trol box.
4. Using the 5/16" nutdriver open the
control box PC board access door.
5. Locate the TS1 terminal strip. See
wiring diagram.
6. Using the ohmmeter check the resis-
tances per the following table F.2
7. Reconnect the welding cable leads
to the contact assembly.
8. If any of the resistances are not cor-
rect per Table F.2 check the associ-
ated leads, cables and circuits for
"opens" or "shorts". See wiring dia-
