Welding, like mechanic-ing takes its toll on a feller.
I get what you are saying, im going to see if i can pedal it. Spent over 200 on the pedal and no clue if it will work. I guess setting the amperage on the machine will be the high limit?
I dont think mine has the scratch start option.

You are correct on setting the amperage, keep in mind the high side when you are just starting the bead is much higher than the high side mid bead. I run hot so I always set WFO on the pedal at just under out of control. Remember when TIG welding you can cool the puddle instantly with some rod. Once you get the hang of foot control you will never go back! It is like EFI! Hah! Good luck Frank!
