TIG “DC” welding
1) Start the welding power source by turning the power supply
switch to position I .
2) Press the WELDING PROCESS SELECTION Key (T7) and
select:
L2 a TIG “HF DC” welding process for direct
current TIG welding with high frequency ignition.
L3 a TIG “Lift DC” welding process for direct
current TIG “Lift” type welding without high fre-
quency.
WARNING: The “Lift” ignition current is creat-
ed by pushing the torch button only after having
touched the workpiece with the electrode.
3) ELECTRODE DIAMETER SELECTION
Select the diameter of the electrode to achieve
the best control of ignition in a synergic manner. Selection
is done by pushing the ELECTRODE DIAMETER Key (T8)
(ELECTRODE DIAMETER LED flashing) and using the EN-
CODER Knob (E) to regulate the value indicated on the DIS-
PLAY (D).

been made, welding can begin.
8) During the welding process the DISPLAY shows the real Amps
(A) at which the operator is actually welding.

TIG “AC and LIFT DC” welding with
the SPOT WELDING function on
1) Start the welding power source by turning the power supply
switch to position I .
2) Press the WELDING PROCESS SELECTION Key (T7) and
select one of the welding power source’s 2 TIG processes:
L1 TIG “HF AC”
L3 TIG “Lift DC”
3) Press the WELDING MODE SELECTION Key
(T9) and go to one of the SPOT WELDING func-
tion.
4) Press and release the WELDING PARAMETERS
SELECTION Key (T10) until the SPOT WELD
LED starts flashing.
