5.3.5 Antistick
The Antistick feature prevents the electrode from annealing.
Should the electrode stick despite the Arcforce feature, the machine
automatically switches to the minimum current within approx. one
second. This prevents the electrode from annealing. Check the welding
current setting and correct for the welding task in hand.
