Lincoln Electric IM530-C manual After YOU Finish the Weld

OPERATION

2.Select the appropriate electrode. See Table B.2 or the ELECTRODE SELECTION GUIDE on the machine Output Control Panel.

3.Attach the work clamp securely to the work you are welding.

4.Insert the electrode into the electrode holder.

5.Set the current control dial to the desired output current.

6.Start the gasoline engine. See ENGINE OPERATION in this section of the manual.

7.Strike an arc and begin welding.

AFTER YOU FINISH THE WELD:

1.Stop the gasoline engine. See ENGINE OPERATION in this section of the manual.

2.Allow the electrode and work to cool completely.

3.Remove the work clamp from the work.

4.Remove any remaining piece of electrode from the electrode holder.

5.If you are finished using the WELDANPOWER 125 for welding, disconnect the welding cables from the weld output terminals. Reattach the flange nuts and leave them on the terminals.

For DC+ welding, the electrode cable is to be connected to the “+” output stud and work cable to the “-” output stud. (For DC- welding, reverse these connections.)

Semi-automatic Wire Welding with a

Lincoln Wire Feeder/Welder

The Weldanpower 125 generator power can be used to supply up to 4,250 watts continuous input power to a Lincoln Wire Feeder/Welder. The Wire Feeder/ Welder is equipped with all the supplies needed for Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW). Also some Wire Feeder/Welders come equipped with the essentials needed for Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) or MIG processes, while others require the purchase of a conversion kit. These products are available where Lincoln products are sold. Contact your local authorized Lincoln representative for more details.

Plasma Cutting with Lincoln Pro-Cut 25.

The Weldanpower 125 generator power can be used to supply up to 4,250 watts continuous input power to a Pro-Cut 25. The Pro-Cut will work satisfactorily under the following conditions:

1.Set the Rheostat on the Weldanpower 125 to the 125 amp position. (Higher Settings may result in a shutdown of the Pro-Cut 25.)

2.Leave the "ON/OFF" switch on the Pro-Cut "OFF" until the Weldanpower 125 has been started and is at full operating speed.

120V Receptacle Operation:

•Set the Output Control on the Pro-Cut 25 no higher than the 15 amp position.( Higher settings may cause circuit breaker on the Weldanpower 125 to trip.)

•Maximum material thickness that can be cut is 1/4".

240V Receptacle Operation:

•The Pro-Cut 25 may be used for its full range of control.

•Maximum material thickness that can be cut is 3/8".
