Well I have just spent the last hour trying everything - still no joy.
It sort of works in arc mode - but again very hard to actually strike an arc.
HF definitely not working - not even a tickle on my finger.
Sending it back Tuesday - good job I know someone who can arrange pallet shipping
The seller is a very nice genuine bloke. Offered me a full refund - I said I would be happy if he can get it fixed - if not I will try a nice ESAB he has.
He explained that he does test them but as he doesnt have 3 phase he plugs them into an inverter to see if they power up - obviously ti won't supply enough juice to weld.
Such a shame as it was the exact type of machine I wanted!
