or the rocker. As a prerequisite, function F5 must be preset to A or C. The wire feed-in rate on the welding
torch handle is set using function F4.
If feeding in the wire using a soft start, function F3 must be set. The wire feed then starts slowly at a rate of
0.5 m/min. After two seconds, the feed rate increases to the rate set in F4.
The applicable parameter settings can be found in the following table:
