If the ventilator isn't working, check the power line as it may be interrupted.
Why does the output current not decrease on my Parkside Welding System?
If the output current doesn't decrease, the input voltage might be too low. Observe the input voltage according to the type plate. It could also be that the connection cable cross-section is too low, so observe the input voltage according to the type plate.
How to prevent slag formation on interfaces when using my Parkside PPS 40 A1 Welding System?
Slag formation can occur if the tool/material creates heat. Allow the material to cool down and then continue cutting. If the cutting speed is too low or the current is too high, increase the speed and/or reduce the current until the slag has been reduced to a minimum. Also, check and replace worn parts.
What causes insufficient penetration when using my Parkside Welding System?
Insufficient penetration can occur if the cutting speed is too fast, so slow down the working speed. Ensure the pistol is straight by adjusting the inclination. If the metal is too thick, several cycles may be necessary. Finally, check and replace any worn parts on the pistol.
Why do sparks fly upwards instead of down through the material when using my Parkside Welding System?
If sparks fly upwards, it may be that the plasma pistol does not penetrate the material, so increase the current. It could also be that the pistol is too far away from the material, so reduce the distance between the pistol and material. Ensure the material is properly grounded by checking the connection. Lastly, the lifting speed might be too quick, so reduce the speed.
How to fix bad ignition on a Parkside PPS 40 A1 Welding System?
If you're experiencing bad ignition, the burner wear parts may be damaged or worn, so change the wear parts. Also, check the HF spark gap and set spark gap.
Why does the arc stop during cutting with my Parkside PPS 40 A1 Welding System?
The arc may stop if the cutting speed is too low, so increase the cutting speed until the problem no longer exists. Also, the pistol might be held too high or too far from the material; lower the pistol to the recommended height. Check and replace worn parts. Finally, make sure the workpiece is connected to the grounding cable and check the connections.
What to do if there is no output current from my Parkside PPS 40 A1?
If there's no output current, the machine might be faulty and require repair. Alternatively, the overvoltage protection may be activated; allow the device to cool down.
Why does the warning lamp switch on for my Parkside PPS 40 A1?
The warning lamp may activate because the overheating protection has been triggered, so allow the device to cool down. It can also mean the input voltage is too high; ensure the input voltage matches the specifications on the type plate.
Why is the indicator lamp not lighting up on my Parkside PPS 40 A1?
The indicator lamp might not light up due to no electrical connection. Check the power cable. Alternatively, the ON/OFF switch may be set to off; in this case, set the switch to ON.
