Setup
For typical system connections refer to
Section 8-1.
Rotate Mode Switch to Sick-Output-On
position as shown.
The open circuit voltage is shown in the Left
Display and the preset amperage is shown
in the Right Display.
Operation
The Adjust Control is used to set desired
preset amperage.
Adaptive Hot Start automatically increases
welding amperage at the start of a weld.
This helps eliminate electrode sticking dur-
ing arc initiation.
. For best results at the end of the weld,
pull back the electrode quickly to extin-
guish the arc.
Arc Control − Dig
Dig control allows the arc characteristics,
soft versus stiff, to be changed for specific
applications and electrodes. The star set-
ting is good for most applications. Use soft
settings (0 to 25) for smooth running elec-
trodes like E7018. Use stiff settings (0 to
25) for penetrating electrodes like E6010.
