CAUTION
Engine will not go to high idle when
attempting to weld. Welding output
is normal when Idler Switch is in
“HIGH” position. Automatic idle
function works properly when the
auxiliary power is loaded.
1. Make sure the welding cables
and connections are tight.
1. Check for broken or faulty con-
nections in the sensing lead
(#254). Make sure the connec-
tions are tight at the Electrode
Output Terminal and the Range
Switch See Wiring Diagram.
2. Make sure the lead is routed
through the toroid.
Engine will not go to high idle when
