ON/OFF SWITCH ILLUMINATED, CIRCUIT BREAKER 
PRESSED IN & UNIT NOT OPERATING

UNIT OPERATING IN CLEAN MODE ONLY

•  Ensure the TIG Brush circuit breaker is reset (it should 

be pressed in – see back of unit). 

•  Ensure the cables are securely plugged into the front of 

the TIG Brush. 

•  Ensure the clamp is gripping the work securely. 

Sometimes the clamp position may need adjusting to 
make a good contact. If dirt or debris has built up on the 
clamp, clean it as this may prevent a good contact  
being made. 

•  Ensure the brush or marking head is wet with fluid. 
•  Ensure that the work is conductive. If the metal has a 

plastic film or a thick layer of oxide, the current cannot 
flow through the work. A mechanical or chemical 
method may need to be used to remove any insulating 
film before the TIG Brush can be used. 

•  Examine all cables for damage and ensure all the cables 

are properly connected.

•  Ensure the brush or marking head adapter is securely 

screwed into the wand. NOTE: Be careful when 
checking, as a loose connection may be extremely hot.

•  Check screw threads on the handle, wand, brush or 

marking head adapter for dirt and contamination in the 
screw threads and clean if required. 

•  The unit is faulty. Return the unit to your local Ensitech 

supplier for servicing.
