Processes

Built-in arc control lets you get in tight without sticking

the electrode.

Hot Start™ makes it easy to start difficult stick electrodes such

as E-6010 and E-7018.

Enclosed circuit boards provide additional protection from

contaminants resulting in longer service life.

Thermal overload protection light indicates power shutdown.

Helps prevent machine damage if the duty cycle is exceeded

or airflow is blocked.

Fan-On-Demand™ cooling system operates only when needed,

reducing noise, energy use and the amount of contaminates

pulled through the machine.

115 V duplex receptacle provides 15 amps of auxiliary power.

Power efficient for exceptional value and return on

your investment.

Remote control capability.

Optional digital volt and amp meters. Easy to install,

front-panel mount. 300359 for models after KG283595 and

300321 for models after MF100119C.
