CONNECTION OF THE K488 SG CONTROL MODULE AND K487 MAGNUM SPOOL GUN TO THE SA-250 (SEE FIGURE C.5.)

1.Shut the welder off.

2.Connect the electrode cable from the SG Control Module to the “+” terminal of the welder. Connect the work cable to the “CV–” terminal of the welder.

NOTE: Welding cable must be sized for current and duty cycle of application.

NOTE: Figure C.5 shows the electrode connected for positive polarity. To change polarity, shut the welder off and reverse the electrode and work cables at the SA-250 output terminals.

3.Connect the K867 Universal adapter to the K492 input cable as shown in Figure C.5. Connect the other end of the adapter to the 14 pin amphenol on the SA-250.

4.Connect the K492 Input Cable to the SG Control Module.

5.Set the slide switch on the SG Control Module to the “Lincoln” position.

6.Place the IDLER switch on the SA-250 in the “HIGH” position.

CAUTION

Any increase of the high idle engine RPM by changing the governor setting or overriding the throttle linkage will cause an increase in the AC auxiliary voltage. If this voltage goes over 140 volts, wire feeder control circuits may be damaged. The engine governor set- ting is preset at the factory — do not adjust above RPM specifications listed in this manual.

7. Adjust wire feed speed at the SG Control Module.

NOTE: For remote control, a K775 remote control is required.

CAUTION

When the welder is in local control, the electrode is always “HOT.”
