As with any gasoline engine, you need, fuel, spark & air, take a moment to follow the progression of each of them, you will figure it out: example, test your ignition switch, clean, new fuel, getting spark to the plug? do you have a fuel stop solenoid attached to the carburetor?

Hello,

Depending on what exactly is broken (it may just be a set screw), it may be repairable. Contact Lincoln here and ask them for a parts diagram for the switch assembly. That will help you be able to disassemble, and identify what exactly is wrong.

Then you can make the determination if it is fixable or not. Sometimes, manufacturers will have trade-in or trade-up programs as well for damage products. Inquire about this too.

Lincoln electric ac/dc arc welder will not arc

Check the dial indicator. Sometimes if someone changes the amps while welding, there will be a break in the coil. It will work at a different setting as long as you are away from the break.

No arc/ no burn

You need to inspect the ground.Where it connects to the machine, and at the end. I bet one of the connections or the wire itself is damaged.
