    Why is my Victor Welding System torch cutting diminished?
    • W
      williamsnathanAug 17, 2025
      If the torch cutting is diminished, consider the following: * The current setting might be incorrect. Check and adjust to the proper setting. * The torch consumables might be worn. Check and replace them as needed. * There might be a poor work cable connection to the work piece. Check the connection of the Work Lead to the work piece. * The torch might be moved too fast. Reduce the cutting speed.

    What to do if GAS LED is OFF, and FAULT and MIN pressure indicators are flashing on my Victor CUTMASTER 152 Welding System?
    • T
      Travis HopkinsAug 20, 2025
      If the GAS LED is OFF, and the FAULT and MIN pressure indicators are flashing, it could be due to several reasons: * The gas supply might not be connected. Ensure the gas supply is properly connected to the unit. * The gas supply might not be turned on. Make sure the gas supply is turned ON. * The gas supply pressure might be too low. Set the air supply inlet pressure to the unit to 120 psi.

    What does it mean if FAULT and 75 PSI indicators are flashing on my Victor Welding System?

      If the FAULT and 75 PSI indicators are flashing, it could mean that the start signal is active when the ON/OFF SWITCH is turned to the ON position. The start can be active if the hand torch switch or hand pendant switch is held closed, or if the CNC START signal is active low. Try releasing the START signal source. It may also indicate a problem in the torch and leads switch circuit.

    What does it mean if FAULT and 70 PSI indicators are flashing on my Victor CUTMASTER 152?

      If the FAULT and 70 PSI indicators are flashing, it could be due to a loose shield cup. Hand tighten the shield cup until it is snug. It could also indicate that the torch is not properly connected to the power supply. Ensure the torch ATC is securely fastened to the unit. Another possible reason is a problem in the torch and leads PIP circuit.

    Why is the pilot arc ON but the cutting arc will not establish on my Victor Welding System?
    • B
      Benjamin WilliamsAug 28, 2025
      If the pilot arc is ON but the cutting arc will not establish, it could be because the work cable is not connected to the work piece. Connect the work cable. Alternatively, the work cable or connector may be broken, in which case you should replace the work cable.

    What to do if FAULT and 85 PSI indicators are flashing on my Victor CUTMASTER 152?

      Vincent ReyesAug 31, 2025
      If the FAULT and 85 PSI indicators are flashing, check these potential issues: * The upper O-Ring on the torch head might be in the wrong position. Remove the shield cup and check the upper O-Ring position, correcting it if necessary. * The torch starter cartridge might be stuck. Turn OFF the power supply, bleed down the system pressure, and remove the shield cup, tip, and starter cartridge. Check the starter cartridge's lower end fitting for free movement, and replace it if it doesn't move freely. * The torch parts might be worn or faulty. Inspect the torch consumable parts and replace them if necessary.

    What does it mean if FAULT and 80 PSI indicators are flashing and gas flow is cycling ON and OFF on my Victor CUTMASTER 152 Welding System?
    • W
      william18Sep 3, 2025
      If the FAULT and 80 PSI indicators are flashing and the gas flow is cycling ON and OFF, it could be due to a loose torch shield cup. Tighten the shield cup by hand, but do not overtighten. Alternatively, the torch tip, electrode, or starter cartridge might be missing. Turn OFF the power supply, remove the shield cup, and install the missing parts. Another possible cause is a stuck torch starter cartridge. Turn OFF the power supply, bleed down the system pressure, remove the shield cup, tip, and starter cartridge, and check the starter cartridge's lower end fitting for free movement. Replace it if it does not move freely.

    What to do if TEMPERATURE indicator is ON and FAULT indicator is flashing on Victor CUTMASTER 152 Welding System?
    • G
      greenjenniferSep 5, 2025
      If the TEMPERATURE indicator is ON and the FAULT indicator is flashing, it could be that the air flow through or around the unit is obstructed. Also, it could be that the duty cycle of the unit has been exceeded, so allow the unit to cool.

    What to do if ON / OFF Switch is ON but the A/C Indicator does not light on my Victor CUTMASTER 152 Welding System?
    • D
      David LewisSep 8, 2025
      If the ON/OFF switch is ON but the A/C Indicator doesn't light, the primary power disconnect might be in the OFF position. Turn the primary power disconnect switch to the ON position. Also, the primary fuses or breakers might be blown or tripped.

    What does it mean if Fault indicator is flashing, and 65 PSI indicator is flashing on my Victor Welding System?
    • V
      victoria52Sep 12, 2025
      If the Fault indicator and the 65 PSI indicator are flashing, the INPUT VOLTAGE SELECTION SWITCH might be set for the incorrect voltage. Set the INPUT VOLTAGE SELECTION SWITCH to match the primary input voltage.
