ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

• Do not operate with covers

removed.

• Turn off power source before

installing or servicing.

• Do not touch electrically

hot parts.

• Turn the input power to the

welding power source off at the

fuse box before working in the

terminal strip.

• Only qualified personnel should

install, use or service this

equipment.

DC-250

a. Connect a jumper from 2 to 4 on the power source

terminal strip so the output will be energized when

the DC-250™ is turned on.

b. Connect electrode cable to the “Innershield/

GMAW” output terminal of polarity required by

electrode.

Connect

wor k

lead

to

other

“Innershield/GMAW” output terminal.

c. Place “Set to CV Electrode Cable Polarity” switch

at appropriate position.

d. Place power source toggle switch in “Output

Control at DC-250™” position, unless a Remote

Control is connected to 75, 76 and 77 on the DC-

250™ terminal strip.

e. Place mode switch in “Innershield GMAW (CV)”

position. Set CV arc control to “2” (or “NORMAL”

on some machines). Initially set the output control

on “7”.

NOTE: DC-400™ machines above Code 9200 have

an output toggle switch to perform this function.

Connect work lead to other output terminal.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Unless an optional output control or contactor is used

with the LN-25™, the electrode circuit (including

welding wire, wire dr ive and welding gun) is

electrically hot when the welding power source is on.

The gun trigger controls wire feed only.

Disconnect or shut off welding power source before

making connections or installations to the LN-25™.

Welding gun should be stored in the insulated

gun holder, located near the rear on the top of the

LN-25™ case, to avoid accidental arcing. The LN-

25™ should be positioned upright on a horizontal

surface.

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

• Do not touch metal portions

of the LN-25™ lead clip when

welding power source is on.

POWER SOURCE CONNECTION

The LN-25™ can be used with any DC welding power

source. A constant voltage power source is

recommended; however, the LN-25™ can also be

used with a constant current power source as long as

the open circuit voltage is less than 110V DC.

Do not use LN-25™ models below Code 9200 with

any TIG or Square Wave welding power sources. Do

not use LN-25™ models equipped with inter nal

contactors with non- Lincoln TIG or Square Wave

welding power sources. Damage to the LN-25™

circuit can occur as a result of the high output

inductance typically associated with these power

sources. TIG high frequency power should never be

applied to the LN-25™.

If not using an LN-25™ Remote Output Control option

(See Remote Output Control Options and Cable

Assemblies Section), the power source output must

be electrically “hot” at all times when the power source

is turned on.

See the power source instruction manual for proper

power source connections and setting required.
