Engine speed may need adjustment. Check position of Process/Contactor switch.
What causes low open-circuit voltage on my Miller Big Blue 800?
Engine speed may need adjustment. Check position of Process/Contactor switch.
What to do if my Miller Inverter engine cranks but does not start?
First, check the fuel level. The optional low fuel shutdown stops the engine if the fuel level is low. Reset supplementary protector CB13. Check the battery and replace if necessary.
What to do if my Miller Big Blue 800 engine starts but stops when the Engine Control switch is released?
Check the oil level. The automatic shutdown system stops the engine if oil pressure is too low or the engine temperature is too high.
Why does my Miller Big Blue 800 battery discharge between uses?
Turn the Engine Control switch S1 off when the unit is not running. Clean the top of the battery with baking soda and water solution, then rinse with clear water. Recharge or replace the battery if necessary. Periodically recharge the battery (approximately every 3 months).
What to do if my Miller Inverter engine does not run at idle speed?
Turn the Process/Contactor switch to any position but Remote-TIG. Allow circuit breaker CB14 to reset.
What to do if my Miller Big Blue 800 Inverter engine slowly stopped and cannot be restarted?
Check the fuel level. Check the engine air and fuel filters.
How to troubleshoot a Miller Big Blue 800 engine that is hard to start in cold weather?
Use the starting aid switch. Keep the battery in good condition and store it in a warm area off a cold surface. Use fuel formulated for cold weather (diesel fuel can gel in cold weather). Use the correct grade oil for cold weather.
Why does my Miller Inverter voltage/amperage control not work in Stick mode?
Place the Ampere Range switch in the lower range. The Voltage/Amperage control does not work with the Ampere Range switch in the highest range.
What causes high weld output on my Miller Big Blue 800 Inverter?
Check the position of the Ampere Range switch and the Voltage/Amperage Adjust control. The engine speed may need adjustment.
What to do if my Miller Big Blue 800 has no generator power output at AC receptacles, but weld output is okay?
