EMENT FUNCTION
4 "Motor Con-
trol" softkey The "Motor Control" softkey opens a softkey submenu in which the weld head
rotation and cold wire functions
can be controlled manually.
See the chapter Motor control [ } 160]
CAUTION The rotor can start up unexpectedly during the setup of the elec-
trode.
Risk of crushing of hands and fingers!
► Before mounting the electrodes: Switch off the power supply.
► To move the rotor to home position: Close the clamping cassette or
the clamping unit and flip cover.
WARNING Damage to health from toxic emissions in the ambient air

8.2.1 "Gas" softkey
The "Gas/" softkey takes you from the "Weld Mode" menu to a submenu with all the functions relevant
to welding gas.
8.2.1.1 Gas overview
The gas overview provides a summary and visualization of the welding gas parameters "Gas Pre-Purge
Time" and "Gas Post-Purge Time" and the special functions "Flow Force" and "Permanent Gas".
With these functions, welding gas management can be optimized in terms of gas consumption, anneal-
ing colors and process time.
Welding gas special functions
By using welding gas special functions, such as "Flow Force" and "Permanent Gas", you can optimize
the welding process in terms of process time, annealing colors, gas consumption, workpiece tempera-
ture and weld head temperature.
