Some wire electrodes (e.g. self-shielding cored wire) are welded using negative polarity. In this
case, the welding current lead should be connected to the "-" welding current socket, and the
workpiece lead should be connected to the "+" welding current socket. Observe the information
from the electrode manufacturer!

• Insert the end of the hose package through the strain relief of the hose package and lock by turning to
the right.
The strain relief for fastening the intermediate hose package is provided on the transport cart
used (see corresponding documentation).

turning to the right:
−
MIG/MAG cored wire: Welding current "-" connection socket
−
MIG/MAG standard: Welding current "+" connection socket
• Insert the control cable plug into the connection socket (14-pole) and secure with crown nut (the plug
can only be inserted into the connection socket in one position).
