Terminal (High Range)

 

For DC Electrode Positive (DCEP), connect work cable to negative (–) terminal that supplies desired am- perage range. Connect electrode holder cable to positive (+) terminal.

For DC Electrode Negative (DCEN), reverse cable connec- tions.

Use ONLY one negative weld output terminal at a time.
