Hot Start For Flextec™ 650–
Rotate from the “0”
position to the “10” position to
provide more energy
during the start of a weld.
Hot Start For Flextec™ 450–
Toggle to
“ON”
position
to provide more energy during the start of a weld.
Arc Control –
The Arc Control regulates pinch effect. At
the
minimum setting (-10), minimizes pinch and results
in a soft arc. Low pinch settings are preferable for
welding with gas mixes containing mostly inert gases. At
the maximum setting (+10), maximizes pinch effect and
results in a crisp arc. High pinch settings are preferable
for welding FCAW and GMAW with CO
2
.
Weld Terminals On/Remote
•
When set to the “ON” position, the weld terminals
are at OCV (open circuit voltage) and ready to weld.
This selection is used for across the arc wire
feeders.
•
When set to the “REMOTE” position, output is
enabled through a remote trigger.
Amperage Display Meter –
This display will display
three dashed lines when the machine is in the idle state.
This indicates that amperage is not settable in this weld
mode. While output is enabled, the actual welding
amperage will be displayed. After welding, the meter
holds the actual amperage value for 5 seconds. Output
adjustment while in the "hold" period results in the "prior
to operation" characteristics stated above.
The displays blink indicating that the machine is in the
"hold" period.
Voltage Display Meter –
This display will display the
pre-set
welding voltage when the machine is in the idle
state. After welding, the meter holds the actual voltage
value for 5 seconds. Output adjustment while in the
"hold" period results in the "prior to operation"
characteristics stated above. The displays blink
indicating that the machine is in the "hold" period.
Output Control Local/Remote –
When the control is
set to
“LOCAL” (no remote potentiometer/control
plugged into the 6 pin or 14 pin connectors), the output
is controlled through the Output Control Dial on the front
of the FLEXTEC™ 650&450. Set this switch to
“REMOTE” when an external potentiometer/control is
connected.
Output Control Dial
When the Local/Remote is set to “LOCAL”, this dial
sets the welding voltage.
When the Local/Remote is set to “REMOTE”, this
dial is disabled.
CV-Innershield
This weld mode is a constant voltage (CV) mode
featuring continuous control from 10 to 45 volts. It is
intended for the FCAW-SS welding process and arc
gouging.

CV-SAW (only for Flextec™650)
This weld mode is a constant voltage (CV) mode
featuring continuous control from 10 to 45 volts. It is
intended for the CV-SAW submerged arc welding
process.
