Lincoln Electric LF-72 WIRE FEEDER IM847-D - Manual (Page 31)

B-5 OPERATION B-5
Trigger Interlock
Trigger Interlock operation provides for operator com-
fort when making long welds. When the gun trigger is
first pulled, the welding power source energizes the
output and the wire feeder feeds wire for welding.
The gun trigger is then released while the weld is
made. To stop welding, the gun trigger is pulled
again, and when it is released the welding power
source output turns off and the wire feeder stops
feeding wire.
• If the arc goes out while welding with
trigger interlock operation, the elec-
trode output from the welding power
source remains energized and the
wire feeder will continue to feed wire
until the gun trigger is again pulled
and then released.

20.3 m/min).
