What to do if my Hobart Welding Products Handler 190 has no weld output, but the wire feeds?
If your Hobart Welding Products Welding System has no weld output but the wire feeds, ensure the work clamp is connected to establish good metal-to-metal contact. Consider replacing the contact tip. Verify that polarity connections are correct. Also, check the thumbscrew securing the gun end to the feed head adapter and tighten it if necessary.
Why does my Hobart Welding Products Handler 190 have no weld output, wire won't feed, but the fan motor runs?
If your Hobart Welding Products Welding System exhibits no weld output and the wire doesn't feed, but the fan motor continues to run, it might be due to thermostat TP1 being open (overheating). Allow the fan to run with the gun trigger switch off to cool the unit, which should close the thermostat. Check the Voltage range switch position and ensure it “clicks” into the detent at the desired range setting. Make sure the Spool Gun/MIG switch is in the correct mode. Also, ensure the gun trigger leads are secure.
How to fix Hobart Welding Products Welding System with no weld output, wire feed, and fan?
If your Hobart Welding Products Welding System has no weld output, the wire doesn't feed, and the fan doesn't run, ensure the power cord plug is securely in the receptacle. Replace the building line fuse or reset the circuit breaker if it's open. Place the Power switch in the On position. Reset the welding power source supplementary protector.
