GENERAL DESCRIPTION

General Physical Description

The LN25 PRO EXTREME is specially engineered to be the most rugged portable wire feeder available.

The plastic case is molded from a high impact, flame retardant plastic for durability and low weight. The patent pending design keeps the internal components protected and dry.

The heart of the LN25 PRO EXTREME is the 2 roll MAXTRAC™ drive. The patented features on the wire drive offer tool-less changing of the drive rolls and wire guides for quick spool changes. A tachometer controlled motor powers the patent pending drive rolls for smooth, steady feeding without slippage.

With only one p.c. board, the LN25 PRO EXTREME is designed to be simple, reliable and easy to service. The p.c. board is mounted with Lincolnʼs leading envi- ronmental design protection by mounting the board in a plastic tray and potting it with epoxy.

General Functional Description

The LN25 PRO EXTREME as designed is a simple, robust feeder. Standard features include a calibrated wire feed speed dial, CV-CC switch, Gas Purge and Cold Feed.
