After rewiring it from 460 to 230 volts, at first it seemed to work great, as evidenced by stick welding.
However, further testing revealed that there is NO high frequency output. I checked the spark gap and it is about what it should be, which is .040. When HF is turned on, there is no arcing activity at all in the spark gap and no characteristic noise.
I am, obviously, withdrawing my for sale offer until further notice.
Checked your tig pedal to make sure its actualy fireing up the circuit? It should also start the gas flow.
see section 2.6 of the pdf
Check to see if you have HF on DC-, DC+ and AC
I have a Lincoln 300 that doesnt produce anything other than MAXIMUM output at any setting, but only on DC- & DC+. AC works just fine. Still dont know whats up with that...its in the To Do pile.
Check to make sure your HF is not grounded anywhere inside the case or line

"Lenin called them "useful idiots," those people living in liberal democracies who by giving moral and material support to a totalitarian ideology in effect were braiding the rope that would hang them. Why people who enjoyed freedom and prosperity worked passionately to destroy both is a fascinating question, one still with us today. Now the useful idiots can be found in the chorus of appeasement, reflexive anti-Americanism, and sentimental idealism trying to inhibit the necessary responses to another freedom-hating ideology, radical Islam"

OK... I will look today with a printed manual in hand... Any sort of a relay should be easily replaceable. I will not presume too much from the beginning.
