3.2.1 Welding Mode
3.2.2 Carbon Gouging Mode
3.2.3 Remote Control (Optional)
• Push the welding/carbon gouging selection button
(11)
for selecting the welding mode. Welding LED
(14)
lights.
• Select the type of the electrode to be used via the selection button
(10)
. Select the rutile/basic)aluminium electrode mode for rutile, basic or
aluminium electrodes. Select the cellulosic electrode mode for cellulosic electrodes.
• Adjust the current cia current adjustment knob
(5)
.
• Below table can be used as a rough reference for mild steel electrodes. For exact parameters, please refer to the electrode manufacturer’s recommen-
dations.
• For better ignition turn the
HOT START
knob
(8)
clock-wise. Welding arc can drill the metal when it is very thin and
HOT START
is high.
•
ARC FORCE
is useful for electrodes which have tendency to stick into the weld pool during welding. Turning the knob
(9)
clock-wise will decrease
the tendency to stick. If
ARC FORCE
is adjusted too high, spatter increases.
• Start welding. You can observe welding current
(A)
and voltage
(V)
by current display
(6)
and voltage display
(7)
.
• Push the welding mode selection button
(11)
for selecting the carbon gouging mode. Carbon gouging LED
(15)
lights.
• Adjust the current via current adjustment knob

• It is possible to connect wireless or cable remote control unit. In this case, appropriate control socket must be installed onto the back cover by
a certified Magma Service.
• When the remote control connector is connected to the machine, ampere adjustment knob on the machine is disabled automatically and current
adjustment is made by the remote control.
