Crater filling Crater filling time Crater filling helps to avoid pores, thermal cracking and crater formation in the weld when welding stops. When activating crater filling also select crater filling time using the setting knob. This function cannot be used with QSett. 2-stroke With 2-stroke gas pre-flow (if used) starts when the welding gun trigger switch is pressed.
Remote control unit Settings are made from the remote control unit. The remote control unit must be connected to the remote control unit socket on the machine before activation. When the remote control unit is activated the panel is inactive. With the remote control unit function activated one can change between different welding data memories using a welding gun with program selector (RS3).
