3.1 OPERATION CONTROLS.
The equipment can be started up once the electrical supply installation has been carried out. This section
describes the control and regulation system of the GALA 1600 G.E. equipment.

Description of use.
Green luminous diode. Start-up indicator, "ON".
WELDING PROCESS SELECTOR:
ELECTRODE MODE. In this mode, the HOT START, ARC FORCE, and ANTI-
STICKING functions will be available. Electrode welding is easier and more effective
using these.
WELDING PROCESS SELECTOR:
TIG MODE. This work mode is ideal for TIG welding. It allows striking while
establishing low currents when the electrode touches the piece (LIFT ARC), thus
avoiding contamination of the piece and the electrode. The electrode anti-sticking
system, as well as arc force and hot start are nullified.
Control potentiometer of the welding current value.
Amber coloured luminous diode.
overheating or disconnection due to existence of an electrical supply voltage, which
is outside the nominal range.
Positive pole connector for the welding voltage.
Negative pole connector for the welding voltage.
