6. MIG Torch Polarity Lead
The polarity lead is used to connect the MIG torch to the appropriate positive or negative output terminal
(allowing polarity reversal for different welding applications). In general, the polarity lead should be
connected in to the positive welding terminal (+) when using steel, stainless steel or aluminium electrode
wire. When using gasless wire, the polarity lead is generally connected to the negative welding terminal (-).
If in doubt, consult the manufacturer of the electrode wire for the correct polarity. It is essential, however,
that the male plug is inserted and turned securely to achieve a sound electrical connection.
CAUTION
Loose welding terminal connections can cause overheating and result in the male plug being fused
in the Dinse terminal.
7. Negative Welding Output Terminal
The negative welding terminal is used to connect the welding output of the power source to the appropriate
welding accessory such as the MIG torch (via the MIG torch polarity lead), TIG torch or work lead. Negative
welding current flows to the power source via this Dinse terminal. It is essential, however, that the male
plug is inserted and turned securely to achieve a sound electrical connection.
CAUTION
Loose welding terminal connections can cause overheating and result in the male plug being fused
in the Dinse terminal.
8. Multifunction Control - MIG Arc Voltage or Stick Arc Force
The multifunction control knob is used to adjust voltage or arc force parameters depending on the welding
mode selected.
MIG ARC VOLTAGE Control when GMAW/FCAW (MIG) Mode is Selected
In this mode the control knob is used to adjust the output voltage of the unit. The welding voltage is
increased by turning the knob clockwise or decreased by turning the knob anti-clockwise. The optimum
voltage level required will dependent on the type of welding application. The setup chart on the inside
of the wire feed compartment door provides a brief summary of the required output settings for a basic
range of MIG welding applications.
Stick ARC FORCE Control when MMAW (Stick) Mode is Selected
In this mode the multifunction control knob is used to adjust arc force. Arc force control provides an
adjustable amount of welding force (or “dig”) control. This feature can be particularly beneficial in
providing the operator the ability to compensate for variability in joint fit-up in certain situations with
particular electrodes. In general increasing the arc force control toward ‘10’ (maximum arc force) allows
greater penetration control to be achieved. Arc force is increased by turning the control knob clockwise
or decreased by turning the knob anti-clockwise
9. Arc Control (Inductance)
The arc control operates in GMAW (MIG) mode only and is used to adjust the intensity of the welding arc.
Lower arc control settings make the arc softer with less weld spatter. Higher arc control settings give a
stronger driving arc which can increase weld penetration.
