    Connect the quick plug with electrode holder to the positive terminal and then tightened them up clockwise. 4.4 Workpiece Connection Connect the quick plug with earth clamp to the negative terminal on the front panel below. And then tighten them up. Access the earth clamp to the workpiece. Warning! It is forbidden to connect the workpiece to the welder with iron or other poor conductors.
  • Page 11: Procedure

    NOTES: When the welder works for a long time, the high temperature indicator will light. This means the inside temperature has exceeded its standard. And you must turn off the power immediately for a period until it recovers. * You have to wear canvas overalls and face mask to prevent from arc light and heat radiation.
