TEST DESCRIPTION
The rocker is the part of the welding generator that supports and positions the 4 sets of
brushes. Its position can be adjusted to fine tune the weld output and influence the weld
characteristics.
Important: The rocker is set at the factory for the best overall performance and long gen-
erator and brush life. Altering this adjustment is normally not recommended unless one or
more of the welding generator components affecting this setting have been replaced. In
very unusual situations, very small adjustments of the rocker may be beneficial if the
machine is operating within the specified limits, but the Arc characteristics are unsatisfac-
tory for the desired application.
CAUTION: Improper rocker adjustment can result in poor performance, reduced
brush life and damage to the welding generator. This adjustment should
only be attempted by an experienced professional.
