Do not hang leads on steel brackets, hangers
or other mechanisms.
.
Keep heating tool leads between ArcReach Heater
Extension Cable and workpiece together to
increase heating performance and minimize
unintentional heating of nearby objects.

Orient leads of heating devices as shown to keep cur-
rent flow in leads of nearby heating devices aiding.
The operating parameters in the quick wrap are affected
by the polarity of the leads connected to the ArcReach
Heater extension cable. Some applications may make
it difficult to see which lead is which on the quick wrap.
In that case, use the parameters display screen on the
ArcReach Heater to view the operating parameters. If
the average power reading is low, then stop the machine
output and try reversing the leads of one of the two quick
wrap heaters to see if tank current goes down and aver-
age power goes up. The system operates best when
Tank Current is not the limiting parameter.
