Important
Whenever working with the VAS 6321 A, make sure that the zinc coating is removed from the sheet metal without
leaving any residue. This should be done with nylon discs or similar at low speed in order to introduce as little heat as
possible into the sheet metal being machined.
8.3 Attaching the ground clamp with program 1
Important:
To avoid damage to the vehicle electronics, the vehicle’s electrical system must be disconnected from the power
source in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications before using the VAS 6321 A/13!
To establish a ground connection to the vehicle, you must plug the ground clamp with connection cable into the ground
socket on the PS, switch on the PS at the main switch and select program 1.
After switching on the PS, select program “GROUND” and
press “AUTO” on the panel.
Important:
To ensure the optimum safety conditions when
carrying out any work on the body panels, make sure that all
zinc coatings are removed without leaving any residue.
8.4 Welding on the ground clamp
Plug the MultiTool with connection cable into the Auto socket on the PS and insert the shrinking tool into the MultiTool. The
ground clamp can be welded onto a bare surface quickly and easily with the welding tip. To do this, place the ground clamp
on the sheet metal so that the lower ring (contact surface) lies flat. Press on the bolt of the ground clamp with the shrinking
tool. As soon as the welding tip of the bolt touches the bare panel, the automatic welding process starts – if you are working
in manual mode, you must trigger this process by pushing a button. The welded joint can be released quickly and easily by
turning the knurled screw.
Important:
With this type of ground connection, it must be ensured that the entire contact surface of the ground clamp lies
flat on the bare surface of the panel in order to avoid loss of performance, high wear/damage to the ground clamp and
damage to the panel!
