Depends on if it stick or wirefeed. I don't know anything about stick, just wirefeed.
If using an auto darkening helmet, make sure the batteries are good, and that it's in fact on before you start... I made the mistake of not checking in between welds and mine auto shut off... Needless to say, it hurt
Just make sure your angle is correct, have enough power, and have enough wire going in. Through trial and much error, I figured out what happens when you weld too cold and don't have enough wire going in
Not enough power, and the arc skips around. No hope of solid welds. Doesn't hold worth crap either. Basically you end up about 2 steps away from absolute crap.
