iv. Choose the “√” to indicate “Yes” to using a spool gun.
v. Push in the MULTI-FUNCTION ADJUSTMENT/SELECTION KNOB to
confirm your selection.
c. Preflow – You can set a time amount for how long you would like the welder to flow
gas prior to the arc starting. Some operators like to have the shielding gas covering
the area at the start of the arc to minimize arc starting issues and possible
contamination. Set in increments of .1 second (not needed for Flux Core welding).
d. Run-In WFS – You can slow down how fast the wire is traveling while the arc is
getting established. Usually this is a setting you would not adjust. However, if you
have popping at the start, using this adjustment could minimize that pop at the start.
Set as a percentage of the welding wire speed.
e. Postflow– You can set a time amount for how long you would like the welder to flow
gas after the arc. Some operators like to have the shielding gas covering the area
after the arc has terminated to minimize to avoid contamination by letting the arc pool
cool under shielding gas. Set in increments of .1 second (not needed for Flux Core
welding).
f. Trigger Hold
i. Spot time – Pull and Hold the trigger and the arc starts and then stops at a
preset time. Use to make multiple spot welds of consistent size and
penetration.
1. Counter-clockwise to decrease spot time.
2. Clockwise to increase spot time.
ii. 2T – No Trigger Hold. Pull and hold the trigger to weld. Release the trigger to
stop welding.
iii. 4T – Tap the trigger once to start the arc, tap the trigger again to end the arc.
This setting is often used for operators that have long similar welds that they
perform. The Trigger Hold allows them the flexibility to not have to hold the
trigger during long welds.
13. If you wish, you can save these weld parameters for easy access later.
