Functions when using 4 -stroke control of the welding torch.<br />

Slope down Gas postflow<br />

In 4--stroke control mode, pressing the trigger switch (1) starts gas preflow (if used).<br />

At the end of the gas preflow time, the current rises to the pilot level (a few<br />

amperes), and the arc is ignited. Releasing the trigger switch (2) increases the<br />

current to the set value (as controlled by the slope up function, if in operation). When<br />

the trigger switch is next pressed (3), the current is reduced to pilot level again (as<br />

controlled by the slope down function, if in operation). Releasing the switch again (4)<br />

extinguishes the arc and starts gas postflow.<br />

Start method<br />

HF<br />

The HF function ignites the arc by means of a spark produced when the electrode is<br />

brought closer to the workpiece.<br />

LiftArct<br />

The LiftArct function ignites the arc when the electrode is brought into contact with<br />

the workpiece and then lifted away from it.<br />

Igniting the arc using the LiftArc functiont. Step 1: the electrode is held against the workpiece. Step<br />

2: the trigger switch is pressed, and a low current starts to flow. Step 3: the welder lifts the electrode<br />

from the workpiece; the arc ignites, and the current rises automatically to the set value.
