3. Adjusting Amperage Or Voltage
. On some welding power
sources, the front panel output
control setting does not matter
and the Remote Hand Control
adjusts the full range of the
welding power source output.

Place switch in On position for open-circuit
voltage. When switch is in Off position no
output is present.
In Example: Min = 5 A
Output = 200 A (100% of 5 to 200)
Max = 200 A
