What to do if the electrode is freezing to work with a Hobart Welding System?
If the electrode freezes to the work, increase the amperage setting. You can also try increasing the arc length and ensure that you are using dry, properly stored electrodes.
Why does my Hobart Welding System have an erratic arc with excessive spatter?
An erratic arc with excessive spatter may occur if you are not using dry, properly stored electrodes. Shorten the arc length or reduce the amperage setting to resolve the issue.
How to fix erratic weld current on Hobart Welding System?
To fix erratic weld current, clean and tighten all weld cable connections.
What to do if the fan does not run but weld output is okay on a Hobart STICKMATE LX Welding System?
Ensure that nothing is blocking the movement of the fan. If the fan does not run freely, replace the fan motor.
How to reduce noise and vibration from the shunt block of a Hobart STICKMATE LX Welding System?
To reduce noise and vibration from the shunt block, lubricate the shunt block and/or tighten the adjustment screws.
