I found that most are throw a way element because some units are sealed and it is most likely destroyed when trying to get into them.... I made sure the my replacement "element" has replaceable battery's and a test button when I replaced it...... -

IF you are unsure of how to wire an adapter, something like this "may" be a solution...

When you say "tripping" do you mean the circuit breaker?..... IF it is a 20 amp breaker its a bit on the light side.... IF you have a 120/240v receptical rated at 30 amp you need to wire up an adapter that can supply welder from 120v, 30 amp side of 240 v receptical....

Thanks for your message Dale. I already have the operators manual. It suggests a fault on the control board. There must be somthing more detailed that repairers use including a circuit diagram to enable component level repairs. -

If its per the customers specification by all means do it. (the tack weld) ... BUT as MAC noted a warning label or tag attached to piece and documentation should state its per customer specs and part of design/manufacturing specification and Its their liability if things go wrong........Last edited by Dale M.; 06-17-2021, 06:10 PM.Leave a comment:

There are a couple of places that specialize in circuit board repairs.... Might be less expensive than buying new board....

Think you already tested it....And its failed.....
Don't understand the comment about using adapter to plug 120 V welder into 240.... Seem like whole bunch of operator error.....
Check to see if there is a Circuit Breaker or "reset" button on back of machine, if so...Leave a comment:

Don't know about AMAZON but a simple search of part number shows several sources.....

What is actual model number of Cutter.... "Box store" could be any plasma cutter Hobart makes depending on what "Box" Store" you purchased it from...

IF the home you have moved into is a purchase and you intend to liver there 'forever'... I suggest you look at possible upgrade to a 200 amp service and run a decent 240 circuit to garage/shop area..... IT sort of one of those, do it once, cry once, be happy for along time (forever) things...

I would decrease oxygen pressure to about 25 psi and reduce size of acetylene flame before introducing oxygen .....
I usually find I have to strong of acetylene flame when it "pops" out when introducing oxygen........Leave a comment:

Solution is to quit reading, setup machine grab some scrap steel and do some coupons.... IT will tell you real fast if you have grasp on concept.... I will admit my welds are not pretty but so far my failure rate has been very low (actually nil) but I have grasped the concept to get penetration on both...Last edited by Dale M.; 05-28-2021, 08:42 PM.Leave a comment:
