As the arc becomes shorter, the welding voltage may drop so far that the rod electrode
will tend to stick. This may also cause the rod electrode to burn out.
Electrode burn-out is prevented by activating the anti-stick function. If the rod electrode
begins to stick, the power source immediately switches the welding current off. After the
rod electrode has been detached from the workpiece, the welding process can be contin -
ued without any problems.
