If I'm not getting enough air through?



I'm seeing burning to the electrode at the mo and not alot of cutting going on...now more that if I were to hold mains wires onto a workpiece but not blow the trip.



Oh the joy of no instructions and an unknown machine.... which is possibly dead...which is why its dumped here.

Lack of air, or contact tip worn out - they don't last very long if you're worrking on anything other than brand new clean material. I can chew through 3 or 4 tips a day when using mine a lot, and at work one an hour is normal.
