The earth connection and torch polarity are incorrect.
The workpiece is dirty
Excessive draught.
The equipment is set in Lift-Arc mode
pre-gas time is excessive
Electrical discharge in the torch
Earth and torch connections interchanged.

nected.
Excessive consumption of the tungsten electrode in TIG mode.
CAUSE
The pulsed arc doesn't works
CAUSE
Make sure that the MMA mode is activated.
Check that electrode holder and earth clamps are pro-
perly connected to the respective power outlets.
Check the state of cable connections.
Make sure the TIG mode is activated.
Check the connection of remote controls.
Check that torch and earth clamp are properly con-
nected to their respective power outlets. Check the
state of cable connections.
Connect shielding gas. Make sure to use the proper
shielding gas.
Clean the tungsten electrode. A contaminated elec-
trode can affect the ignition sequence.
Check that the torch is connected to the right connec-
tor and earth clamp to the left.
Remove dirt or paint chips.
Excessive draught can move the shielding gas and af-
fect the arc.
Follow the Lift-Arc ignition sequence or select the HF
ignition mode
Reduce the pre-gas time
Replace the TIG torch for a new one
Interchange the connection.
Clean the electrode.
Ensure sufficient flow level. Ensure you use inert
shielding gases for TIG welding processes.
Check the settings and that the electrode that you are
using corresponds with the selected in the machine
Verify that you have chosen the high or low frequency
pulsed TIG mode
Set an appreciable difference between I1 and I2 para-
meters
