Work Cable and Clamp
The work clamp must be attached to the workpiece while cutting. Ensure that the work clamp and the workpiece
make good metal-to-metal contact. Attach the work clamp as close as possible to the area being cut to reduce
exposure to electric and magnetic fields (EMF). Do not attach the work clamp to the portion of the workpiece
to be cut away!
