4. WFS/Hot Start Control: Depending on welding process, this knob controls:
GMAW
process
Wire feed speed WFS: Value in percentage of nominal
value wire feed speed.
SMAW
process
HOT START: Procentowa regulacja wzrostu nominalnej
wartości prądu podczas zajarzania elektrody, powoduje
chwilowy wzrost prądu wyjściowego i ułatwia zapłon
elektrody.
5. Control: Depending on welding process, this knob controls:
GMAW
process
Inductance: Arc control is controlled by this knob. If the
value is higher, the arc will be softer and during welding is
less spatters.
SMAW
process
ARC FORCE: The output current is temporarily increased
to clear short circuit connections between the electrode and
the workpiece.
6. LED Indicator Power switch: This LED lights up when the welding machine is ON and is ready to work.
7. Thermal Overload Indicator: It indicates that the machine is overloaded or that the cooling is not sufficient.
Warning: If the welding current exceed 200 A, output power will be turned off after 5 seconds. It will be
indicated by Thermal Overload Indicator. Output power will be turned on again after 3 minutes.
8. EURO Socket: For connecting a welding gun (for GMAW / FCAW-SS process).
9. Positive Output Socket for the Welding Circuit: For connecting an electrode holder with lead / work lead.
10. Negative Output Socket for the Welding Circuit: For connecting an electrode holder with lead / work lead.
11. Gas Connector: Connection for gas line.
12. Power Lead with Plug (3m): Power lead with plug is a standard equipment. Connect the power lead with plug to the
main supply before turning power on.
