How to troubleshoot a LOTOS Welding System torch that does not work?
If the LOTOS Welding System torch isn't working, first, ensure the power switch is turned 'ON'. Then, check the air supply to make sure it is not compromised. Finally, verify that the ground clamp and cable are securely attached to the workpiece or steel table.
Why do consumables wear out quickly on my LOTOS LT3500?
If consumables are wearing out quickly on your LOTOS Welding System, consider the following: First, ensure you are not exceeding the unit's capability by using material that is too thick; increase the cutting angle to prevent blowback into the torch tip. Second, check that the torch is assembled correctly. Third, make sure the air supply is adequate by checking the air filter and increasing air pressure if it's too low. Lastly, verify that the air compressor is working correctly.
How to fix insufficient penetration with LOTOS Welding System?
If you're experiencing insufficient penetration with your LOTOS Welding System, first check if the torch is tilted too much and make tilt adjustments. If the metal is too thick, several passes may be necessary. Also, inspect the torch parts for wear and repair or replace worn parts.
What to do if there is dross build-up on cuts with my LOTOS LT3500?
If dross is building up on parts of your cuts with the LOTOS Welding System, it could be due to a few reasons. One reason is that the tool and material are building up heat; allow the material to cool down before continuing to cut. Another cause could be that the cutting speed is too slow or the current is too high; increase the speed or reduce the current until dross is minimized. Lastly, inspect the torch parts for wear and repair or replace them as needed.
