4.4 Connecting to Weld Output Terminals
Ref. ST-158 936-D / Ref. ST-175 918-C
1 Positive (+) Weld Output
Terminal
2 Negative () Weld Output
Terminal
For Direct Current Electrode Positi-
ve (DCEP), connect work cable to
Negative () terminal and electrode
cable (Stick) or torch cable (TIG) to
Positive (+) terminal.
For Direct Current Electrode Nega-
tive (DCEN), reverse cable con-
nections.
If unit has optional polarity switch,
connect work cable to Work
terminal and electrode or torch
cable to electrode terminal.
