MAKING A WELD WITH THE SPOOL GUN

ADAPTER KIT AND SPOOL GUN

INSTALLED

CAUTION

In either toggle switch position, closing either gun trigger will cause the electrode of both guns to be electrically “HOT”. Be sure unused gun is posi- tioned so electrode or tip will not contact metal case or other metal common to work.

1.Setting spool gun selector switch to the “Normal” position and pulling the trigger for the built-in feed- er gun.

Disables spool gun operation and spool gun gas solenoid valve.

Closing feeder gun trigger starts feeder gun welding and makes both electrodes electrically “HOT”.

2.Setting spool gun selector switch to the Spool Gun Position and pulling SPOOL GUN Trigger.

Disables built-in feeder gun operation and machine gas solenoid valve.

Enables spool gun operation and spool gun gas solenoid valve.

Closing spool gun trigger starts spool gun weld- ing and makes both electrodes electrically “HOT”.

3.Operation with POWER MIG 200:

Turn the POWER MIG-200 input power ON.

Adjusting the voltage tap control will increase or decrease your welding voltage.

Adjusting the wire speed control on the spool gun will increase or decrease the spool gun wire feed speed. NOTE: Adjusting the wire feed speed control on the Power Mig Panel has no affect on the spool gun’s wire feed speed.

4.Refer to the procedure decal on the Power Mig for initial aluminum settings. Make a test weld to deter- mine the final settings.

5.To return to normal POWER MIG 200 welding, release the spool gun trigger set spool gun selector switch to normal and reset feeder gun voltage pro- cedure setting if necessary.

IM693 specifications

Lincoln Electric IM693 is a cutting-edge multiprocess welding machine designed to cater to the needs of both industrial and commercial applications. Renowned for its versatility, this machine can perform MIG, TIG, and stick welding, making it an ideal choice for fabricators and manufacturers looking for a single solution for varied welding processes.

One of the standout features of the IM693 is its advanced inverter technology. This technology significantly enhances the efficiency of the welding process by reducing energy consumption while maximizing output. The inverter design allows for a more compact and lightweight unit compared to traditional transformers, making it easier to transport and maneuver in work environments.

The machine’s user-friendly interface is another compelling characteristic. It is equipped with a large, intuitive digital display that allows operators to quickly adjust settings for specific applications. The system is designed to provide real-time feedback on welding parameters, ensuring consistent and high-quality welds. This feature is particularly beneficial for both novice and experienced welders, facilitating a smoother workflow.

Additionally, Lincoln Electric IM693 incorporates advanced arc control technologies such as Soft Start and Auto Set features. Soft Start allows for a gradual ramp-up of the welding current, which minimizes spatter and leads to cleaner welds. The Auto Set feature intelligently adjusts the welder's settings based on the material type and thickness, taking the guesswork out of the welding process and improving overall efficiency.

The IM693 supports a wide range of input voltages, allowing for operation in various regions without the need for additional equipment. This flexibility makes it suitable for numerous applications, ranging from automotive repair to heavy machinery fabrication.

Safety is paramount in industrial settings, and the Lincoln Electric IM693 does not compromise on this front. It is equipped with several safety features such as thermal overload protection, which prevents machine damage from overheating, and a sturdy casing that protects vital components from dust and debris.

In summary, Lincoln Electric IM693 is a robust, versatile, and technologically advanced welding machine that meets the demands of modern welding applications. Its combination of inverter technology, user-friendly features, and safety measures makes it an excellent choice for professionals looking to achieve high-quality results with maximum efficiency.
