6.10.2.28 F36: STICK welding torch switch function
Enables to start and stop welding with the torch switch in the AC STICK welding mode and DC STICK
welding mode.
Since the no-load voltage is output when the torch switch is pressed, arc is started by contacting the welding
rod with the base metal when no-load voltage output is being output.
Releasing the torch switch will stop the output, finishing welding. There is no need to pull up the welding rod
to finish welding.
• [ON]: Start and stop of welding is done with the torch switch in the STICK welding mode.
• [OFF]: No-load voltage is automatically output in the STICK welding mode. At the end of welding, pull
up the welding rod to finish welding.
T I P S
• If the welding rod has stuck during welding, stop the output by releasing the torch switch.
Then, it becomes easier to pull the welding rod off the work. Also, no arc mark will remain
on the work as arc is not generated when the welding rod is pulled off.
6.10.2.29 F37: Switchover of characteristics (AC STICK welding)
Switches the static characteristics to constant current characteristics or drooping characteristics in AC STICK
welding mode.
By setting to drooping characteristics, the output current increases as the arc length becomes short and it
decreases as the arc length becomes long.
• [ON]: Static characteristics become drooping characteristics in AC STICK welding mode.
• [OFF]: Static characteristics become constant current characteristics in AC STICK welding mode.
T I P S
• When the static characteristics is constant current characteristic, constant current is output
irrespective of the arc length.
6.10.2.30 F 38: Adjustment of drooping characteristics current change amount (AC
STICK welding)
Sets the change amount of the current with respect to the arc length in drooping characteristics of AC STICK
welding.
• Set the change amount of the current within the range of -100 to 100.
• When set to a negative value, the current change amount increases.
• When set to a positive value, the current change amount decreases.
