Hi fellas, Im new to your site but an old timer to the trade. The question I have is about the Lincoln Tig 355 machine. I bought it new
in 1993 and haven't had any real problems with it except for an intermit
tant high freq. problem.....The pre flow is set all the way at 0 and
when you first hit the pedal (dcen) it still takes a second before you can get welding. after about 20 minutes of steady welding it starts losing
the high freq. and you almost have to scratch the tungsten to the work piece to establish and arc.....then it welds fine.....what do you think is the problem? I have the machine grounded to a 8 foot rod in the ground
outside.....even if I turn the high freq knob all the way up it still acts up
I love the welder with all the bells and whistles.....maybe thats the
problem.......too many whistles...http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v93/billcalicura/bcshop.jpg
