Welder Tig AC/DC blown house fuses, shorted IGBT

@Tokenpete Your a legend mate! I do think it's a copy of an Everlast welder as I have seen a picture somewhere of the output section of the control board which was exactly the same!
tokenpete:
:) You are most welcome
tmazz:
@tokenpete attached is the secondary inverter board schematic for said welder.
tokenpete:
Great work. I have plenty of these boards as new pieces. Mostly the caps die on them after not being in stoarge for a while.
tmazz:
Cheap caps are always a problem.
I would like the AC frequency range to be a bit higher (up to 200hz) so I might lower the value of resistor R2, on secondary board, and then change the pot to a higher value so that I still get the very low frequency range. The balance is a bit ordinary as I don't think it is in spec with the dial. My Tungsten tends to ball up a bit too easy when I push the current up and dial set to minimum, i.e., 30% EP. I'll scope it out and see what is going on. Being able to adjust a bit lower than 30% EP would be nice anyway.
