Gas Preflow Time
After the gun trigger is closed, the gas valve
is turned on for the preflow time before the
gun is lifted and before the pilot arc is turned
on. This allows time for the air to purge
from the gas line to insure that a gas shield
is present before starting an arc.
If another weld is started while ga
due to the postflow timer, the preflow is
aborted and the weld starts immediately.

Gas Postflow Time
After the weld is complete, the gas valve is
held on for the postflow time. This provides
a gas shield while the weld solidifies and
begins to cools.

Pilot Arc Time
When the gun trigger is closed, the gun coil
is energized and the pilot arc is turned on.
After the pilot arc time expires, the main arc
is turned on. This allows the gun time to lift
before main current flows.
