PARALLELING

The CV-300 is not designed to be paralleled with any other power source.

CONNECTION OF AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT

TO THE WIRE FEEDER RECEPTACLE

Occasionally, it may be necessary to make connection to the circuits present in the 14-pin wire feeder recep- tacle. These circuits, such as the auxiliary voltage, contactor, and remote control circuits, may be accessed with a K867 Universal Adapter. This adapter plugs into the receptacle and provides the user with short wire leads for connections. Refer to the instructions provided with the K867, as well as the wiring diagram for the CV-300 power source, for details on making those connections. For your conve- nience, wire feeder connection details are shown in the DIAGRAM section.

NOTE: If you intend to use a standard Lincoln wire feeder, order the appropriate input cable for the specific feeder. It will make all of the con- trol and power connections between the CV- 300 and the wire feeder WITHOUT the need for a K867 Universal Adapter.
