If a failed test indicates that any mechanical part which could affect the machine's elec- trical characteristics must be replaced, or if any electrical components are repaired or replaced, the machine must be retested and meet the following standards.

Apply the correct input power (42 VAC) to the LN-10 unit. The following checks should be performed.

1.Press the Purge key. The gas solenoid should activate, then deactivate when the key is released.

2.Press the Cold Feed Forward key. Check that the direction of rotation of the drive roll is correct to feed wire out of the front of the machine. Check that the drive roll shaft stops abruptly when the key is released.

3.Press the Cold Feed Reverse key. Check that the direction of rotation of the drive roll is correct to retract the electrode wire back into the machine. Check that the drive roll shaft stops abruptly when the key is released.

Check the Feeder selection and Procedure keys for proper operation.

1.Press the Trigger key. The LEDs should toggle through the various trig- ger selections as the key is pressed and released.

2.Press the Timer key. The LEDs should toggle through the various modes as the key is pressed and released.

3.Press the Control key. The “Run-In Volts/WFS” LED should light up. Press the Control key again. The LED should turn off.

The Volts and WFS controls must function and change the appropriate display.
