OPERATION

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT/CONNECTIONS

The Multi-weld 350 (K1735-1) is the recommended means by which to control the MULTI-SOURCE power supply. Connections between the MULTI-SOURCE and the Multi-weld may be easily made using Twist-Mate male and female connectors and the K1736-1 Distribution box.

The Multi-weld 350 has multi-process capability and may be used in manual and semi-automatic processes. When a wire feeder is required an LN-25 (K449) is recommended. The number of Multi-Weld 350s, the procedures used and the combined duty cycle of the arcs are only limited by the 40,000 watt (36,000 watts on 50 Hz) rating of the Multi-Source supply. The machine is IP-23S rated and is designed for outdoor applications.

CONTROLS AND SETTINGS

All operator controls and adjustments are located on the Case Front Assembly of the MULTI-SOURCE. See Figure B.1. below for the location of each control.
