WIRE FEEDER SETUP
Use the FEED FORWARD pushbutton to insert wire
into the feed mechanism.
While pressing either the FEED FORWARD or FEED
REVERSE pushbutton the MSP Display will read as
shown and the preset wire feed speed will be displayed
on the left (AMPS/WFS) display.
The feed speed can be changed by adjusting the con-
trol knob below the display while pressing either but-
ton. Use FEED REVERSE to retract the wire from the
feed mechanism. FEED FORWARD feeds the wire
downward toward the work piece.
The
CRUISER™
has an option in the Setup Menu
(P.15) to enable the “Touch Sense” circuitry. See the
Setup Menu. When P.15 is enabled and the FEED
FORWARD button is pressed, the MSP Display will
read:
WARNING: This “Hot Feed” feature enables the
output of the power source and there is voltage on
the wire while feeding down. Avoid touching any
exposed parts as defined in the
SAFETY PRECAU-
TIONS
.
CHANGING AND SETTING WELD MODES
To select a weld mode, press the WELD MODE
SELECTOR button until the WELD MODE indicator
comes ON (it may already be lit by default at power
up). Turn the control knob to select the desired mode.
After about 1 second, the parameters for the new
mode will be displayed. These parameters can be
adjusted with the control knobs below each display.
NOTE:
CC Modes will show AMPS in the upper left
display. CV Modes will show wire feed speed
and the WFS indicator will be lit.
FREQUENCY
Press the WELD MODE selector until the FREQUEN-
CY/ BALANCE indicator comes ON and the MSP
Display reads “Frequency”. If the selected mode allows
for frequency adjustment, the Control Knob can be
used to select the desired frequency between 10 and
100hz.
Frequency adjustment can be used to fine tune stabil-
ity of imbalanced waveforms and multiple arc system.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

Prior to inserting the wire, dis-
able “Touch Sense” (P.15 in
the Setup Menu).
