4 Operation
VRD Function
Whenever the welding output of the Weldarc
inverter is open circuit (ie not arcing), the
voltage across the welding leads is reduced
to a safe level. This provides an increased
level of safety to the welding operator during
operations such as changing the electrode.
The “VRD SAFE” indicator on the front panel
is on to confirm the output is in the safe
condition.
The term VRD refers to a “Voltage Reducing
Device”which complies with AS1674.2 for
Category “C” conditions.
Shoulder Strap
To attach the shoulder strap to the Weldarc,
feed the strap through the top of the
shoulder strap bracket located on top of the
