A battery box for an engine driven welding machine slides in an opening in the welding machine base between closed and open positions. When the battery box is in the closed position, a battery secured to a battery box is concealed inside the base. When the battery box is in the open position, the battery is exposed for servicing. Panels assembled to the base define an opening in the base. The panels cooperate with the base floor to form slots in which the battery box slides. The panels and base floor provide a cantilever support for the battery box when it is in the open position. A finger hole in the battery box is surrounded on one side by a small housing that keeps foreign material out of the machine base when the battery box is in the closed position.
