace any worn torch consumables. Additionally, allow the unit to cool for 15 minutes before resuming.

  To address dross build-up on parts cut by your ALDI Welding System, allow the material to cool before continuing. If the tool/material is building up heat, increase the cutting speed and/or reduce the current until the dross is minimized. Also, inspect and repair or replace any worn torch consumables.

  If you experience insufficient penetration with your ALDI Welding System, try slowing down the cutting speed. Adjust the torch tilt, and consider that several passes might be necessary if the metal is too thick. Also, inspect and repair or replace any worn torch consumables.

Why do the consumables wear quickly on my ALDI 60485?
- D
  Deborah DelacruzAug 27, 2025
  If the consumables of your ALDI Welding System wear quickly, it might be due to exceeding the unit's capability, so it's not recommended to continue cutting. Check the torch and consumables for proper assembly. You may also need a larger air compressor to maintain the required pressure and airflow if the air supply is inadequate or the pressure is too low.

What to do if sparks are shooting upward with my ALDI 60485?

  If sparks are shooting upward instead of down through the material when using your ALDI Welding System, increase the current. Keep the tip in contact with the workpiece. Check the earth clamp connections for a proper ground, and reduce the cutting speed.
