Recalling a Memory with Memory Buttons

To recall a memory, press one of the four memory buttons. The memory is recalled when the button is released.

Do not hold the button for more than 2 seconds.

The Weld Mode Search feature allows the selection of a welding mode based on certain crite-
ria (wire size, process type, etc.).

SEARCHING FOR A WELD MODE

• To search for a mode, press and release the control knob while the WELD MODE indicator is lit. Another way

to search for a mode is to turn the control knob until “Weld Mode Search” is displayed. This will appear in be-

tween the highest and the lowest weld mode number.

• Once “Weld Mode Search” is displayed, pressing the right pushbutton labeled “Begin” will start the search

process.

• During the search process, pressing the right pushbutton typically acts as a “next” button and the left pushbut-

ton typically acts as a “back” button. Pressing the control knob also acts as a “next” button.

• Rotate the control knob then press to select relevant welding details such as welding process, wire type, wire

size, etc.

• When the final selection is made, the Cruiser™ Tractor will automatically change to the weld mode found by

the Weld Mode Search process.

• Earlier products may not have this feature. To activate this feature, a software update may be needed from
