GUN AND CABLE ASSEMBLIES WITH STANDARD CONNECTION

The Power Feed 10 wire feeder is equipped with a factory installed K1500-2 gun connection Kit. This kit is for guns having a Tweco™ #2-#4 connector. The Power Feed 10 has been designed to make connect- ing a variety of guns easy and inexpensive with the K1500 series of gun connection kits. Gun trigger and dual procedure lead connections connect to the single 5 pin receptacle on the front of the feed head box. See “Gun Adapters” in ACCESSORIES section.

GUN AND CABLE ASSEMBLIES WITH FAST-MATECONNECTION

(including the Magnum 450 Water Cooled gun)

A K489-7 adapter will install directly into the wire drive feedplate, to provide for use of guns with Fast-Mate™ or European style gun connections. This K489-7 will handle both standard Fast-Mate™and Dual Schedule Fast-Mate™ guns.

Another way to connect a gun with a Fast-Mate™ or European style gun connector to the Power Feed 10, is to use the K489-2 Fast-Mate™ adapter kit. Installation of this adapter also requires a K1500-1 gun connector. See “Gun Adapters” in ACCES- SORIES section.
