WIRE FEED DRIVE ROLL KITS
NOTE: The maximum rated solid and cored wire sizes for each wire drive head and selected drive ratio is shown on the SPECIFICATIONS in the front of this section.
The electrode sizes that can be fed with each roll and guide tube are stenciled on each part. Check the kit for proper components.

PROCEDURE TO INSTALL DRIVE ROLL AND WIRE GUIDES
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.
• Do not touch electrically live parts such
as output terminals or internal wiring.
•When inching with gun trigger, electrode and drive mechanism are “hot” to work and ground and could remain energized several seconds after the gun trigger is released.
•Turn OFF input power at welding power source before installation or changing drive roll and/or guide tubes.
•Welding power source must be connected to system ground per the National Electrical Code or any applicable local codes.
•Only qualified personnel should perform this installation.
Observe all additional Safety Guidelines detailed throughout this manual.
10 Series Wire Drive Roll Kit Installation (KP1505 and KP1507)
1)Turn OFF Welding Power Source.
2)Pull open Pressure Door to expose rolls and wire guides.
3)Remove Outer Wire Guide by turning knurled thumb screws to unscrew from Feedplate.
4)Remove drive rolls, if any are installed, by pulling straight off shaft. Remove inner guide.
5)Insert inner Wire Guide, groove side out, over the two locating pins in the feedplate.
6)Install each drive roll by pushing over shaft until it butts up against locating shoulder on the drive roll shaft. (Do Not exceed maximum wire size rating of the wire drive).
7)Install Outer Wire Guide by sliding over locating pins and tightening in place.
8)Engage upper drive rolls if they are in the “open” position and close Pressure Door.
TO SET IDLE ROLL PRESSURE, see “Idle Roll Pressure Setting” in OPERATION.
GUN AND CABLE ASSEMBLIES WITH STANDARD CONNECTION
The 10 Series Wire Drive Heads each require a K1500 Gun Adapter installed See “Gun Adapters” in ACCESSORIES section. The
GMAW Guns
An expanding line of Magnum gun and cable assem- blies are available to allow welding with solid and cored electrodes using the GMAW process See the appropriate Magnum literature for descriptions of the 200 to 550 ampere air cooled gun and cables that are available. Gun cable lengths range from 10 ft. (3.0 m) to 25 ft. (7.6 m) and feed electrode sizes .025" (0.6
mm)to 3/32" (2.4 mm). The entire line of Magnum
Innershield Guns
K126 and K115 gun and cable assemblies are avail- able to allow welding with Innershield electrodes. Gun cable lengths range from 10 ft. (3.0 m) to 15 ft. (4.5 m) The 350 ampere K126 will feed electrode sizes .062 (1.6 mm) to 3/32" (2.4 mm). The 450 ampere K115 will feed 5/64" (2.0 mm) to 3/32" (2.4 mm) electrode.
Three smoke extraction gun and cable assemblies are available, 250 ampere K309, 350 ampere K206 and the 500 ampere K289. All gun cable lengths are 15 ft. (4.5 m). These guns will feed electrode sizes .062" (1.6 mm) to 3/32" (2.4 mm) and require the use of the K184 vacuum unit for use with the
