Contact your distributor for the mm2 equivalent weld cable sizes. S-0007-E 3-9. Connecting To Weld Output Terminals Ref. ST-800 040 Tools Needed: Use ONLY one negative weld output terminal at a time. 1 2 3 3/4 in 1 Positive (+) Weld Output Terminal 2 A Negative (–) Weld Output Terminal (Low Range) 3 B Negative (–) Weld Output Terminal (High Range) For DC Electrode Positive (DCEP), connect work cable to negative (–) terminal that supplies desired amperage range. Connect electrode holder cable to positive (+) terminal. For DC Electrode Negative (DCEN), reverse cable connections. OM-201 444 Page 16 3-10.

ST-800 042 12 Jumper links allow operation on different input voltages and are factory set for the highest input voltage. Check input voltage available at site. Open rear panel access door to check jumper links. 1 Input Voltage Label – Only One Is On Unit Look at jumper links and compare link position with unit label. 2 Input Voltage Jumper Links Move links to match input voltage. For example, use 230 volts position when 230 volts input power is available. Close door or go on to 3-12B. 220 VOLTS S-021 148-A L1 L2 L3 380 VOLTS L1 L2 L3 440 VOLTS L1 L2 L3 OM-201 444 Page 18 B.

Open rear panel access door. 1 Line Disconnect Device Of Proper Rating 2 Input Conductors 3 Grounding Conductor Select size and length using 3-11. Conductor rating must comply with national, state, and local electrical codes. Use lugs of proper amperage capacity and correct hole size. 4 Strain Relief Connector Insert conductors through strain relief. 5 Input Terminal Board 6 Line Terminals 7 Welding Power Source Ground Terminal Connect grounding conductor to ground terminal first. Then connect input conductors to line terminals. 8 Disconnect Device Ground Terminal Install and connect grounding conductor and input conductors in conduit or equivalent to deenergized line disconnect device. Connect grounding conductor first, then line input conductors. Be sure grounding conductor goes to an earth ground. Close rear panel door. 9 Overcurrent Protection Select type and size using 3-11. Install into deenergized line disconnect device (fused disconnect switch shown). 3/8, 7/16, 1/2 in ssb2.4 1/94 – ST-800 042-A OM-201 444 Page 19 SECTION 4 – OPERATION 4-1.
