Torch trigger
Up/Down function
In addition to the display, Retox torches are equipped with two torch rocker switches. Which functions are
assigned to the individual operating elements depends on the welding machine used.
In most cases:
• the right-hand torch trigger is used to switch the welding current on and off and, by tapping it, to re-
duce the current to a secondary current
• the left-hand torch trigger is used to infinitely decrease the welding current (Down function) or
increase it (Up function).
In addition, Retox torches can access JOBs supplied by the welding machine.
Depending on the function set at the welding machine, the Retox torch display shows
• the welding current set or
• the selected JOB number.
Tapping function: Swiftly tap the torch trigger to change the function. The set torch mode determines the
operating mode.
