    What to do if my HBS Welding System shows a continuously red display 'Er'?
    • D
      Dennis NelsonAug 17, 2025
      If the HBS Welding System displays a continuous red 'Er' message, it indicates a discharge relay control issue. Try switching the stud welding unit off, waiting a few seconds, and then switching it back on. If the unit remains locked, switch it off and contact the responsible service department.

    Why does the gun not lift on my HBS Welding System?
    • L
      Latoya McculloughAug 31, 2025
      If the gun of your HBS Welding System does not lift, it could be due to the lift not being adjusted properly; in this case, modify the set parameters. Another cause could be a short circuit of the solenoid circuit of the gun, in which case replace the control cable-connector, control cable and solenoid. It could also be that the solenoid is defective and needs to be replaced.

    Why is the light signal of the primary switch not lighting on my HBS Welding System?
    • D
      donald47Sep 5, 2025
      If the light signal of the primary switch on your HBS Welding System does not light up, it could be due to a defective primary outlet, which should be replaced. Alternatively, the mains cable might be broken and would need replacement.

    Why is there no LED display at the front of my HBS Welding System?
    • S
      santoskennethSep 7, 2025
      If there is no LED display at the front of your HBS Welding System, it could be due to a defective fuse F4 10 AT. Replace the mains fuse F4 on the front plate of the stud welding unit. Alternatively, the leads might be interrupted, in which case they should be replaced.
