MMA WELDING (ELECTRODE)
• Apply the usual welding rules.
• Leave the machine connected to the power supply after welding in order to let it cool down.
• Thermal protection : in case of over-heating the thermal protection light turns on. The cooling time is about 2 to 5 min
according to external temperature.
Advice :
• Respect welding polarities and currents indicated on the electrode packaging.
• Remove the electrode from the electrode holder when you do not use it.
• Leave the ventilation grill free to allow in/out air circulation.
