The K598 MAGNUM® guns are not factory equipped
with a feeder end connector. With the K613-1 MAG-
NUM® Connector Kit, they can be used with any
Lincoln LN-7 or LN-25 semiautomatic wire feeder. The
K613-1 can also be used with the LN-8 or LN-9 when
feeding .052 and smaller electrodes. For additional
Connector Kits see the "P-202 ACCESSORIES" sec-
tion of this manual. An optional K481 MAGNUM®
Fast-Connect Gas Tube Kit is available to provide
tool-less gas tube connection to Lincoln wire feeders.
Non-GMA model wire feeders require an optional gas
solenoid valve.
An interlocking trigger is available as a parts order.
With the trigger pulled in all the way, the trigger can
be slid forward into the interlock position. To release
interlock, squeeze trigger and slide back. The trigger
is made of a spatter resistant material. See the "P-202
ACCESSORIES" section of this manual.
INSTALLATION
For best results when welding mild and alloy steels, it
is recommended that L-50 or L-56 Lincoln solid wire
electrodes be used for the GMAW process and
Lincoln Outershield® cored electrodes for the gas-
shielded FCAW process.
Liners are available for feeding the harder (5356)
3/64" or 1/16" aluminum electrode. The liners have a
flat spring steel jacket with a frictionless core.
Although these liners are provided in 15 ft. lengths, 10
ft. cable lengths are recommended to reduce feeding
problems. See the "P-202 ACCESSORIES" section of
this manual.
