OPERATION - MMA
Before starting any welding activity ensure that you have suitable eye protection and
protective clothing as, welding rays, spatter, smoke and high temperatures produced in the
process may cause injury to personnel.
Also take the necessary steps to protect any persons within the welding area that may cause injury too.
To access the below options, you can either rotate the left hand control dial and confirm by pressing the
left control dial OR by pressing the touch screen and sliding your finger to select your choice.
MMA - Advanced settings menu (D)
Pressing the EXTRA icon will enter the advanced settings menu.
From here you can select 3 additional options as follows:
1. VRD Delay Switch
2. Power Limit On/Off
3. Power Limit setting (active if Power Limit is switched ON)
4. Anti-sticking mode On/Off
5. MMA Auto Standby
6. Restore Default Settings
4. Anti-Sticking:
Anti-stick when turned 'ON' will assist in preventing the electrode from sticking
and to be detached easily if it does begin to stick to the base metal.
When the machine senses that the electrode is sticking, it will reduce/stop the
welding current to stop the electrode from continuing to weld itself to the base
material and allowing it to break free easily.
5. MMA Auto Standby
When active or tuned ON in MMA, after a short period of time (30 seconds)
when no welding activity has taken place the output will be deactivated and a
pop up will appear in the screen stating 'Standby Mode Press to reactivate'
pressing the screen will activate the MMA output again and the pop up warning
will disappear.
Accessing the MMA Auto Standby option will allow you to turn ON or OFF this feature as shown in
the image right.
6. Restore Default Settings
This option will restore the MMA parameters to the factory settings.
Accessing the MMA restore default settings option will pop open another
window that allows the operator to restore MMA parameters to the factory
settings by selecting 'yes' as shown right.
Please Note:
Depending on machine software version installed, the icon order and selection may differ.
