OPERATION

B-27

POWER WAVE

®

C300

• The

Power

Wave

®

C300 is now configured and

ready to weld in the synergic mode.

• Adjustment of the SPD value from the set value

has the affect of adjusting trim or arc length.

• To increase the arc length; increase the SPD

value at the Power Wave

®

C300 to a value

higher than the actual WFS.

Remember; do not change the WFS at the spool
gun.

• To decrease the arc length; decrease the SPD

value at the Power Wave

®

C300 to a value lower

than the actual WFS.

Remember: The dialed in SPD value at the Power
Wave

®

C300 does not control the WFS at the spool

gun. Rather, it is adjusting the Power Wave

®

C300

synergic work point. Therefore, adjusting the SPD
value will not change your actual WFS at the spool
gun. WFS can only be changed at the spool gun.

an indicator reading of 0-2. A recommended start

Trim at the Power Wave

trol knob located on the upper case front panel.

knob on the Torch. The left control knob on the
Power Wave

being set at the torch is displayed on the Power

®

C300.
