Set the power source for the approximate voltage

 

 

required, per the SAM instruction manual. Make

 

final adjustments with the LN-8 ‘Volts’ control.

 

 

If using the variable inductance control (see SAM

 

instruction manual), set the SAM ‘Current

 

Control’ as desired in the 8 o’clock range.

 

 

2. Set the ‘Direction of Wire Feed’ switch so the

 

wire feeds out of the gun.

 

 

3. Adjust the electrical stickout and the actual

 

welding current and voltage as needed.
