1. Attach the wire feeder’s welding current cable to the plus (+) connector of the
power source. Hand tighten the connector with a clockwise push and twist action to
lock.
2. Attach the wire feeder control cable plug to the control socket of the power source.
3. Connect the shielding gas hose to the gas bottle or to the shielding gas distribution
system.
Normally the wire feeder should be connected to the plus (+) pole. However, with
some ller wires and shielding gases, you should connect it to the minus (-) pole, and the
earth return cable to the plus pole.

Attach the earth return cable to the minus (–) connector. Hand tighten the connector
with a clockwise push and twist action to lock.
Attach the other end of the earth return cable to the workpiece before welding.
When attaching the earth return clamp to the work piece, remember to clean the
work piece surface so as to achieve safe and undisturbed operation.
