SECTION 11 – STICK WELDING (SMAW) GUIDELINES

11-1. Stick Welding Procedure

stick 12/96 – ST-151 593

 Weld current starts when

electrode touches work-

piece.

 Weld current can damage

electronic parts in vehicles.

Disconnect both battery

cables before welding on a

vehicle. Place work clamp as

close to the weld as possible.

1 Workpiece

Make sure workpiece is clean be-

fore welding.

2 Work Clamp

3 Electrode

A small diameter electrode requires

less current than a large one. Fol-

low electrode manufacturer’s

instructions when setting weld am-

perage (see Section 11-2).

4 Insulated Electrode Holder

5 Electrode Holder Position

6 Arc Length

Arc length is the distance from the

electrode to the workpiece. A short

arc with correct amperage will give

a sharp, crackling sound.

7 Slag

Use a chipping hammer and wire

brush to remove slag. Remove slag

and check weld bead before mak-

ing another weld pass.
