I'm inclined to agree with TomTex that the third and fourth knobs down are for stitch welding. Possibly they work together so that the third knob down controls the amount of time on and the fourth controls the amount of time off.

I have a video from a company named HTP America that sells welders and related products which seem to be focused on the auto shop, custom car, and car racing industries. Their more expensive MIG welders have multiple knobs that can be set to produce amazing variations of stitch welding and related procedures by going through insanely complicated sequences of settings. If the knobs on your welder can be adjusted to produce results like the HTP welders supposedly can, I'd rate it unlikely that you'll even be able to scratch the surface of its capabilities without getting your hands on some instructions.

All the best, Stan

Then what does the 5th dial(t) do?

From what your thinking then would dial #5 set the time on of the trigger(wire) event?

I like your explantion of dials #3 and #4 but then we slide the mode switch to dial#5 which is independant of dials #3 & #4. That confuses me.

Or is this just a fit up machine, tacking only? Would make sense?

OR setting dial#3 and dial#4 for the on/off times of the spot welding mode and then slide the switch to Dial#5 to adjust the continous welding mode.

Then look again at the center slide switch pictoral on dial #4. Doesn't that symbol indicate a continous mode?

I bet if we all could be there to play with the machine, it'd hit us between the eyes what each dial is for really quick.

Dial#3 sets the on time, Dial#5 set the off time and is set for the spot weld mode thus the symbol of a dot.

Dial#4 is the weld mode and is a inductance control.

I would agree that the slide switch appears to be a mode switch.

According to the slide switch pictoral;
position 1) you can have only top dial control

position 2) you have both 1st and 2nd dial control. I would say you set dial#1 then slide the switch to the middle then set dial#2 for a combinded output effect.

Position 3) you have 3rd dial control only. I'm having a problem with this dial. I've thought of several ideas but they all include a external power head of some sort and there's no place to add in a external power lead?

Linde used simular symbols for inductance and slope control on some there wire machines just like dial #1 and dial #2 has.

3rd dial control for spot welding, then there's no main lead connection point for a spot weld head. So where would you hook this spot weld head up? Unless we can't see more control output options toward the bottom of the case?

If the machine contains two gas solenoid valves then one would be Co2 choice and the other AR choice. I can see this as then you only need to change the wire type and flip the switch for the correct gas.

More pictures Glenn of the back and sides? Maybe that will clear up some confusion and besure to open compartment doors if you will.
