RECOMMENDED PROCESSES
EQUIPMENT
The DH-10 Wire Feeder system is recommended for use
with solid wire gas-metal-arc or CV Submerged arc process-
es, as well as cored wire for Outershield, GMAW or
Innershield processes.
The wire type and size range for the wire drive used, and
gear ratio change selected, are given in the Specifications.
Recommended power sources are Lincoln Electric
Company constant voltage power sources with 42 VAC aux-
iliary power and a 14-pin connector receptacle. At the time
of printing these include: CV 250, CV300-I, CV-300,
CV400-I, CV-400, CV500-I, DC-400, CV-655, Invertec
V300-PRO, +V300-I, V350-PRO, DC-600, DC-650 PRO and
DC-655.
The DC-250, DC-600(Below Code 10500), DC-1000 and the
Pulse Power 500 (Non-Pulsed CV mode only) may also be
used with the DH-10 if the optional K1520-1 115V / 42V
Transformer Kit is used.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ELECTRIC SHOCK can
kill.
• Turn the input power off at the power source
disconnect switch before attempting to connect
the input power to the DH-10 Control.
• Only qualified personnel should perform this installation.

INSTALLATION OF THE DH-10 BOOM
MOUNT WIRE FEEDER COMPONENTS

Mounting the 10-Series Wire Drive Unit

(K1497-1, -2, -3,-4, K1563-1,-2,-3,-4)
Mount the 10-series wire drive unit to the boom or structure
using the four 5/16-18 threaded mounting holes located on
the bottom of the DH drive connection box. See Figure A.1
for the size and location of the mounting holes. The feed
plate assembly is electrically "hot" when the gun trigger is
pressed. Therefore, make certain the feed plate does not
come in contact with the structure on which the unit is
mounted.
The wire drive unit should be mounted so that the drive rolls
are in a vertical plane so dirt will not collect in the drive roll
area. Pivot the feed plate so it will point down at an angle
so the wire feed gun cable will not be bent sharply as it
comes from the unit. See "Procedure for setting angle of
Feed Plate" in the OPERATION section of this manual.

Mounting Synergic 7F Wire Drive Unit

(K679-1 or -2)
Mount the wire feed unit by means of the insulated
mounting bracket attached to the bottom of the gearbox.
Reference L9777 (included with Drive unit) to find the
size and location of the mounting holes. The gearbox
assembly is electrically "hot" when the gun trigger is
pressed. Therefore, make certain the gearbox does not
come in contact with the structure on which the unit is
mounted.
The wire feed unit should be mounted so that the drive
rolls are in a vertical plane so dirt will not collect in the
drive roll area. Position the mechanism so it will point
down at about a 45° angle so the wire feed gun cable will
not be bent sharply as it comes from the unit.
Note: The K1496-1 control box must be used with the
K679 drives.
