What to do if my Hobart Welding Accessories auto-lens is not switching?

If your Hobart Welding Accessories auto-lens stays light and does not darken when welding or cutting, stop welding or cutting immediately. Ensure the lens is on and clean the lens cover and sensors of any obstructions. Make sure the sensors are facing the arc; angles of 45 degrees or more may prevent the arc light from reaching the sensors. For XVS models, review sensitivity recommendations and adjust sensitivity if possible.

How to fix switching or flickering in Hobart Welding Accessories auto-lens?

If your Hobart Welding Accessories auto-lens darkens and lightens while welding or cutting, ensure the arc sensors aren't blocked from direct arc light. Check the lens cover for dirt and spatter that may be blocking the sensors. Increasing the lens delay to 0.1 – 0.3 seconds might reduce switching. For XVS models, review sensitivity settings and increase sensitivity if possible.
