To be protected before welding, carefully check the switch to be on WELD mode.
• Internal sensitivity potentiometer : Sensitivity adjustment according to :
- Light ambient: Without welding, turn the sensitivity setting towards «max», then turn the sensitivity setting towards «low» until filter lightens.
2
- Welding process: «Max» position for low amperage TIG rpocess / Medium range for most application.
• Internal delay potentionmeter: Time to get the clear state back.
