Reversing Polarity - Kemppi Adaptive 170 Operating Manual

NOTE! When driving the wire in to the gun, do not point the gun at yourself or
others or put, for example, your hand in front of the tip, because the cut wire end
is extremely sharp. Also, do not put your fingers near the feed rolls, because they
might get squeezed between the rolls.

2.5.3 Reversing polarity

Some filler wires are recommended to be welded with the gun in the –pole,
so the polarity should be reversed. Check the recommended polarity from
the filler wire package.
1. Disconnect the machine from the mains.
