6. Instruccions de funcionament
6.1. Basic Welding Procedure
- Utilitzeu equip de protecció: Always wear a welding helmet, gloves, and appropriate protective clothing.
- Preparar la peça de treball: Clean the welding area on the workpiece to remove rust, paint, or grease.
- Colpeja un arc: Gently tap or scratch the electrode against the workpiece to initiate the arc. The Hot Start feature assists in easier arc ignition.
- Maintain Arc Length: Keep a consistent arc length, typically equal to the electrode's diameter.
- Move the Electrode: Move the electrode steadily along the joint, maintaining a consistent travel speed and angle. The Arc Force feature helps maintain a stable arc.
- Evitar que s'enganxi: If the electrode sticks, the Anti-Stick function will reduce the current to help free it.
- Finish Welding: Lift the electrode away from the workpiece to break the arc. Allow the weld to cool before cleaning.
6.2. Característiques clau
- Inici calent: Provides an initial surge of current to make arc striking easier, especially with difficult-to-start electrodes.
