Bonded electrode (ANTI STICK)
If the electrode does not ignite, or the arc goes out while the electrode is being welded, it may s�ck
to the part to be welded. This situa�on is detected by the electronic board of the equipment and
the welding current is automa�cally reduced. This allows you to free the stuck electrode from the
surface to be welded by moving it back and forth.
While the electrode is a�ached, the warning indicator lights up
electrode holder and the ground is indicated in the same way. If the electrode cannot be detached,
remove the electrode holder and remove it manually using the appropriate protec�on and
tweezers. Be careful as the electrode can be very hot.
Duty cycle excess protec�on or thermal control device.
When there is protec�on by reaching the maximum duty cycle, or by internal hea�ng of the
machine, the arc is ex�nguished and the LED
illuminated, while the welder cools down to con�nue its normal opera�on. Do not turn off the
welder, allow the fans of the equipment to cool the machine's power components un�l the LED
light
turns off. Only un�l this moment can the machine be switched off or start welding agai n.
Note: to preserve the power components of the welding machine from heat accumula�on, do not
disconnect it immediately a�er ac�va�on of the protec�on, as described above .
