OFF / ON

 

When switched on the machine will use inbuilt technology to stop electrode from sticking to material.

 

 

REMOTE

 

OFF / ON

 

When switched on, you can control the amperage remotely by foot pedal or other remote device.

 

 

V.R.D

 

OFF 

-

 Full OCV (80

-

90VDC) voltage at welding terminals.

 

 

ON 

-

 Welding voltage at terminals is reduced to 20VDC (+/

-

 3V) for user safety. Once electrode touches 

workpiece the arc is established to full voltage, once arc is stopped, the machine returns to 20VDC

 

 

NOTE: In MMA MODE, welding terminals are LIVE 

-

 ensure welding electrode holder / electrode are not in 

contact with earth / workpiece.
