Scheppach WSE850 5906601901 Welding Machine F.A.Q.

How do I set up the Scheppach WSE850 for the first time?

To set up the Scheppach WSE850, first ensure the machine is placed on a stable surface. Connect the ground clamp to a clean part of your workpiece. Attach the electrode holder to the appropriate connector. Plug in the machine and set the desired amperage according to the electrode type and material thickness.

What type of electrodes can I use with the Scheppach WSE850 welding machine?

The Scheppach WSE850 supports a variety of electrodes, including E6013 and E7018. Ensure the electrode type matches the material you are welding and the desired weld properties. Always refer to the electrode manufacturer's guidelines for optimal performance.

Why does the Scheppach WSE850 keep tripping the circuit breaker?

If the machine trips the circuit breaker, it may be drawing too much current. Ensure the machine is connected to a circuit with adequate amperage (typically 16A or more). Check for any extension cords that might be undersized and replace them with thicker gauge cords if necessary.

How can I improve the arc stability when using the Scheppach WSE850?

To improve arc stability, ensure the workpiece is clean and free from rust, paint, or contaminants. Use the correct electrode for the material and adjust the amperage to match the electrode specification. Maintaining a consistent arc length will also help stabilize the arc.

What maintenance does the Scheppach WSE850 require?

Regular maintenance includes checking connections and cables for wear or damage, cleaning the machine's vents to prevent overheating, and inspecting the electrode holder and ground clamp for proper function. Periodically check and tighten any loose screws or fasteners.

How do I troubleshoot poor weld quality with the Scheppach WSE850?

Poor weld quality can be due to incorrect amperage settings, unsuitable electrode type, or contamination on the workpiece. Adjust the amperage according to the electrode specification, ensure the workpiece is clean, and verify you are using the correct electrode for the material.

Is the Scheppach WSE850 suitable for welding aluminum?

The Scheppach WSE850 is primarily designed for welding steel and iron. It is not ideally suited for aluminum welding due to its lack of AC capabilities. If aluminum welding is required, consider a TIG welder with AC functionality.

What safety precautions should I take when using the Scheppach WSE850?

Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including a welding helmet, gloves, and protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation to avoid inhaling welding fumes. Keep a fire extinguisher nearby and be aware of your surroundings to avoid accidents.

How can I prevent the Scheppach WSE850 from overheating?

To prevent overheating, ensure the machine's vents are clear of obstructions. Do not exceed the duty cycle rating of the machine, and allow it to cool down if it overheats. Use the machine in a well-ventilated area to help dissipate heat.

Can I use the Scheppach WSE850 for outdoor welding?

Yes, the Scheppach WSE850 can be used outdoors, but take precautions to protect the machine from moisture and rain. Use a welding tent or shield to prevent wind from affecting the arc stability. Ensure all electrical connections are dry and secure before starting.
