4. Connect the copper shoe of the grounding cable to a bare
point on the bodywork to be welded. Use lever clamp
provided or a mole wrench.
Before using the lever clamp, you have to weld on
two 8 mm washers as close to the point of weld as
possible, (see 6.9.2)!
In this case, press the copper shoe of the grounding
cable firmly onto the metal sheet. This is the only way
to obtain a good current transfer.
Attention!
The copper shoe must always be connected to the metal sheet below the metal part of
the body to be worked on.
In any case avoid current transfer via hinges, door and bonnet locks, as these might
otherwise be damaged! (see 6.9)
