If using welding currents over 450 amperes, con-
nect a length of 1/0 cable between the brass block
on the hand crank and the input strap located in the
wire drive unit. Tape this cable to the extension
assembly. Proper cable lengths are as follows:

22-1/2 ft. extension

26’ M5906-106

45 ft. extension

46’ M5906-104

A handle is provided and is mounted to the wire
drive unit in the following manner:

Remove the two self-tapping screws that hold the
hinge pin in captivity. Push the hinge pin out, leav-
ing the covers intact. Place the handle into the
slots provided. Push the hinge pin back into the
assembly, making sure that the pin goes through
the holes in the handle. Put the two self-tapping
screws back into their respective positions and
tighten.

If the extension is being used with a K306 Wire
Reel Flux Tank Assembly, the hose attached to the
bottom of the flux tank may have to be shortened.

This hose is 64 feet long and is the correct length
for use with the 45 foot extension. If a 22-1/2 foot
extension is used, cut off 22-1/2 feet of the flux
hose to give the correct length of 41-1/2 feet. (The
conductor cable of the extension assembly is 22-
1/2 feet long, tip to tip, and can be used to measure
the length cut off.) If you tape the flux hose to the
extension cables or the gun cable, be careful not to
deform or collapse the flux hose.

CONNECTING THE POWER INPUT
CABLE ASSEMBLY TO THE LN-9F
CONTROL BOX

1. See Figure A.4. Connect the MS-type plug of the

K196, K595, or K596 control cable to the mating
MS-type connector on the bottom of the LN-9F con-
trol box.

2. Bolt the electrode lead from the power source to the

electrode lead to the wire feed unit using the nut
and bolt supplied. Insulate the connection with elec-
trical tape.
