Magnum 200 / 300 / 400 Guns

The easiest and least expensive way to use Magnum 200/300/400 guns with the Power Feed 10 Dual wire feeder is to order them with the K466-10 connector kit, or to buy a completely assembled Magnum gun hav- ing the K466-10 connector (such as the K497-21 dedi- cated Magnum 400).

Magnum 550 Guns

The easiest and least expensive way to use the Magnum 550 guns with Power Feed 10 Dual wire feeders is to order the gun with the K613-7 connector kit, and install a K1500-3 gun connection kit to the wire feeder.

Lincoln Innershield and Sub Arc Guns

All of these guns can be connected to the Power Feed by using the K1500-1 Adapter Kit.

Lincoln Fume Extraction Guns

The K556 (250XA) and K566 (400XA) guns require that a K489-2 Fast-Mate™ adapter kit be installed. Installation of this adapter also requires a K1500-1 gun connector kit.

The K206, K289, and K309 require only the installa- tion of a K1500-1 connector in the Power Feed wire feeder.

Non-Lincoln Guns

Most competitive guns can be connected to the Power Feed by using one of the K1500 series adapter kits, See “Gun Adapters” in ACCESSORIES section.

GENERAL GUN CONNECTION GUIDELINES

The instructions supplied with the gun and K1500 series gun adapter should be followed when installing and configuring a gun. What follows are some gener- al guidelines that are not intended to cover all guns.

a. Check that the drive rolls and guide tubes are proper for the electrode size and type being used. If not, change them.

b. Lay the cable out straight. Insert the connector on the welding conductor cable into the brass conductor block on the front of the wire drive head. Make sure it is all the way in and tighten the hand clamp. Keep this connection clean and bright. Connect the trigger control cable polarized plug into the mating 5 cavity receptacle on the front of the wire drive unit.

Note: for Fast-Mate and European connector style guns, connect gun to gun connector making sure all pins and gas tube line up with appropri- ate holes in connector. Tighten gun by turning large nut on gun clockwise.

c.For GMA Gun Cables with separate gas fittings, connect the 3/16” I.D. gas hose from the wire drive unit to the gun cable barbed fitting.

d.For water cooled guns see WATER CONNEC- TIONS in this section.
