Hi there . My welding helmet has 3 settings, grind , 5 to 9 and 9 to 13 . It is auto darkening. IFL 9801. I will be welding my old campervan using 0.6 wire with an rtech 180 mig at 63A . The question is can I use the lower 5 to 9 shade settings or do I have to use the higher range of shade settings. The instructions really say the lowest to go would be shade 10 but the guy in the welding shop says the lower setting set at 9 would be ok.
I have previously used an old auto darkening helmet and just goes really Dark and can't see a thing.
