Connection of welding and return cable

The power source has two outputs, a positive terminal (+) and a negative terminal
(--), for connecting welding and return cables. The output to which the welding cable
is connected depends on the welding method or type of electrode used.
Connect the return cable to the other output on the power source. Secure the return
cable's contact clamp to the work piece and ensure that there is good contact be-
tween the work piece and the output for the return cable on the power source.
For MMA welding, the welding cable can be connected to the positive terminal (+) or
negative terminal (--) depending on the type of electrode used. The connecting polar-
ity is stated on the electrode packaging.
