Why does the input breaker keep tripping on my Lincoln Electric POWER MIG IM736-D Welding System?
- S
  Sarah BriggsAug 13, 2025
  If the input fuses keep blowing or the input breaker keeps tripping on your Lincoln Electric Welding System, it could be due to the welding procedure drawing too much output current, or the duty cycle being too high. To resolve this, reduce the output current, duty cycle, or both. Alternatively, there may be internal damage to the power source, in which case you should contact an authorized Lincoln Electric Service facility.

What to do if the Lincoln Electric Welding System machine output is low?
- G
  gloweryAug 17, 2025
  If the machine output of your Lincoln Electric Welding System is low, resulting in 'cold' welds with rounded or bumped-up beads, there are several potential causes: * The input voltage may be incorrect. Check and ensure it matches the nameplate rating and reconnect panel configuration. * The settings for wire feed speed and voltage may be incorrect for the process being used. Make sure they are properly set. * The output polarity may be incorrect for the process being used. Verify and correct the polarity. * There may be loose or faulty connections in the welding cables and gun assembly. Inspect and fix any connection issues.

How to fix wire bird nesting while welding with Lincoln Electric POWER MIG IM736-D?
- A
  Anne PearsonAug 20, 2025
  If the wire is bird nesting while welding with your Lincoln Electric Welding System, it could be due to several reasons: * The torch liner conduit may not be fully inserted, preventing it from touching the inner black plastic wire guide. Ensure it's properly inserted. * The inner black plastic wire guide may be worn out and needs replacement. * The Push-Pull torch drive rolls may be set too tight. Refer to the owner's manual for the proper setting.

What to do if wire burns back to the tip during welding with Lincoln Electric POWER MIG IM736-D?
- J
  Johnathan MacdonaldAug 25, 2025
  If, during welding, the wire continues to burn back to the tip on your Lincoln Electric Welding System, consider the following: * Check that the spindle brake is not set too tight. * If using a POWER MIG 300, ensure the drive rolls are not set too tight; the tension arm should be set at 1 to 1-1/2. * Clean or replace the contact tip.

Why doesn't the gas flow when I pull the trigger on my Lincoln Electric Welding System?
- S
  shawn31Aug 28, 2025
  If gas does not flow when the gun trigger is pulled on your Lincoln Electric Welding System, ensure the gas supply is properly connected and turned 'on'. If the gas solenoid actuates (clicks) when the trigger is pulled, there may be a restriction in the gas supply line. Additionally, the gun cable assembly may be faulty and require checking or replacement.

What to do if Lincoln Electric POWER MIG IM736-D has output voltage when the gun trigger is not pulled?
- J
  James RandolphSep 1, 2025
  If output voltage and wire feed are present when the gun trigger is not pulled on your Lincoln Electric Welding System, check the Weld Mode to ensure the unit is in a CV Mode and not a CC Mode. If the issue persists, remove the gun assembly from the machine; if the problem is resolved, the gun assembly is faulty and needs repair or replacement.

How to troubleshoot a Lincoln Electric Welding System that will not power up?
- L
  Lawrence PerrySep 9, 2025
  If your Lincoln Electric Welding System will not power up (no lights), ensure that the power switch is in the "ON" position. Also, check the input voltage selection; if it was made improperly, power down the system and check the input voltage, then reconnect according to the diagram on the reconnect cover.
