Frequently asked questions
Do I need to buy a battery for the ADF filter Safe Guard?
No. The filter is powered by a built-in battery and a solar cell, so there is no separate battery to buy. It switches on and off by itself.
Can I TIG weld at low current?
Yes. The manufacturer rates it for TIG above 2 A.
What happens if the filter electronics fail?
The filter still protects against UV and IR radiation at shade 13. If the filter does not darken when the arc strikes, stop welding immediately and contact us.
How do I switch on grind mode?
The MODE button switches between WELD, CUT and GRIND. The SHADE button sets shade 5-8 or 9-13.
