How to Calibrate a Miller Welding Machine
Miller Welding machines are used in residential and commercial construction. If you are noticing unusual arcing, which is when the flame is too high on a low setting, on your Miller welder, you should calibrate it. Taking the welder to a service shop could cost you a lot of money. You don't have to be a Miller technician to get your welder working again. You can calibrate it yourself with little hassle and minimal knowledge of how the unit works.
-
Turn the welder on and press the "Setup" button two times so the display reads "Process." Turn the right knob until you see the "Setup" option.
-
Open the drive rolls on the power source. Press the "Setup" and then "Arc Control" button together on the display panel.
-
Rotate the left knob until you see "MCAL" on the display. Turn the right knob until you see the "Yes" option. The welder is in calibration mode now.
-
Press down and hold the gun trigger until you see "Cal Done" on the screen. Release the gun trigger to save your calibration.
