WIRE SPINDLE PLACEMENT
The reel stand provides two mounting locations for the 2 inch diameter wire reel spindle to accommodate var- ious reel sizes. Each mounting location consists of a tube in the center of the reel stand, and locating slots on the outside of the reel stand. The bolt, used with a plain washer and lock washer, slides through the tube from the side of the reel stand. The bolt should be threaded into the wire spindle such that the tabs on the brake mechanism align with the locating slots, then tighten.
The upper location must be used for
For smaller coils (44lb, 30lb, 10lb, etc.), the spindle can be placed in either the upper or lower location. The goal is to make the wire path from the coil to the wire drive an entry into the incoming guide tube that is as straight as possible. This will optimize wire feeding per- formance.
Flow Sensor Kit installation is as follows:
1.Remove rear access door of the wire feeder case.
2.Locate the shutdown circuit leads inside feeder case cavity (refer to table AA.4).
Note: The leads will be connected together with insulated (pink) quick disconnects.
3.Disconnect pink
4.Locate and remove plastic plug on rear of wire feed- er case.
5.Insert Flow Sensor leads through hole.
6.Connect Flow Sensor leads with shutdown circuit leads.
7.Replace rear access door.

WATER CONNECTIONS (FOR WATER COOLED GUNS)
If a water cooled gun is to be installed for use with the Power Feed 10 Dual, a
are used even momentarily without water flowing. To protect the gun, we recommended that a water flow sense kit be installed. This will prevent wire feeding if no water flow is present.
WIRE FEED SHUT DOWN CIRCUIT (OPTIONAL)
This option is intended as a means of disabling weld- ing in the event that the water flow (for a water cooled gun) is not present. Water cooled guns can be quick- ly damaged if they are momentarily used without water flow. This matter can be avoided when a Lincoln Flow Sensor Kit
The Flow Sensor Kit has two control leads that become electrically common when the water is flowing. When integrated with the wire feeder shut down circuit, it forms a closed (common) circuit and enables welding. In the event that water is not flowing, the Flow Sensor circuit (shut down circuit) is electrically opened which disables any further operation.
EXAMPLES OF CONNECTING AN ARCLINK POWER WAVE SYSTEM
ArcLink Power Wave products may be configured in many different ways. The flexible system allows multi- ple wire feeders to be connected to the same power source. The diagrams represent some of the common methods for connecting ArcLink Products.
Important: Bench model wire feeders cannot be sepa- rated into a separate control box and wire drive for a boom system.
Common ArcLink Systems
The following Power Wave systems may all be assem- bled without any changes to the equipment DIP switch- es.
