CONNECTION TO L-TEC ADAPTED FEEDERS

Gun and cable assemblies which were assembled with a K466-5 connection kit will connect easily to an L-Tec feeder equipped with an L-Tec feeder connector assembly. L-Tec feeders require this connector assem- bly (similar to a Tweco adapter) to connect with a gun and cable.

a.Check that the adapter and feeder outgoing guide as well as the drive roll, are appropriate for the elec- trode size being used.

b.Fully push the brass connector end of the gun cable into the brass adapter on the outgoing side of the feeder wire drive. Secure the cable using the hand screw, set screw, or pin.

c.Insert the control cable plug from the feeder trigger circuit into the mating socket on the gun cable con- nector handle. For machines with a twist-lock trig- ger lead receptacle, if the L-Tec gun control cable does not easily connect with the socket, the gun control cable that came with the K466-5 kit can be used. To do this, cut off the gun control leads as close to the forked terminals as possible and skin back the leads 7/16” (11 mm). Remove the twist- lock plug from the L-Tec control cable and connect it to the K466-5 cable. Make sure the outer jacket of the connector is caught within the plug’s strain relief.
