Welding Precaution
SMCS - 1000

Proper welding procedures are necessary in order to avoid damage to the engine Electronic Control
Module (ECM), to the Clean Emissions Module (CEM), if equipped, to sensors, and to associated
components. Also consider components that are for the driven equipment. Remove the component
that requires welding. When welding on an engine that is equipped with an ECM and removal of
the component is not possible, the following procedure must be followed. This procedure provides
the minimum amount of risk to the electronic components.
1. Stop the engine. Remove the electrical power from the ECM.
2. Ensure that the fuel supply to the engine is turned off.
3. Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery. If a battery disconnect switch is installed,
open the switch.
4. Disconnect all electronic components from the wiring harnesses. Electronic components include the
following components:
Electronic components for the driven equipment
The engine ECM
Sensors

NOTICE
Do NOT use electrical components (ECM or sensors) or electronic
component grounding points for grounding the welder.

5. When possible, connect the welder ground clamp directly to the engine component that will be
welded. Place the clamp as close as possible to the weld. A close connection will reduce the
possibility of welding current damage to the engine bearings, to the electrical components, and to
other components.
6. Protect the wiring harnesses from welding debris and/or from the welding spatter.
7. Use standard welding procedures to weld the materials together.
