Hello, I purchased a used Millermatic 212 AutoSet that seems to have a problem with my 240v power.
I took the machine to a Miller Dealer/Repair shop near Chicago who plugged the machine in and said it worked just fine. Once back in my garage, it won't work. I plug the machine in, flip the switch and both lights on the front of the welder come on for a second before the machine shuts itself down.
I had an electrician out to check the outlet and he said it was wired correctly. He did note that my voltage was a bit high at 247-248v. In the welder's manual it calls for 230v and the metal jumper inside the machine is set for 230v.
Could the over voltage at the receptacle be causing the welder to shut itself down?
Any advice is appreciated!~
