 Welding cables should be fitted with proper cable
connections. Do not make temporary or taped joints
on damaged cables (use male female connector.
 Keep welding cables clear of equipment and
materials which could cause damage to them.
 Do not leave the cable coiled on the machine – it will
alter the current flow and disturb the welding process,
cable might also burn.
