I have a Millermatic 212 that is about 1.5 years old. I have only used about 1/2 of a big roll of wire.
My issue is that it will start out just fine then start popping after about 3-4 seconds. Sometimes it will clear itself up, others you may need to stop welding that bead. Once the "popping" starts, the machine will have a hum/vibration to it. I dont think it is a setting issue as that it will start out great. I had another 212 before this one that did the same thing. Are there any know issues with what I am explaining?
The liner and tip is good. The .035 wire is running through the .035 drive rolls and there is no slipping on the drive rolls. Welding with 100% CO2.
Thanks in advance,
Brock
