QUICK START GUIDE cont'd 4- ADJUSTING WELDING VOLTAGE (ARC change welding LENGTH) voltage V, simply press the knob for less than 2 seconds. The display screen will show (Arc Length) an adjustment bar with central 0. The value can be changed by means of the knob If the wire tends to disappear within the gas nozzle while you from -9.9 to 9.9.

ADVANCED SETTING cont'd adjust the starting current (Start Curr) from 10 to 200% of the welding current (Default 130%). The duration of this current (S.C. Time) may also be adjusted from 0.1 to 10 seconds (default 0,5 sec.). The switching time (Slope Time) between the starting current (Start Curr) and the welding current may also be adjusted from 0.1 to 10 seconds (default 0.5 seconds.).

ADVANCED SETTING cont'd recommended to obtain the optimal penetration and width of the bead for the joint to be made. This type of welding varies the intensity between two levels. Before setting the double level welding, it is necessary to make a short bead to determine the wire speed and the current to obtain the penetration and the bead width closest to the type of welding to be made.

By highlighting the word ALL and briefly pressing the knob reset is shows Factory Done!! made and the display screen This indicates the reset has been successful. To return to the previous display page, simply press the knob more than 2 seconds.
MAINTENANCE WELDER MAINTENANCE Electrical shock can result when contacting live electrode or internal components Electrical shock can result from absence of grounding lug. Welding machine must be connected to power source in accordance with applicable electrical codes. Do not touch electrode or internal components without protection. Disconnect power before servicing.
