A Stuck Trigger Screen can occur for several reasons.

• Primarily, the trigger on the torch has been held for too long without starting an arc (more than 3 sec-

onds) and is caused by the following.

• The trigger has broken, stuck or torch contacts have been accidentally bridged.

• The foot pedal is stuck down, or foot switch is damaged.

• Point gap is dirty or incorrect.

• No or bad work clamp connection.

• Wrong polarity (arc not starting easily and balling tungsten)

• No gas flow/wrong or bad gas preventing arc from starting.

• Broken switch or circuit.

What to do:

• Let go of torch switch or foot pedal. Do not trigger torch or foot pedal and keep button held down for

any reason other than starting the arc. For adjusting gas flow, set post flow to maximum setting and

then only tap the trigger or the foot pedal to start post flow cycle .

• Investigate cause, remedy if possible. Check work clamp connection, proper function of switch, Gas

flow/type, polarity, foot pedal and torch switch operation.

• Try again.

• If cause cannot be found reset unit by cycling power switch.

• If warning does not clear, call Everlast.
