Just received a Mastech 3005 D in the mail last week. The following is a picture of a unit like the one I purchased.

My problem is I can not figure out how to adjust the Amps or switch from Constant Voltage (CV) to Constant Current (CC). In fact, all I can achieve is exactly what is shown in the picture. I've tried turning the amp dials all the way down, turning voltage dials all the way up and slowly increase amp dials. Nothing happens with amps. The manual that came with it is of little use. Anyone have any suggestions?
 
Glad it didn't take you too long to get it sorted out. Nice lookin' supply. Mine looks like it's out of the 70's
 
I was gonna say check your connections, sounds like a loose wire... But you got it. Nice looking unit.
