– Set the Output Amperage Knob marked “A” (Fig. A) located at right of the front panel to an
appropriate setting based on the thickness and type of the metal being welded.
(Refer to Data Chart for actual settings)
.
3. Amperage (Foot Pedal) Output
– Same operation as the panel control but is used while the foot pedal is in use (Fig B).
4. Gas Flow
– The included regulator limits the shielding gas flow from the bottle and also displays how much gas is left
in the bottle. The Gas Flow Indicator Gauge is located on the left side and is generally set between 12 to 20 SCFH.
(Refer to Data Chart for actual settings)
. This is explained in
further detail in the Preparing to Weld section of this manual.
The gauge on the right indicates the pressure left in the tank.

– The Foot Pedal/Panel Control selection
switch is located in the center of the front panel and when set in the
‘Foot Pedal’ position, the Foot Pedal control is activated. When set to
