This display is shown for a few seconds followed
by another display that depends on the overlay

ture situation occurs. Output is disabled until the
machine cools down. At that point the light goes
out and output is enabled again.
4. REMOTE CONTROL AMPHENOL RECEPTACLE:
Allows remote current control during stick welding
via a hand or foot Amptrol accessory.
5. 5 AMP CIRCUIT BREAKER: Protects two auxiliary
power circuits: the 24V supply used by the trigger

blade screw driver to adjust the viewing angle of
the LCD display.
