weld (min. 6 seconds). Simply start welding and let QSett find the correct
parameter settings.

Material selection

Since different materials have different heat dispersion it is necessary to select the
right material group (H) so that a correct plate thickness value can be calculated.
Plate thickness setting
Set the plate thickness of the object you want to weld using the plate thickness
setting knob (I). This knob sets the wire feed speed (C). A suitable voltage setting is
automatically calculated by QSett. The recommended plate thickness for the set
wire feed speed is displayed simultaneously (D). The plate thickness
recommendation is calculated for a fillet weld using the following wire dimensions:
Fe/Ss and CuSi --

should set a slightly higher value for plate thickness than what you are going to weld.
If you use a larger diameter wire set a slightly lower value.
Heat input adjustment
The heat input can be adjusted with the QSett knob (F) in steps from --9 to +9 to
make the weld hotter or colder. A higher value gives a hotter, more concave, weld
(longer arc length) for more penetration. A lower value gives a colder, more convex,
weld (shorter arc length) to prevent burning through the welded material. Typically
the QSett value should be set to 0 which gives you an average heat input that is
suitable in most cases. The heat input setting is symbolised with a thermometer
indicating hotter or colder settings.

Setting the dynamics (Fe/SS)

In certain cases especially for mild steel welding in different gases the quality of
welding may be improved by changing the dynamics of the Caddy
