7. Hot-start
MMA-function
Hot-start is a function which can be used to help
establish the arc when starting to weld. This can
be achieved by increasing the initial current by a
certain percentage in relation to the set value,
when the electrode is applied to the workpiece.
This increased initial current is reduced
exponentially in relation to the set welding
current within approx. 0.5 seconds. The hot-start
value is the percentage value by which the initial
current is increased, and can be set between 0
% and 100 %.
8. Welding current
Use this knob to control welding current from
min. 5 A to maximum welding current, as shown
in the digital display (pos. 3).
