GUN AND CABLE ASSEMBLIES WITH STANDARD CONNECTION

The Power Feed 10 Dual Wire Feeder is equipped with a factory installed K1500-2 gun connection Kit. This kit is for guns having a Tweco™ #2-#4 connector. The Power Feed 10 Dual Wire Feederl has been designed to make connecting a variety of guns easy and inex- pensive with the K1500 series of gun connection kits. Gun trigger and dual procedure lead connections con- nect to the single 5 pin receptacle on the front of the feed head box. See “Gun Adapters” in ACCESSORIES section.

GUN AND CABLE ASSEMBLIES WITH FAST-MATE™CONNECTION

(including the Magnum 450 Water Cooled gun)

A K489-7 adapter will install directly into the wire drive feedplate, to provide for use of guns with Fast-Mate™ or European style gun connections. This K489-7 will handle both standard Fast-Mate™and Dual Schedule Fast-Mate™ guns.

Another way to connect a gun with a Fast-Mate™ or European style gun connector to the Power Feed 10 Dual Wire Feederl, is to use the K489-2 Fast-Mate™ adapter kit. Installation of this adapter also requires a K1500-1 gun connector. See “Gun Adapters” in ACCESSORIES section.

The easiest and least expensive way to use Magnum 200/300/400 guns with the Power Feed 10 Dual Wire Feeder is to order them with the K466-10 connector kit, or to buy a completely assembled Magnum gun having the K466-10 connector (such as the K497-21 dedicat- ed Magnum 400).
