Weld current starts when

Weld current can damage

Disconnect both battery
cables before welding on a
vehicle. Place work clamp
as close to the weld as
possible.
.
Always wear appropriate per-
sonal protective clothing.

Arc Length
Arc length is the distance from the
electrode to the workpiece. A short

a sharp, crackling sound.
