Indicating Light

Power, Thermal Protection

 

There are two indicating lights : power indicator and thermal indicator. When the 
machine is turned on, the power indicator will be on to show it. When the thermal 
indictor is on, it shows the machine is overloaded working and the internal 
temperature is too high. The machine will turn off automatically but the fan will 
still be working. When the internal temperature is decreased, the machine will 
turn on automatically. 

Current Adjustment 

Current adjustment is on the front panel of machine. It is an infinite current output 
adjustment  

Output “+“Connector 
 

This is the connector for welding cable most often when STICK welding. When 

this machine is used for TIG welding, this connector is for the grounding cable. 

Ground Cable and Clamp 

The ground cable and clamp is attached to the work piece to complete the flow of 
current needed to weld.
