4.2 Connecting cable

CAUTION

Avoid the connecting cable to get wet.

If there is a chance of getting the cable exposed to rain or water splay,

make sure to protect the connection with waterproof cover.

Water seeping into the machine may degrade the insulation between ter-

minals, which may cause an error or damage this product or wire feeder.

4.2.1 About connecting cable

The connecting cable (separately sold) is useful to

expand the working space in welding operation.

(See the table on the right for model numbers.)

Apply the connecting cable between torch output terminal

(+) of the product and the torch cable of the wire feeder.

* Depending on work conditions, it may be necessary to

extend the base metal cable.

Note

It is not possible to use the connecting cable as a junction

cable.

4.2.2 Cautions about using connecting cable

Select a model properly and use connecting cable

properly, or adverse impact on welding operation, such as

voltage drop, may result. Voltage drop may be resulted

from the reactance caused by the conductor resistance or

cable routing manner. The longer the cable is or smaller

the cross section is, the more likely an adverse impact

occurs.

To minimize such adverse impact, pay attention to the fol-

lowing points.

• Relationship among extending length, cross section,

allowable current and duty cycle.

Configuration

Caution against getting the cable wet.
