provided. The shorter cable is used for the Work Cable and is located
in the front of the machine lower hole as shown below.
Electrode and Work Cable Replacement
Substitution of cables with larger sizes requiring connections to be
made internally is not recommended. Connections for additional
lengths or larger sizes should be properly made externally. Lincoln
Electric QD (Quick Disconnect) connectors are available for this
purpose.
If either cable requires replacement for other reasons, they should be
replaced with the appropriate Lincoln parts— and only by qualified
personnel.
Important Safety Note: Make sure insulation is secure and that
screws are tight and cannot be touched. If screw can be touched,
DO NOT USE HOLDER, contact your distributor.
