What to do if my Hobart IronMan 240 has no weld output but wire feeds?
If your Hobart Welding System isn't producing any weld output but the wire is feeding, ensure the work clamp has good metal-to-metal contact. Also, inspect the connections at the welder's output terminals. It may also be necessary to replace the contact tip.
Why does the wire feeding stop during welding with my Hobart IronMan 240?
If your Hobart Welding System's wire feeding stops during welding, try these steps: First, straighten the gun cable. Then, adjust the drive roll pressure and readjust the hub tension. If these steps don't work, consider having a Factory Authorized Service Agent check the drive motor. Also, ensure the gun plug is securely in the receptacle, and inspect the leads and trigger switch.
How to fix a Hobart IronMan 240 with no weld output and no wire feed?
If your Hobart Welding System has no weld output and the wire isn't feeding, make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the receptacle. Check the power switch and replace it if needed. Also, inspect the gun plug in the receptacle and repair the leads, or replace the trigger switch. Finally, replace the building line fuse or reset the circuit breaker if it's open.
Why is the wire speed low, high, or erratic on my Hobart IronMan 240 Welding System?
If your Hobart Welding System has low, high, or erratic wire speed, try readjusting the front panel settings. You might also need to change to the correct size drive roll or readjust the drive roll pressure.
How to increase low weld output on a Hobart Welding System?
If your Hobart Welding System has low weld output, ensure the unit is connected to the proper input voltage or check for low line voltage.
