MMA WELDING (COATED ELECTRODE- ELE)
1. Choose ELE method (see 7.2 SETTING THE METHOD OF WELDING)
2. The left display
V10
shows the value of welding current, the right display
V11
shows ELE.
3. The welding current is set by the encoder
V5
.
4. During welding, the display shows measured values of welding current.
5. After welding, on the display will remain measured value (HOLD) for 6 sec.
6. If the MIG/MAG remote torch stays connected, on its display will be shown
ELE. The remote function will not work. Careful, the welding voltage will be
on the torch.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE & INSPECTION
1. The only routine maintenance required for the aXe range of machines is a
thorough cleaning and inspection, with the frequency depending on the
usage and the operating environment.
WARNING
2. Disconnect the aXe from the mains supply voltage before disassembling.
3. Special maintenance is not necessary for the control unit parts in the
Welder. If these parts are damaged for any reason, replacement is
recommended.
