5.2.3 Arcforce
During the welding process, arcforce prevents the electrode sticking in the weld pool with increases in
current. This makes it easier to weld large-drop melting electrode types at low current strengths with a
short arc in particular.

5.2.4 Antistick
The Antistick feature prevents the electrode from annealing.
Should the electrode stick despite the Arcforce feature, the machine au-
tomatically 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.
