MAKING A WELD

SETUP

a. Connect work cable to metal to be welded. Work

cable must make good electrical contact to the

work. The work must also be grounded as stated

in “Arc Welding Safety Precautions.”

b. Check that the LN-25™ is properly connected to

the power source for the polarity and process to

be used, and appropriate power source settings

are made for the procedure to be used. (Refer to

p owe r s o u r c e o p e ra t i n g a n d c o n n e c t i o n

instructions.)

NOTE: If the K431-1 Remote Output Control Kit or
K624-1 42V Remote Control Module is installed but

the LN-25™ is to be used without the Remote Control
Cable Assembly, then the Remote Board harness plug

must be removed from the 16-pin receptacle on the

Control Board and the jumper plug (T13498-21)

reinstalled.

c. Place the LN-25™ conveniently near the work

area in a location to minimize exposure to weld

spatter and to avoid sharp bends in the gun cable.

d. Connect the LN-25™ Clip Lead to work and set

Po larity Switch to same polarity as electrode.

e. Set WIRE FEED MODE switch to CV or VV (CC),

as appropriate for the power source, then set the

proper DIAL RANGE and WIRE SPEED dial set -

ting for the proper wire feed speed per the welding

procedure:

For CV: Set dial to the calibrated IN/MIN desired.

(Refer to Setting Constant Wire Feed Speed
Section
.)

For CC: Set dial to value determined from the CC

Wire Speed Graph for the DESIRED IN/ MIN

and ARC VOLTS to be used. (Refer to Setting
Arc Sensing Wire Feed Speed Section
.)

NOTE: If procedure permits a range of acceptable

arc voltage, use the middle of the range to

determine proper WIRE SPEED setting.

f. If using the optional Gas Flow Timer, set the de -

sired PREFLOW TIME and POSTFLOW TIME.

g. Be sure the proper contact tip for the wire size

being used is in the gun, and the gun is safe

from work contact. (Use the LN-25™ insulated

gun holder.)
