Arc Welding Hazards Y The symbols shown below are used throughout this manual to call attention to and identify possible hazards. When you see the symbol, watch out, and follow the related instructions to avoid the hazard. The safety information given below is only a summary of the more complete safety information found in the Safety Standards listed in Section 1-5. Read and follow all Safety Standards. D If earth grounding of the workpiece is required, ground it directly with a separate cable. Y Only qualified persons should install, operate, maintain, and repair this unit. D Wear a safety harness if working above floor level. D Keep all panels and covers securely in place. Y During operation, keep everybody, especially children, away. D Clamp work cable with good metal-to-metal contact to workpiece or worktable as near the weld as practical. ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. Touching live electrical parts can cause fatal shocks or severe burns. The electrode and work circuit is electrically live whenever the output is on. The input power circuit and machine internal circuits are also live when power is on. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the wire, wire reel, drive roll housing, and all metal parts touching the welding wire are electrically live. Incorrectly installed or improperly grounded equipment is a hazard. D Do not touch electrode if you are in contact with the work, ground, or another electrode from a different machine. D Use only well-maintained equipment. Repair or replace damaged parts at once. Maintain unit according to manual. D Insulate work clamp when not connected to workpiece to prevent contact with any metal object. D Do not connect more than one electrode or work cable to any single weld output terminal. SIGNIFICANT DC VOLTAGE exists after removal of input power on inverters. D Turn Off inverter, disconnect input power, and discharge input capacitors according to instructions in Maintenance Section before touching any parts. D Do not touch live electrical parts. D Wear dry, hole-free insulating gloves and body protection. D Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats or covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work or ground. D Do not use AC output in damp areas, if movement is confined, or if there is a danger of falling. D Use AC output ONLY if required for the welding process. D If AC output is required, use remote output control if present on unit. D Disconnect input power or stop engine before installing or servicing this equipment. Lockout/tagout input power according to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (see Safety Standards). D Properly install and ground this equipment according to its Owner’s Manual and national, state, and local codes. D Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes. D Always verify the supply ground − check and be sure that input power cord ground wire is properly connected to ground terminal in disconnect box or that cord plug is connected to a properly grounded receptacle outlet. D When making input connections, attach proper grounding conductor first − double-check connections. D Frequently inspect input power cord for damage or bare wiring − replace cord immediately if damaged − bare wiring can kill. D Turn off all equipment when not in use. D Do not use worn, damaged, undersized, or poorly spliced cables. D Do not weld in locations near degreasing, cleaning, or spraying operations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with vapors to form highly toxic and irritating gases. D Do not drape cables over your body. FUMES AND GASES can be hazardous. Welding produces fumes and gases. Breathing these fumes and gases can be hazardous to your health. D If inside, ventilate the area and/or use exhaust at the arc to remove welding fumes and gases. D If ventilation is poor, use an approved air-supplied respirator. D Read the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) and the manufacturer’s instructions for metals, consumables, coatings, cleaners, and degreasers. D Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated, or while wearing an air-supplied respirator. Always have a trained watchperson nearby. Welding fumes and gases can displace air and lower the oxygen level causing injury or death. Be sure the breathing air is safe. D Do not weld on coated metals, such as galvanized, lead, or cadmium plated steel, unless the coating is removed from the weld area, the area is well ventilated, and if necessary, while wearing an air-supplied respirator. The coatings and any metals containing these elements can give off toxic fumes if welded. OM-216 386 Page 1 ARC RAYS can burn eyes and skin. Arc rays from the welding process produce intense visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly off from the weld. D Wear a welding helmet fitted with a proper shade of filter to protect your face and eyes when welding or watching (see ANSI Z49.1 and Z87.1 listed in Safety Standards). D Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your helmet. D Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash and glare; warn others not to watch the arc. D Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame-resistant material (leather and wool) and foot protection. BUILDUP OF GAS can injure or kill. D Shut off shielding gas supply when not in use. D Always ventilate confined spaces or use approved air-supplied respirator. HOT PARTS can cause severe burns. D Do not touch hot parts bare handed. D Allow cooling period before working on gun or torch. MAGNETIC FIELDS can affect pacemakers. WELDING can cause fire or explosion. Welding on closed containers, such as tanks, drums, or pipes, can cause them to blow up. Sparks can fly off from the welding arc. The flying sparks, hot workpiece, and hot equipment can cause fires and burns. Accidental contact of electrode to metal objects can cause sparks, explosion, overheating, or fire. Check and be sure the area is safe before doing any welding. D Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal. D Do not weld where flying sparks can strike flammable material. D Remove all flammables within 35 ft (10.7 m) of the welding arc. If this is not possible, tightly cover them with approved covers. D Be alert that welding sparks and hot materials from welding can easily go through small cracks and openings to adjacent areas. D Watch for fire, and keep a fire extinguisher nearby. D Be aware that welding on a ceiling, floor, bulkhead, or partition can cause fire on the hidden side. D Do not weld on closed containers such as tanks, drums, or pipes, unless they are properly prepared according to AWS F4.1 (see Safety Standards). D Connect work cable to the work as close to the welding area as practical to prevent welding current from traveling long, possibly unknown paths and causing electric shock and fire hazards. D Do not use welder to thaw frozen pipes. D Remove stick electrode from holder or cut off welding wire at contact tip when not in use. D Wear oil-free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes, and a cap. D Remove any combustibles, such as a butane lighter or matches, from your person before doing any welding. FLYING METAL can injure eyes. D Welding, chipping, wire brushing, and grinding cause sparks and flying metal. As welds cool, they can throw off slag. D Wear approved safety glasses with side shields even under your welding helmet. OM-216 386 Page 2 D Pacemaker wearers keep away. D Wearers should consult their doctor before going near arc welding, gouging, or spot welding operations. NOISE can damage hearing. Noise from some processes or equipment can damage hearing. D Wear approved ear protection if noise level is high. CYLINDERS can explode if damaged. Shielding gas cylinders contain gas under high pressure. If damaged, a cylinder can explode. Since gas cylinders are normally part of the welding process, be sure to treat them carefully. D Protect compressed gas cylinders from excessive heat, mechanical shocks, slag, open flames, sparks, and arcs. D Install cylinders in an upright position by securing to a stationary support or cylinder rack to prevent falling or tipping. D Keep cylinders away from any welding or other electrical circuits. D Never drape a welding torch over a gas cylinder. D Never allow a welding electrode to touch any cylinder. D Never weld on a pressurized cylinder − explosion will result. D Use only correct shielding gas cylinders, regulators, hoses, and fittings designed for the specific application; maintain them and associated parts in good condition. D Turn face away from valve outlet when opening cylinder valve. D Keep protective cap in place over valve except when cylinder is in use or connected for use. D Read and follow instructions on compressed gas cylinders, associated equipment, and CGA publication P-1 listed in Safety Standards. 1-3. Additional Symbols For Installation, Operation, And Maintenance FIRE OR EXPLOSION hazard. MOVING PARTS can cause injury. D Do not install or place unit on, over, or near combustible surfaces.

EMF Information Considerations About Welding And The Effects Of Low Frequency Electric And Magnetic Fields Welding current, as it flows through welding cables, will cause electromagnetic fields. There has been and still is some concern about such fields. However, after examining more than 500 studies spanning 17 years of research, a special blue ribbon committee of the National Research Council concluded that: “The body of evidence, in the committee’s judgment, has not demonstrated that exposure to powerfrequency electric and magnetic fields is a human-health hazard.” However, studies are still going forth and evidence continues to be examined. Until the final conclusions of the research are reached, you may wish to minimize your exposure to electromagnetic fields when welding or cutting. To reduce magnetic fields in the workplace, use the following procedures: OM-216 386 Page 4 1. Keep cables close together by twisting or taping them. 2. Arrange cables to one side and away from the operator. 3. Do not coil or drape cables around your body. 4. Keep welding power source and cables as far away from operator as practical. 5. Connect work clamp to workpiece as close to the weld as possible. About Pacemakers: Pacemaker wearers consult your doctor first. If cleared by your doctor, then following the above procedures is recommended. SECTION 2 − CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ − À LIRE AVANT UTILISATION som_fre 8/03 2-1.

Dangers relatifs au soudage à l’arc Y Les symboles ci-après sont utilisés tout au long du présent manuel pour attirer l’attention sur les dangers potentiels et les identifier. Lorsqu’on voit un symbole, faire preuve de vigilance et suivre les directives mentionnées afin d’éviter tout danger. Les consignes de sécurité énoncées ci-après ne font que résumer le contenu des normes de sécurité mentionnées à la section 2-4. Lire et respecter toutes ces normes. D N’utiliser que du matériel en bon état. Réparer ou remplacer sur−le− champ les pièces endommagées. Entretenir l’appareil conformément au présent manuel. Y L’installation, l’utilisation, l’entretien et les réparations ne doivent être confiés qu’à des personnes qualifiées. D Fixer le câble de retour de façon à obtenir un bon contact métal sur métal avec la pièce à souder ou la table de travail, le plus près possible de la soudure. Y Pendant l’utilisation de l’appareil, tenir à l’écart toute personne, en particulier les enfants. D Porter un harnais de sécurité quand on travaille en hauteur. D Maintenir solidement en place tous les panneaux et capots. D Ne pas connecter plus d’une électrode ou plus d’un câble de masse à un même terminal de sortie. LES DÉCHARGES ÉLECTRIQUES peuvent être mortelles. Un simple contact avec des pièces sous tension peut causer une électrocution ou des blessures graves. L’électrode et le circuit de soudage sont sous tension dès que l’appareil est en fonctionnement. Le circuit d’entrée et les circuits internes de l’appareil sont également sous tension. En soudage semi−automatique ou automatique, le fil, le dévidoir, le logement des galets d’entraînement et les pièces métalliques en contact avec le fil de soudage sont sous tension. Tout matériel mal installé ou mal mis à la terre présente un danger. D Ne jamais toucher aux pièces électriques sous tension. D Porter des gants et des vêtements de protection secs et exempts de trous. D S’isoler de la pièce et de la terre au moyen de tapis ou autres dispositifs isolants suffisamment grands pour empêcher tout contact physique avec la pièce ou la terre. D D D Ne pas se servir d’une source de courant alternatif dans les zones humides, les endroits confinés ou là où on risque de tomber. Ne se servir d’une source de courant alternatif QUE si le procédé de soudage l’exige. Si l’utilisation d’une source de courant alternatif s’avère nécessaire, se servir de la fonction de télécommande si l’appareil en est équipé. D Couper l’alimentation ou arrêter le moteur avant de procéder à l’installation, à la réparation ou à l’entretien de l’appareil. Couper/étiqueter l’alimentation selon la norme OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 (voir les normes de sécurité). D Installer et mettre à la terre correctement l’appareil conformément à son manuel d’utilisation et aux codes nationaux, provinciaux et municipaux. D Toujours vérifier la terre du cordon d’alimentation − Vérifier et s’assurer que le fil de terre du cordon d’alimentation est bien raccordé à la borne de terre du sectionneur ou que la fiche du cordon est raccordée à une prise correctement mise à la terre. D Pour exécuter les branchements d’entrée, fixer d’abord le conducteur de mise à la terre adéquat et contre−vérifier les connexions. D Vérifier fréquemment le cordon d’alimentation et s’assurer qu’il n’est ni endommagé ni dénudé ; le remplacer immédiatement s’il est endommagé − tout câble dénudé peut causer une électrocution. D Mettre l’appareil hors tension quand on ne l’utilise pas. D Ne pas utiliser de câbles usés, endommagés, de calibre insuffisant ou mal épissés. D Ne pas s’enrouler les câbles autour du corps. D Si la pièce soudée doit être mise à la terre, le faire directement avec un câble distinct. D Ne pas toucher l’électrode quand on est en contact avec la pièce, la terre ou une électrode d’une autre machine. Il subsiste un COURANT CONTINU IMPORTANT dans les convertisseurs après la suppression de l’alimentation électrique. D Arrêter les convertisseurs, débrancher le courant électrique et décharger les condensateurs d’alimentation selon les instructions énoncées à la section Entretien avant de toucher les pièces. LES FUMÉES ET LES GAZ peuvent être dangereux. Le soudage génère des fumées et des gaz dont l’inhalation peut être dangereuse pour la santé. D Se tenir à distance des fumées et ne pas les inhaler. D À l’intérieur, ventiler la zone et/ou utiliser un dispositif d’aspiration au niveau de l’arc pour l’évacuation des fumées et des gaz de soudage. D Si la ventilation est insuffisante, utiliser un respirateur à adduction d’air agréé. D Lire les fiches techniques de santé−sécurité (FTSS) et les instructions du fabricant concernant les métaux, les consommables, les revêtements, les nettoyants et les dégraisseurs. D Ne travailler dans un espace clos que s’il est bien ventilé ou porter un respirateur à adduction d’air. Demander toujours à un surveillant dûment formé de se tenir à proximité. Des fumées et des gaz de soudage peuvent se substituer à l’air, abaisser la teneur en oxygène et causer des lésions ou des accidents mortels. S’assurer que l’air est respirable. D Ne pas souder à proximité d’opérations de dégraissage, de nettoyage ou de pulvérisation. La chaleur et les rayons de l’arc peuvent réagir en présence de vapeurs et former des gaz hautement toxiques et irritants. D Ne pas souder de métaux munis d’un revêtement, tels que la tôle d’acier galvanisée, plombée ou cadmiée, à moins que le revêtement n’ait été enlevé dans la zone de soudage, que l’endroit soit bien ventilé, et si nécessaire, porter un respirateur à adduction d’air. Les revêtements et tous les métaux renfermant ces éléments peuvent dégager des fumées toxiques lorsqu’on les soude. OM-216 386 Page 5 LES RAYONS DE L’ARC peuvent causer des brûlures oculaires et cutanées. Le rayonnement de l’arc génère des rayons visibles et invisibles intenses (ultraviolets et infrarouges) susceptibles de causer des brûlures oculaires et cutanées. Des étincelles sont projetées pendant le soudage. D Porter un masque de soudage muni d’un filtre de la nuance adéquate pour se protéger le visage et les yeux pendant le soudage ou pour regarder (voir les normes de sécurité ANSI Z49.1 et Z87.1). D Porter des lunettes de sécurité à écrans latéraux sous le masque. D Utiliser des écrans ou des barrières pour protéger les tiers de l’éclat éblouissant ou aveuglant de l’arc ; leur demander de ne pas regarder l’arc. D Porter des vêtements de protection en matière durable et ignifuge (cuir ou laine) et des chaussures de sécurité. LE SOUDAGE peut causer un incendie ou une explosion. Le soudage effectué sur des récipients fermés tels que des réservoirs, des fûts ou des conduites peut causer leur éclatement. Des étincelles peuvent être projetées de l’arc de soudure. La projection d’étincelles, les pièces chaudes et les équipements chauds peuvent causer des incendies et des brûlures. Le contact accidentel de l’électrode avec tout objet métallique peut causer des étincelles, une explosion, un surchauffement ou un incendie. Avant de commencer le soudage, vérifier et s’assurer que l’endroit ne présente pas de danger. D Se protéger et protéger les tiers de la projection d’étincelles et de métal chaud. D Ne pas souder à un endroit où des étincelles peuvent tomber sur des substances inflammables. D Placer toutes les substances inflammables à une distance de 10,7 m de l’arc de soudage. En cas d’impossibilité, les recouvrir soigneusement avec des protections agréées. D Des étincelles et des matières en fusion peuvent facilement passer même par des fissures et des ouvertures de petites dimensions. D Surveiller tout déclenchement d’incendie et tenir un extincteur à proximité. D Le soudage effectué sur un plafond, un plancher, une paroi ou une cloison peut déclencher un incendie de l’autre côté. D Ne pas souder des récipients fermés tels que des réservoirs, des fûts ou des conduites, à moins qu’ils n’aient été préparés conformément à l’AWS F4.1 (voir les normes de sécurité). D Brancher le câble sur la pièce le plus près possible de la zone de soudage pour éviter que le courant ne circule sur une longue distance, par des chemins inconnus, et ne cause des risques d’électrocution et d’incendie. D Ne pas utiliser le poste de soudage pour dégeler des conduites gelées. D En cas de non utilisation, enlever la baguette d’électrode du porte− électrode ou couper le fil au raz du tube−contact. D Porter des vêtements de protection exempts d’huile tels que des gants en cuir, une chemise en tissu épais, des pantalons sans revers, des chaussures montantes et un masque. D Avant de souder, retirer tout produit combustible de ses poches, tel qu’un briquet au butane ou des allumettes. LES PARTICULES PROJETÉES peuvent blesser les yeux. D Le soudage, le burinage, le passage de la pièce à la brosse métallique et le meulage provoquent l’émission d’étincelles et de particules métalliques. Pendant leur refroidissement, les soudures risquent de projeter du laitier. D Porter des lunettes de sécurité à écrans latéraux agréés, même sous le masque de soudage. OM-216 386 Page 6 LES ACCUMULATIONS DE GAZ peuvent causer des blessures ou même la mort. D D Couper l’alimentation en gaz protecteur en cas de non utilisation. Veiller toujours à bien ventiler les espaces confinés ou porter un respirateur à adduction d’air agréé. LES PIÈCES CHAUDES peuvent causer des brûlures graves.

Information sur les champs électromagnétiques Données sur le soudage électrique et les effets des champs magnétiques basse fréquence sur l’organisme En parcourant les câbles de soudage, le courant crée des champs électromagnétiques. Les effets potentiels de tels champs restent préoccupants. Cependant, après avoir examiné plus de 500 études qui ont été faites pendant une période de recherche de 17 ans, un comité de spécialistes du National Research Council a conclu : « L’accumulation de preuves n’a pas démontré que l’exposition aux champs magnétiques et aux champs électriques à haute fréquence constitue un risque pour la santé humaine ». Toutefois, les études et l’examen des preuves se poursuivent. En attendant les conclusions finales de la recherche, il serait souhaitable de réduire l’exposition aux champs électromagnétiques pendant le soudage ou le coupage. OM-216 386 Page 8 Afin de réduire les champs électromagnétiques en milieu de travail, respecter les consignes suivantes : 1. Garder les câbles ensemble en les torsadant ou en les fixant avec du ruban adhésif. 2. Mettre tous les câbles du côté opposé à l’opérateur. 3. Ne pas s’enrouler les câbles autour du corps. 4. Garder le poste de soudage et les câbles le plus loin possible de soi. 5. Placer la pince de masse le plus près possible de la zone de soudage. Consignes relatives aux stimulateurs cardiaques : Les personnes qui portent un stimulateur cardiaque doivent avant tout consulter leur médecin. Si ce dernier les déclare aptes, il leur est recommandé de respecter les consignes ci-dessus. SECTION 3 − DEFINITIONS (CE Models Only) 3-1. Warning Label Definitions 1 1 2 3 4 4 3 2 Warning!

They are not intended for exact voltage or amperage measurements. OM-216 386 Page 23 6-5. Inside Panel Controls 1 CE Models Jog Speed This control sets the speed at which welding wire is advanced out of the welding gun (Inch Down) or retracted into the gun (Inch Up). Non CE Models 2 1 Preflux Time This control sets the length of time, 0 to 10 seconds, during which flux will flow before the arc starts. During this time, only the flux relay, located on terminal strip TB2 (see Section 5-7), is active. Note: Flux relay remains active throughout the weld cycle. 3 2 Run-In Speed Control This control sets the wire feed speed between the time the weld cycle begins and before an arc is established. After arc initiation, the wire feed speed is set by the front panel Wire Speed control. 4 Crater/Burnback Output Control Use this control to set the output level of the power source while the weld cycle is in the crater fill and burnback modes. 3 5 Crater Speed Control Use this control to set the wire feed speed while the weld cycle is in the crater fill mode. 6 Crater Time Control This 0 to 5 seconds adjustable control sets the length of time the weld cycle stays in the crater fill mode. While in this mode, the power source output is set by the Crater/Burnback Output control rather than the front panel Output control. Also, the wire feed speed is set by the Crater Speed control rather than the front panel Wire Speed control. 4 7 5 Burnback Time Control This 0 to 5 seconds adjustable control allows setting of the time the welding wire remains electrically energized after the drive motor stops. The burnback timer starts after the crater timer times out. By adjusting the control properly, the wire neither freezes in the weld puddle nor in the contact tube of the gun. If the wire freezes in the puddle, increase the burnback time. If the wire freezes in the contact tube, decrease the burnback time. 6 8 Postflow Time Control This 0 to 5 seconds adjustable control allows setting of the time the flux relay remains activated after the Stop button is pressed. For Sub Arc, this control will most likely be set to zero (0). 7 9 8 9 CC/CV Switch Set this switch to tell the HDC 1500 whether you are using a constant current (CC) or constant voltage (CV) power source in the weld system. In CV mode, the controller feeds wire at a constant rate. Ref. 803 023-B / 202 959 / 202 960 / 208 269 / 208 270 OM-216 386 Page 24 6-6. Calibrating The HDC 1500 1 2 2 3 4 5 6 7 Ref. 803 021-C . The HDC 1500 controller is calibrated from the factory. If using a TRUE RMS meter capable of operation over a range of 10HZ to 360HZ, calibration must be done with the power source in DC or balanced AC. If using an AC+DC TRUE RMS meter capable of operation over a range of 10HZ to 360HZ, calibration can be done with the power source in DC, balanced AC or unbalanced AC. This meter will be referred to as “external meter” in the following procedure. If the external meter does not meet these requirements do not proceed, as the controller will not be calibrated correctly. Calibration must be done with a load bank for accurate calibration. Calibration while welding is not recommended and is difficult as the voltage and amperage may vary sufficiently to make calibration inaccurate. 2 Adjust Control Knob Press the START button on the controller. 3 4 Start Button Stop Button Adjust the voltage until the external meter reads approximately 30.0 volts. 5 6 Power Switch Inch Down Button 7 Inch Up Button If using sense leads on the HDC 1500, adjust potentiometer P2 on the controller motor board until the external meter reads matches the controller voltage meter. Y Turn off power source, controller, and load bank. Attach load bank to torch and work. Adjust load bank setting to handle 600 amperes. Disconnect wire drive motor from controller at motor or control. Set the external meter to read voltage and place one lead on the torch and one lead on the work. Turn on the power source, controller, and load bank. Adjust the zeroing screws on the face of each meter until the meter reads 0 volts and 0 amps. . These screws are for zeroing the meters, not for calibration. 1 HDC 1500 Controller If not using sense leads on the HDC 1500, adjust potentiometer P4 on the controller motor board until the external meter reads matches the controller voltage meter. Set the external meter to read amperage and place meter around the weld cable(s). Adjust the voltage until the external meter reads approximately 600 amperes. Adjust potentiometer P3 on the controller motor board until the external meter matches the controller amperage meter. Press the STOP button on the controller. Turn off power source, controller, and load bank. Re−connect the wire drive motor. Remove load bank. OM-216 386 Page 25 SECTION 7 − MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING 7-1.

Check 14-pin cord. Check gas hose and fittings. Check gun cable. 6 Months Blow out or vacuum inside. During heavy service, clean monthly. OR Clean drive rolls. 7-2. Circuit Breaker CB1 Y Turn Off welding power source and weld control. 1 Circuit Breaker CB1 CB1 protects the HDC 1500 internal circuits from overload. If CB1 opens, all operations stop. Correct the problem, and press button to reset breaker. 1 Ref. 803 022-C OM-216 386 Page 26 7-3. Troubleshooting Table Trouble Remedy Unit is completely inoperative. Check circuit breaker CB1, and reset if necessary (see Section 7-2). Wire does not feed during inching. Place Power Switch S1 in On position (see Section 6-1). Check 115 volts ac input power and be sure it is energized. Check circuit breaker CB1, and reset if necessary (see Section 7-2). Jog Speed Control set too low; increase Jog Speed setting (see Section 6-5). Check wire feed motor, and repair or replace if necessary. Check Inch Up push buttons PB3 and Inch Down push button PB4, and replace if necessary (see Section 6-1 and Parts List). Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check control board PC1, and replace if necessary. Wire feeds wrong direction during inching. To change direction, add or remove jumper wire connecting Remote Prog to Remote Common. Wire only feeds down whether Inch Down or Up button is pressed. Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check control board PC1, and replace if necessary. Wire does not feed after Start button is pressed (ensure that all wire feed inching functions are operating properly before checking this problem). Check Start switch PB1, and replace if necessary. No wire feed speed control with Wire Speed control during welding, but speed can be controlled with Run-In speed control. Check Output controls R9 and R10, replace if necessary. Run-In speed control set to low; increase run-in speed (see Section 6-5). Check current feedback from power source. This signal, +1 volt DC per 100 amperes, can be measured on terminal strip TB1, terminal F, with respect to terminal D (see Section 5-7). HDC 1500 needs a signal of greater than 1 volt DC (i.e. >100 amps) for unit to go from run-in into weld parameters. Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check control board PC1, and replace if necessary. No contactor control for welding power source (ensure that welding power source is working properly and that all connections are correct). Check for contact closure from pin A to pin B. This can be measured on terminal strip TB1, terminal A, with respect to terminal B (see Section 5-7). No output control for welding power source. Check Output controls R9 and R10, replace if necessary. Check command signal on pin E. This signal can be measured on terminal strip TB1, terminal E, with respect to terminal D. Signal should go from 0 to voltage of C with respect to D as Output control is turned from min. to max. No Crater mode. Check to be sure Crater Output, Crater Speed, or Crater Time controls are not set to 0. OM-216 386 Page 27 SECTION 8 − ELECTRICAL DIAGRAM 213 333-C Figure 8-1.
