Why does the pilot arc continue while cutting with my Eastwood Welding System?
If the pilot arc continues while cutting with your Eastwood Welding System, a faulty reed switch may be the cause; replace the reed switch if it does not close. Another possibility is a faulty arc gap on the bottom board; clean and adjust the arc gap as necessary. Additionally, the bottom board itself could be faulty and require replacement.
Why does my Eastwood VERSA-CUT 40 turn on but the power light does not illuminate?
If your Eastwood Welding System turns on but the power light doesn't illuminate, there could be an open or loose connection in the power light circuit; repair any loose connections. The top board might be faulty and need replacement. Alternatively, the power indicator light itself could be faulty and require replacement.
Why is there no delay in air flow shut off when the trigger is released on my Eastwood VERSA-CUT 40 Welding System?
If there is no delay in air flow shut off when the trigger is released on your Eastwood Welding System, the bottom board may be faulty and needs replacement.
