Thread: my PowerPro 256S (2013)

  1. Default 2015 same issue

    sure enough, the same clearance problem exists with the air regulator mount as last year (surely someone at Everlast knew about this?????)

    they could move both holes down about 1.5cm and be okay (or maybe move the transformer forward some?)
    the quickest fix would be to supply 2 shorter screws.

    The HF gap is new and improved quite a bit from what I've seen in other pictures... this one shouldn't move at all
    (located on the left side, front)

    Just got my 256 this this month. Had the same issue with the filter screws being too long. I spaced them out and used them. Also , if you hook up the torch lines as per instructions, you will get cooler water come out your torch head.

    No, we've addressed this issue before about hooking up the torch. The instructions were and are correct. It's just an error in people not carefully reading the manual and looking at the pictures correctly drawn.

    It's all on page 12.

    THE ARGON GAS LINE SHOULD BE TAGGED AS “Ar”. IF NOT, TAKE DRY COMPRESSED
    AIR AND GENTLY BLOW THROUGH THE LINES TO DISCOVER WHICH LINE EXHAUSTS
    THROUGH THE TORCH OR THROUGH THE RETURN LINE. ON SOME BRANDS OF TORCHES,
    THE WATER LINES ARE COLOR CODED: BLUE FOR COOL WATER SUPPLY AND RED
    FOR HOT WATER RETURN. COOLER FITTINGS SHOULD BE COLOR CODED BLUE AND
    RED AS WELL.
    CAUTION: EVERLAST TORCHES ARE EQUIPPED WITH A DIFFERENT COLOR ARRANGEMENT.
    IF THE TORCH DOES NOT HAVE RED AND BLUE LINE, THEN THE COLOR CODE
    DOES NOT APPLY. FOLLOW THE HOSE DIAGRAM ABOVE, AND TEST THE TORCH BY
    BLOWING AIR THROUGH AS DESCRIBED ABOVE IF IN DOUBT. IF WATER BEGINS TO
    EXHAUST FROM THE TORCH AFTER CONNECTING THE UNIT, STOP IMMEDIATELY AND
    CHECK THAT THE LINES ARE CONNECTED TO THE CORRECT FITTING. DO NOT OPERATE
    WATER COOLED TORCHES WITHOUT WATER FOR ANY REASON.
    Long arc, short arc, heliarc and in-the-dark!

    If in doubt, blow in each line with the torch head by your ear. You hear the hiss, that is the argon/gas line.
