K285 Used in Horizontal Fillet Applications

1.

With K148 or K148/K149 combination - After the

 

K285 has been attched to the nozzle body:

 

a. Set the head and nozzle to the desired electrode

 

angle.

 

b. Loosen the two hold down screws that hold the

 

nozzle to the faceplate and rotate the entire

 

assembly 40 to 45° and retighten the screws.

 

c. Feed the electrode to the proper stickout and

 

position it in the joint.

 

d. Slide the K285 flux cone dowm to about 1/8”

 

(3.0mm) away from both the vertical and horizon-

 

tal plates and tigten the wing screw. See Figure

C.12.

With the K129 Tiny Twin-Arc® No zle - After the

 

K285 has been attached to the nozzle body:

a. Set the head and nozzle to the desired electrode angle.

b. Feed the electrode theough the tips to the proper stickout and place the nozzle into the welding position.

c. Loosen the K285 hose clamps and rotate the flux cone unit about 40 to 45° and retighten the clamps.

d. Slide the K285 flux cone dowm to about 1/8” (3.0mm) away from both the vertical and horizon- tal plates and tigten the wing screw. See Figure C.12.

K285 in Deep Narrow Gap Applications

For narrow, deep groove welds it may be necessary to remove the copper cone from the moveable arm of the K285

In Horizontal fillet pplications, the flux hopper NOTE: will not function properly if fastened to the faceplate of the wire drive. Mount the Flux hopper directly above the K285 flux entry point. Flux hose angles should be no greater than 35° to ensure good flux flow from the

hopper to the cone.
