Poor welding properties
(heavy spattering)
Cause: Incorrect electrode polarity
Remedy: Reverse the polarity - follow the manufacturer´s instructions
Cause: Poor earth connection
Remedy: Fix earth clamp directly onto the work-piece
Cause: Unfavourable set-up settings for the selected welding process
Remedy: In the set-up menu, optimise the settings for the selected welding process
TIG welding
Tungsten electrode melts off; tungsten inclusions in the base metal during ignition
Cause: Incorrect electrode polarity
Remedy: Connect TIG welding torch to "- pole"
Cause: Wrong shielding gas, no shielding gas
Remedy: Use inert shielding gas (argon)
Cause: Wrong welding process selected
Remedy: Select the "TIG welding" or "TIG pulsed arc welding" process (TP 1500
TIG)
Troubleshooting
TP 1500, TP 1500
RC, TP 1500 TIG
