Just got my new powerarc 140st. Changed the plug to fit my 220 outlet and turned it on. It will only register 84 amps. It is on the stick mode and should go to 140 amps.Any ideas why this is happening? Could it be a wiring problem? Thanks.

Mike or Mark are the troubleshoot guys- they'll want to know what type of plug you used, how you wired it, and what kind of outlet you're plugging into. There was a post about this recently- I'll find it and add a link here.
Edit: see post #6 here:
