ING
Connect a wire feeder to the Commander 300 and set
welder controls according to the instructions listed earlier
in this section.
The Commander 300 in the "WIRE WELDING" position,
permits it to be used with a broad range of flux cored wire
(Innershield and Outershield) electrodes and solid wires
for MIG welding (gas metal arc welding). Welding can be
finely tuned using the "ARC CONTROL".
Some recommended Innershield electrodes are: NR-311,
NS-3M, NR-207, NR-203 Ni 1%, NR-204-H.
Recommended Outershield electrodes are: 0S-70, 0S-
71M.
Some recommended solid wires for MIG welding are: .035
(0.9 mm), .045 (1.1 mm) and .052 (1.3 mm), L-50 and L-
56, .035 (0.9 mm) and .045 (1.1 mm) Blue Max MIG 308
LS.
For any electrodes, including the above recommendations,
the procedures should be kept within the rating of the
machine. For additional electrode information, see Lincoln
publications N-675, GS-100 and GS-210.
