FAQs

What welding processes does ARC170 support?

ARC170 supports MMA/Stick welding and Lift TIG. This gives you more flexibility for repair work, installation jobs, farm maintenance, and general field welding with one compact machine.

Can ARC170 run on both 115V and 230V power?

Yes. ARC170 supports 115V/230V dual voltage, so you can use it in different power environments more easily. This makes it a practical choice for home garages, small workshops, job sites, and mobile repair work.

Is ARC170 easy to use for beginners?

Yes. ARC170 is built for easy setup and easy control, making it a good fit for beginners, maintenance users, and DIY welders who want a simple machine for daily work.

What does Hot Start do?

Hot Start helps the arc strike more easily at the beginning of the weld. This makes arc starts smoother and helps reduce sticking when you first touch down with the electrode.

What does Anti-Stick do?

Anti-Stick helps prevent the electrode from overheating and sticking hard to the workpiece. If the rod sticks, it is easier to release, which helps reduce frustration, wasted rods, and interruptions during welding.

What is Self-Adaptive Arc Force, and why does it matter?

Self-Adaptive Arc Force automatically adjusts arc response based on welding condition. This helps keep the arc more stable, supports better penetration, and improves control when arc length changes during welding.

What warranty does ARC170 come with?

ARC170 comes with a 3-year warranty for added peace of mind. For full warranty terms, coverage details, and claim instructions, please visit our Warranty Policy page.

Can I return ARC170 if it is not the right fit for my needs?

Yes. We offer a 30-day hassle-free return policy for added peace of mind. For full return eligibility, conditions, and refund details, please visit our Return & Refund Policy page.
