SMAW WELDING

Most SMAW welding procedures use Electrode
Positive welding. For these applications, connect the
stick electrode holder to the positive (+) output stud
and connect the work clamp to the negative (-) output
stud.
Some SMAW welding procedures use Electrode
Negative Polarity. For these applications, connect the
stick electrode holder to the negative (-) output stud
and connect the work clamp to the positive (+) output
stud.
