WARNING
If the spot welds cannot be made as they were ori-
ginally using an electrical spot welding machine,
they should be replaced with plug welds after holes
have been drilled in the first panel.

IMPORTANT
To avoid damaging the vehicle's electric and elec-
tronic components, the battery and the earths of
any wiring harness near the weld area must be dis-
connected.
The earth of the welding machine must be placed
as close as possible to the weld area.

the basic instructions for structural bodywork repair
(see MR 400).
Lines (1) , (2) and (5) on the drawing show a butt weld
by continuous EGW welding.
The welds described in this procedure are all identical.WARNING
