• Digital display as standard that allows precise setting of the
welding current.
• Switch with two welding processes: electrode and TIG.
• Electrode Antisticking function.
•
Automatic “Hot Start” function which helps to achieve fast
and reliable arc striking.
•
Automatic “Arc Force” function to avoid electrode/piece stick-
ing during welding. It also promotes a reduction in the spat-
ter generated by the welding process.
• TIG welding with “Lift” striking.
• It has an IP 23 S protection class so that it can be used un-
der the heaviest working conditions.
•
The generator also conforms to all European Union stan-
dards and directives in force.

Description
ROCK is a welding machine with inverter technology that can
be used, for professional welding, with rutile and basic elec-
trodes. It is extremely easy to use, guarantees excellent weld-
ing results and can be used anywhere thanks to its compact
size and reduced weight (workshops, maintenance, construc-
tion sites, etc.). The main characteristics of the ROCK weld
-
ing machine are:
• Reduced weight and size, easy-to-carry.
•
The weld machine has a strong handle all in one with the
frame, used for transporting the machine manually only.
•
The welding machine is also equipped with an adjustable and
removable shoulder strap that allows for easy and comfort-
able carrying on the shoulder.
•
The welding machine is equipped with a 3m ground cable
and electrode holder.
