    Bro you have the best videos on UA-cam! Don't give up on making them please. I'm having hell with a 400D that's not charging the battery. That's how I stumbled across your vids. Not a whole lot of content out there.

    Good video.. I have a Miller Big blue 300 pro going to change out the brushes. Do you replace the entire part with the wire connectors and the holder or do you only replace the pieces that may contact?

    • @ntxwelding626
      @ntxwelding626  3 роки тому +1

      Thank you for the feedback! You replace the whole block with brushes and wires. When you order the brushes it will all come together.

    im having problems with a big blue 400 ... cranks up and runs but im not getting an arc or voltage... breakers good, diodes (those square things by breakers in side panel) are good, fuses are good, brushes are food, slip wheels are clean but still no arc or voltage 🤔🤔🤔

    I have a 300 pro breaking arc after running a bead about an inch long. I have adjusted the idle a bit and cleaned the slip rings also. What else should I try or do you have any idea what could be the problem? Thanks.

    • @ntxwelding626
      @ntxwelding626  3 роки тому

      Do you have plenty of meat on the brushes? If they are short there might not be enough pressure to hold them tight on the slip rings. Does it run a grinder consistently without any problems? Does it do it in all stick settings?

    • @travisterrell5428
      @travisterrell5428 3 роки тому

      Checked brush length. They’re right at that 1/4 inch minimum. Ordered a new set immediately after that they’re on order right now. And I’d say yes it did it in all stick settings. Ran a grinder fine.
