I did contact Hobart and will try getting a manual for my buddy. I broke even, he's got a welder he really likes, and hopefully the second one can be fixed 100%. I don't know if that switch could be the culprit, and if so whether it can be fixed or replaced, but he'll have to good one to take measurements off if needed. He called to see if I wanted to sell them, and figured the bad one was at least good for parts, but now wants to try fixing it. He had seen the welders when I got them, and tried the good one.just fell in love with it. Not fifteen minutes after I narrowed the problem down to the DC Pos side a buddy of mine called. I welded some aluminum on AC with it running at 250 amps or so and then DC Neg on some fairly thick mild steel.no problems at all. It powers up and welds fine in AC and DC Negative, but trips the breaker in DC Positive. Then I realized I had never tried powering up the welder with that switch in all the different positions, so I did that.

I disconnected the power lead to that switch, and the welder powered up fine again so I was confident the problem had been narrowed down to somewhere between the switch and the output terminals. I reconnected the transformer leads to the diodes and then followed the cabling from the diodes to the rotary switch that controls AC/DC Neg/DC Pos and had an idea. At that point I disconnected the transformer leads to the diodes and she powered up fine. The SCRs were both OL in both directions.

I checked the diodes and they all read the same OL in one direction and around. Download Free: Tigwave 250 Ac Dc Manuals Sunbeam SMW910 Manuals. Hobart Tigwave 250 Full Version Hobart Tig. If power stays on then problem is in diodes / SCRs Or something between the diodes and the weld terminals.Thanks, that helped a lot! Turns out it was an interesting day as far as these welders go. if breaker still trips transformer is bad. try finding the transformer leads to the diodes and disconnect them. the other 0.200 to 0.700 SCRs should read OL both ways. First test use multi meter is diode test mode. For first tests nothing needs to be disconnected. You need to check and see if any of the weld diodes are shorted.

When Hobart was split ITW Hobart got all the manuals and they had them scanned. Call hobart or go to their web site and put in a request for a manual.
