ing SMAW welding.
During SMAW welding the wire drive remains idle.

DESCRIPTION
Arc Force adjusts the short cir-
cuit current for a soft arc, or for
a forceful, driving arc. It helps
to prevent sticking and shorting
of organic coated electrodes, par-
ticularity globular transfer types
such as stainless and low
hydrogen. Arc Force is espe-
cially effective for root pass on
pipe with stainless electrode
and helps to minimize spatter
for certain electrodes and pro-
cedure as with low hydrogen,
etc.
NOTE: When a remote control pot such as a K936-1 or -2
Hand Amptrol is connected, and P.17 is setup for
Stick/Gouge Remote, the pot value will be shown
on the left display, but can only be adjusted to the
max workpoint. The max workpoint is set by adjust-
ing the left knob. When the left knob is adjusted,
the left display will show the max workpoint setting,
and will switch back to show the pot setting when
the knob is done being adjusted.
