    Failure to follow the instructions in this manual could cause serious personal injury, loss of life, or damage to this equipment. Read and understand the following explanations of the warning symbols. Lincoln Electric is not responsible for damages caused by improper installation, improper care or abnormal operation.
  • Page 8: Introduction

    The EMC or RF classification of this equipment is Class A. Do not submerge the Power Feed 84. The Power Feed 84 is rated IP2x and is suitable for indoor use. When suspending a wire feeder, insulate the hanging 15 DEGREES MAXIMUM device from the wire feeder enclosure.
  • Page 9 Figure #4 Single/Dual User Interface Conversion (See Figure #5) The Power Feed 84 uses the same user interface for both single and dual models. A DIP switch on the back side of the user interface board sets the board configuration.

  • Page 16 ** Tabled values are for operation at ambient temperatures of 104°F(40°C) and below. Applications above 104°F(40°C) may require cables larger than recommended, or cables rated higher than 167°F(75°C). Negative Electrode Polarity The Power Feed 84 ships from the factory configured for electrode positive polarity. See P.81 in the Operations Section (Set-Up menu) to select negative polarity welding.
  • Page 17 Welding with Multiple Arcs Special care must be taken when more than one arc is welding simultaneously on a single part. Arc blow and arc interference may occur or be magnified. Each power source requires a work lead from the work stud to the welding fixture.

  • Page 21 Voltage/Trim Display and Knob Process Display/Function Description Pulse welding controls the arc length with 'Trim' instead of voltage. When trim (arc length) is adjusted, the Power Wave automatically recalculates the voltage, current and time of each part ofthe pulse waveform for the best result.
  • Page 22 Wave Control Process Wave Effect/Range Description Control Name Arc Force adjusts the short circuit current for a soft arc, or for a forceful, driving arc. It helps to prevent sticking and shorting of organic coated SMAW Soft (-10.0) to electrodes, particularity globular transfer types such as stainless and low Arc Force (Stick) Crisp (10.0)
  • Page 23 Wave Control Process Wave Effect/Range Description Control Name Peak Current acts similar to an arc pinch control. Peak Current sets the arc length and promotes good fusion. Higher peak current levels will cause the arc to broaden momentarily while increasing arc length. If set too high, globular transfer may occur.
  • Page 24 2-Step Trigger 2-Step Trigger controls the welding sequence in direct response to the trigger. When the gun trigger is pulled, the welding system (power source and wire feeder) cycles through the arc starting sequence and into the main welding parameters. The welding system will continue to weld as long as the gun trigger is activated. Once the trigger is released, the welding system cycles through the arc ending steps.
  • Page 25 Example 2: 2-Step Trigger: Improved Arc Start and Arc End Tailoring the arc start and arc end is a common method for reducing spatter and improving weld quality. This can be accomplished with the Start and Burnback functions set to a desired values and Crater set to OFF. For this sequence, PREFLOW: Shielding gas begins to flow immediately when the gun trigger is pulled.
  • Page 26 Example 3: 2-Step Trigger: Customized Arc Start, Crater and Arc End. Aluminum is an example of where start, crater and burnback are commonly used to improve welding performance. For this sequence, PREFLOW: Shielding gas begins to flow immediately when the gun trigger is pulled. RUN-IN: After preflow time expires, the power source regulates to the start output and wire is advanced towards the work piece at the Run-In WFS.
  • Page 27 4-Step Trigger 4-step trigger allows the operator to release the trigger once an arc has been established. To end the weld, the trigger is pulled and then released again. Two types of 4-Step Trigger are available. Use the set-up menu to select the desired type of operation. With current interlock, if the arc goes out for more than 0.5 seconds while the trigger is released, the welding process stops and goes to the idle state.
  • Page 28 Example 2: 4-Step Trigger: Manual Control of Start and Crater times with Burnback ON. The 4-Step trigger sequence gives the most flexibility when the Start, Crater and Burnback functions are active. This is a popular choice when welding aluminum because extra heat may be needed during Start and less heat desired during crater.
  • Page 29 Spot Trigger The Spot Trigger may only be selected if the Spot Time has previously been set to a value other than 0.0 (OFF) and the Start and Crater are both OFF. Spot time causes the welding system to turn on for a fixed time, regardless if the trigger is held for a longer period of time.
  • Page 30 4-Step Trigger: Special Considerations The response to the trigger with 4-step trigger active is dependent upon when the trigger is pulled/released and the settings for START and CRATER. Example 1. Pull the trigger to start feed of wire. When arc is established the sequencer will remain in START until the trigger is released.
  • Page 31 End Options The End Options available depend upon the process and weld mode selected Process Start Options Effect / Range Description SMAW (Stick) Spot Timer Sets the length of time for welding when the trigger is pulled. If the trigger is released before the Spot Timer is complete, welding stops.
