If the motor fuse F1 opens, the wire drive motor will not run. To address this, pull the fuse from the fuse holder on PC1 and push the fuse back into the holder to reinstall it.
What to do if my Miller Welding System experiences a short circuit shutdown?
If the contact tip shorts and sticks to the workpiece, release the gun trigger and turn off the Miller Welding System. Remove the contact tip from the workpiece, inspect it, and replace it if necessary. Turn the unit back on to resume operation.
