3) Turn the ENCODER KNOB (E) until the DISPLAY shows the
PRINCIPAL welding CURRENT VALUE at which you wish to
weld, in relation to the diameter of the electrode you are us-
ing.
The following functions are pre-set automatically in the facto-
ry:
•
HOT START -
Increases the welding current automatical-
ly at the start of the welding process, thereby reducing the
risk of poor melting of the electrode at the start of the joint.
•
ARC FORCE -
Automatically regulates the dynamic char-
acteristics of the arc.
4) Once the all the selections/regulations indicated above have
been made, welding can begin.
5) During the welding process the DISPLAY (D) shows the real
Amps (A) at which the operator is actually welding.

4) Turn the ENCODER KNOB (E) until the DISPLAY (D) shows
the CURRENT VALUE at which you wish to weld.
5) By pushing the WELDING PARAMETERS SELECTION (T3)
key a number of times it is possible to set the various TIG
WELDING PARAMETERS (see the “TIG Welding” paragraph
- WELDING PARAMETERS).

6) To exit welding parameter programming, hold the T3 button
down for about 1 second.
7) Once the all the selections/regulations indicated above have
been made, welding can begin.
8) During the welding process the DISPLAY shows the real Amps
(A) at which the operator is actually welding.
