Installing interconnection cable

Install the interconnection cable first to the wire feeder and then to the power source.

Proceed as follows:

Connect the interconnection cable to the wire feeder:

1.

Lift the cable cabinet latch to reveal the connectors.

2.

Connect the welding current cable to the wire feeder. Push the cable as far as it goes and turn the connector clockwise to tighten the cable to its place.

Tighten the welding current cable as much as you can by hand. If the welding current cable connection is loose, it may overheat.

3.

Push the shielding gas hose towards the shielding gas hose connector base until it locks down.

4.

Attach the strain relief to the slot on the wire feeder.

5.

Lock the strain relief latch to secure the strain relief.

6.

Connect the control cable to the connector. Rotate the collar clockwise to lock it in place.

7.

Connect the measurement cable to the connector. Rotate the collar clockwise to lock it in place.

8.

If you have the optional cooler, pull the cover over the cooling water hoses' slot to remove it.

9.

Connect the cooling water hoses to the slot.

10.

Close and lock the cable cabinet door.

When connecting the cables to the wire feeder, route the cables neatly so that the cable cabinet door closes properly.

Connect the interconnection cable to the power source:

1.

Connect the welding current cable to the plus (+) side connector (1) on the power source. The interconnection cable crosses from the wire feeder to the power source connector diagonally.

If two wire feeders are connected to a power source, connect the interconnection cable upright: from the wire feeder on the left to the connector (1) on the left.

2.

Connect the earth return cable to the minus (-) side connector (2).

3.

Connect the measurement cable to the measurement cable connector (4).

4.

Connect the control cable to the control cable connector (3) on the same side as the measurement cable.

5.

If the water cooler is present, use the red connector (5) for the hose that goes to the cooler.

6.

If the water cooler is present, use the blue connector (6) for the hose that comes from the cooler.

7.

If you need shielding gas, connect the shielding gas hose to the gas cylinder.

The power source can be connected to two wire feeders at the same time.

Ensure that you have connected and tightened all the cables properly.
