GMAW SHIELDING GAS HOOKUP

WARNING

Gas under pressure is explosive. Always keep gas cylinders in an upright position and chained to the undercarriage or a stationary support. See American National Standard Z-49.1, “Safety In Welding And Cutting”, published by the American Welding Society.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Customer must provide a cylinder of shielding gas, a pressure regulator, a flow control valve, and a hose from the flow valve to the gas inlet fitting of the LN-742. Install per Figure A.6 and the following:

1.Connect the supply hose from the gas cylinder flow valve outlet to the 5/8-18 female inert gas fitting on the back panel of the LN-742.

2.Install the barbed fitting and union nut to the 5/8-18 female inert gas fitting on the front of the LN-742. Connect 3/16 in. (4.8 mm) I.D. gas hose from the gun to the barbed fitting.

When the gun is to be removed, this fitting can be easily detached by loosening the union nut.

The LN-742 can be used with any shielding gas recommended in the electrode’s product literature at a maximum pressure of 60 psi (4.1 bar). This may include gasses such as Argon, Helium and Nitrogen and blended gases such as Ar-He, Ar-N2, Ar-O2,Ar-

CO2, CO2, AR-CO2,-O2.
