Problem: Wire feed burning back to the tip at arc end sequence. The problem is intermittant.

Have adjusted AES voltages, replaced tips, running 92/8 gas mixture. Welding 16 gage mild steel tube.



 
CHECK GAS OFF DELAY
CHECK WIRE FEED OFF DELAY
CHECK LINER FOR GRABBING WIRE (ARE THERE WAVES IN WELDED AREAS)
 
90 % of the time its the liner getting gunked up... try installing a wire kleener pad by Lube-Matic before it goes into the wire feeder should increase liner life and reduce burn back.
