3. SPd is displayed in the upper right Volts window.
The left Amps window matches the desired wire
feed speed that is set on the wire feeder. Adjust the
Output knob until desired number is displayed.
4. Start welding. If the arc length is too short turn the
Output knob up. If the arc length is too long turn
the Output knob down.
The Arc Control which is displayed in the right digital
window can be used to fine-tune the arc length and
characteristics.
5. After all adjustments have been made press and
hold the Memory button until the display changes.
The right and the left window will display a memory
position, lets say M1(or turn knob to select memory
of your choice. To store in M1 push the Memory
button again to save the Pulse Mig mode to memo-
ry M1.

desired welding process mode is displayed in right
digital window. Then follow steps 2 thru 6.
8. Adjust the output control to the correct wire feed
setting and the V450-PRO (CE) is ready to weld
again. (Note: The wire feed speed setting is not
stored in memory and will need to be reset.)
9. Adjust the Arc Control and note that the M1 goes
away indicating that the V450-PRO (CE) settings
no longer match what is stored in memory. Going
back to the original settings will not bring the M1
back. You will need to push the Memory button to
recall the original settings in M1.
Note: After all memory ’ s M1 thru M8 are used and the
welder needs to store another welding process, a new
welding process will overwrite what was originally in
the memory and will read,
Save to MEM
M1 Overwrite
M1 which stored Pulse Mig is Overwritten with the
new welding process.
