SPOOL GUN TO THE RANGER 9
(SEE FIGURE C.8.)
1. Shut the welder off.
2. Connect the electrode cable from the SG Control
Module to the "ELECTRODE" terminal of the
welder. Connect the work cable to the "TO WORK"
terminal of the welder.
NOTE: Welding cable must be sized for current and
duty cycle of application.
3. Connect the K691-10 Input Cable to the SG
Control Module and the 14 pin amphenol of the
RANGER 9 as indicated in Figure C.8.
4. Set the slide switch on the SG Control Module to
the "Lincoln" position.
CAUTION
Be sure this switch is set to the "Lincoln" (contact clo-

tion.
7. Place the "IDLER" switch in the "HIGH" position.
CAUTION
Any increase of the high idle engine RPM by changing
the governor setting or overriding the throttle linkage
will cause an increase in the AC auxiliary voltage. If
this voltage goes over 140 volts, wire feeder control
circuits may be damaged. The engine governor set-
ting is preset at the factory — do not adjust above
RPM specifications listed in this manual.
8. Place the WELDING TERMINALS switch in the
"REMOTELY CONTROLLED" position.
9. Adjust wire feed speed at the SG Control Module
and set the welding voltage with the output "CON-
TROL" to a CV (constant voltage) position at the
welder.
NOTE: If optional remote control is used, place the
output control switch in the "CONTROL
REMOTE" position.
