Controls
1. Output Voltage Control—The Hot Max infinite
setting output voltage control knob adjusts to any
setting from 25 to 175 amps. Additionally, the
voltage can be adjusted while welding.
2. Power On/Off Switch—A light within the switch
will be illuminated and the cooling fan will run
when the power is on.
3. Speed Control—Controls the wire feed speed.
The control can be preset on the dial to the setting
specified on the application chart located inside the
wire feed section door.
4. Overload Indicator—This LED comes on to indi-
cate the duty cycle had been exceeded. Output will
be shut off until the unit has cooled to an accepta-
ble operating temperature. The fan will continue to
run.
9. Gun Trigger—Pressing the trigger activates the
welding output, wire feed and gas operation. Re-
leasing the trigger stops the welding output, wire
feed and gas operation. Releasing the trigger also
starts the burn back function to prevent the weld-
ing wire from sticking to the working weld.
10. Overload Breaker—This breaker protects the unit
from damage due to exceeding the maximum out-
put. The breaker pops out when tripped and must
be pushed in to be reset.
