ARC CONTROL


		ARC FORCE			DESCRIPTION
		(Soft)-10.0 to			Arc Force adjusts the short cir-
		(Crisp)+10.0			cuit current for a soft arc, or for
					a forceful, driving arc. It helps
					to prevent sticking and shorting
					organic coated electrodes, par-
					organic coated electrodes, par-
					ticularity globular transfer types
					such as stainless and low
					hydrogen. Arc Force is espe-
					cially effective for root pass on
					pipe with stainless electrode
					and helps to minimize spatter
					for certain electrodes and pro-
					cedure as with low hydrogen,
					etc.

START OPTIONS

No arc ending options are active for SMAW (Stick) welding modes.

END OPTIONS

No arc ending options are active for SMAW (Stick) welding modes.

NOTE: When a remote control pot such as a K936-1 or -2 Hand Amptrol is connected, the left Control Knob adjusts the maximum arc amper- age while the remote pot adjusts the actual arc amperage from minimum to the preset maxi- mum.
