MULTIPROCESS WIRE FEEDER WELDER
GUN AND CABLE INSTALLATION
The Magnum 100L gun and cable provided with the welding
machine is factory installed with a liner for .025-.035"
(0.6-0.9mm) wire and an .035" (0.9mm) contact tip. The user
should ensure that the contact tip, liner, and drive rolls match the
size of the wire being used. For .030 wire, use the .035 drive roll
con guration.
WARNING
Turn the welder power switch "off" before installing gun and
cable.
1. Lay the cable straight.
2. Unscrew the hand screw which is threading into the gun
adapter.
3. Insert the male end of the gun into the female end of the gun
adapter through the opening in the front panel. Ensure the
connector is fully inserted. Then tighten the hand screw.
4. Connect the gun trigger connector from the gun and cable to
the mating receptacle located on the machine case front.
Make sure that the keyways are aligned, insert and tighten
the retaining ring.
SHIELDING GAS (FOR MIG ARC WELDING
PROCESSES)
Customer must provide cylinder of appropriate type shielding gas
for the process being used.
A gas ow regulator, for Argon Blend gas, and an inlet gas hose
are factory provided with the welding machine. When using 100%
CO
an additional adapter will be required to connect the regulator
2
to the gas bottle. Aluminum welding with a spool gun requires
100% Argon shielding gas.
WARNING
CYLINDER may explode if damaged.
Keep cylinder upright and chained to
support
•
Keep cylinder away from areas where it
may be damaged.
•
Never lift welder with cylinder attached.
•
Never allow welding electrode to touch cylinder.
•
Keep cylinder away from welding or other live electrical
circuits.
Install Shielding gas supply as follows:
1. Set the gas cylinder on a at surface and secure the cylinder
to a sturdy structure to prevent the cylinder from falling over.
2. Remove the cylinder cap. Inspect the cylinder valves and
regulator for damaged threads, dirt , dust, oil, or grease.
Remove dust and dirt with a clean cloth.
DO NOT ATTACH THE REGULATOR IF OIL, GREASE, OR DAMAGE IS
PRESENT! Inform your gas supplier of this condition. Oil or
grease in the presence of high pressure oxygen is explosive.
WARNING
BE SURE TO KEEP YOUR FACE AWAY
FROM THE VALVE OUTLET WHEN
"CRACKING" THE VALVE.
Never stand directly in front of or behind the ow regulator
when opening the cylinder valve. Always stand to one side.
The user should distance his or her body from the valve outlet
when "cracking" the valve.
3. Stand to one side away from the outlet and open the cylinder
valve for an instant. This will eradicate any dust or dirt which
may have accumulated in the valve outlet.
4. Attach the ow regulator to the cylinder valve and tighten the
union nut(s) securely with a wrench.
NOTE: If connecting to 100% CO
adapter must be installed between the regulator and cylinder
valve. If adapter is equipped with a plastic washer, be sure it
is seated for connection to the CO
5. Attach one end of the inlet gas hose to the outlet tting of the
ow regulator, the other end to the welding machine's rear
tting, and tighten the union nuts with a wrench.
