STICK WELDING
Set the preset current with the OUTPUT knob. Set the CONTROL knob
to “50” for a normal arc. This is a good setting for all electrodes and
applications. See Figure B.4
Adjust the CONTROL knob to “20” for a narrow arc that is ideal for
welding root passes with cellulosic electrodes. The preset current
may need to be adjusted slightly higher than the actual weld current.
Adjust the CONTROL knob to “80” for a wider arc good for cap welds
on the bottom of a pipe with cellulosic electrodes. The preset current
may need to be adjusted slightly lower than the actual weld current.
WIRE WELDING-CV
Connect a wire feeder to the CROSS COUNTRY 300 according to the
instructions in INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Section.
The CROSS COUNTRY 300 in the CV-WIRE mode, permits it to be used
with a broad range of flux cored wire (Innershield and Outershield)
electrodes and solid wires for MIG welding (gas metal arc welding).
The CONTROL knob does not change or have any effect on the arc
when the unit is used in the CV mode.
