When set on Max., the electrode feeds at more than 500” per minute and the welding current is high. If the power source is equipped with meters, the welding current can be read directly on the ammeter while welding. If the power source has no meters and the relationship between current and wire feed speed is known, current can be accurately set by measuring the wire feed speed. To measure wire feed speed disconnect the electrode cable at the power source: 1. Press the gun trigger and feed ele
