OPERATION

B-2

5. Gun Trigger - Activates welding output, wire feed,

and gas solenoid operation. Releasing the trigger
deactivates welding and simultaneously activates
the

burnback

function so that the welding wire

does not stick in the weld puddle.

No external shielding gas is required when used
with Lincoln Innershield .035

(0.9 mm) NR

®

-211-

MP electrode.

Accommodates both 4

(100 mm) diameter and 8

(200 mm) diameter spools of wire.

WELDING CAPABILITY

The SP-100T is rated at 88 amps, 18 volts, at 20%
duty cycle on a ten minute basis. CSA rated output at
62 amps at 20 volts at 20% duty cycle. It is capable of
higher output currents at lower duty cycles.

LIMITATIONS

Arc Gouging cannot be performed with the SP-100T.
The SP-100T is not recommended for pipe thawing or
TIG welding.

CONTROLS AND SETTINGS

Refer to Figure B.1a.

1. Control Power ON/OFF Switch

When the power is on the

fan motor will run and air will be
exhausted out the louvers in the
front of the machine. The weld-
ing output and wire feeder
remain off until the gun trigger
is pressed.

2. Wire Speed Control

Controls the wire feed speed
from 50

300 in /min (1.3

7.6 m/min). The control can
be preset on the dial to the
setting specified on the SP-
100T Application Chart
located on the inside of the
wire feed section door.

3. Voltage Control

A 4-posi-

tion tap selector switch gives
full range adjustment of
power source output voltage.
Do not switch while welding.

Refer to Figure B-1b.

4. Circuit Breaker

Protects machine from damage if

maximum output is exceeded. Button will extend
out when tripped (Manual reset).
