Hi - if you have added the gas lens for extra cover on a long stick out I'd keep the flow rate the same ( though it's on the low side depending on position of weld / amps / material & stillness of air ) but if welding with a conservative stick out you can normally drop flow rate about 30% - in view of how low your running at the moment I probably would'nt though.
