Starting current time
HotStart
0.0 - 2.0 s
Factory setting: 0.5 s
To obtain optimum welding results, it will sometimes be necessary to adjust the HotStart
function.
Benefits:
- Improved ignition properties, even when using electrodes with poor ignition properties
- Better fusion of the base material in the start-up phase, meaning fewer cold-shut de-
fects
- Largely prevents slag inclusions
Break-voltage
Welding voltage limitation
20 - 90 V
Factory setting: 20 V
The arc length depends on the welding voltage. To end the welding process, it is usually
necessary to significantly lift the rod electrode away from the workpiece. With this param-
eter, the welding voltage can be limited to a value that makes it possible to end the welding
operation simply by slightly lifting the rod electrode.
NOTE!
If, during welding, you often find that the welding operation is ended unintentionally,
increase the value of the break-voltage parameter.
Anti-stick
on / off
Factory setting: on
As the arc becomes shorter, the welding voltage may drop so far that the rod electrode will
tend to stick. This may also cause the rod electrode to burn out.
Electrode burn-out is prevented by activating the anti-stick function. If the rod electrode be-
gins to stick, the power source immediately switches the welding current off. After the rod
electrode has been detached from the workpiece, the welding process can be continued
without any problems.
