BURNBACK
CONTROL
(OptionaU
The

provides
a
means
of
keeping
the
welding
wire
from
sticking
to
the
workpiece
after
the

The
burnback
capability
in
this
control/feeder
will,
depending
upon
the
setting
of
the
BURNBACK
control,
keep
weld
current
present
on
the
welding
wire
from
0
to
15
cycles
after
the
wire
has
stopped

This
delay
action
will
permit
the

wire
to
burn
back
to
a
point
where
it
will
neither
stick
to
the
workpiece
nor

If
