Position 3 Position for welding with low current or where the welding arc becomes stable. (eg TIG welding at low amps)
Position 4 Extreme photo detector sensitivity. Suitable for very low current welding or pipe welding where part of the arc is
Headband: Finding the right setting of detector
In order to find a suitable sensitivity setting for the detector, start
with the setting, before welding, in Position 2. This is a normal position that functions in the majority of situations. If the filter
does not darken during welding as desired, raise the sensitivity to
Position 3 or 4 until a definite shift to dark position takes place.
Viewing area:
Should a too high sensitivity be selected, it is possible that the
