MAKING A WELD

The serviceability of a product or structure utilizing
the LN-25 wire feeder is and must be the sole
34
responsibility of the builder/user. Many variables
51
beyond the control of The Lincoln Electric Company
62
affect the results obtained in using the LN-25 wire
72
feeder. These variables include, but are not limited to,
82
93
welding procedure, plate chemistry and temperature,
weldment design, fabrication methods and service
requirements. The available range of the LN-25 wire
feeder may not be suitable for all applications, and
the builder/user is and must be solely responsible for
welding settings.
SETUP
a. Connect work cable to metal to be welded. Work
cable must make good electrical contact to the
work. The work must also be grounded as stated
in "Arc Welding Safety Precautions."
b. Check that the LN-25 is properly connected to
the power source for the polarity and process to
be used, and appropriate power source settings
are made for the procedure to be used. (Refer to
power source operating and connection
instructions.)
NOTE: If the K431-1 Remote Output Control Kit or
K624-1 42V Remote Control Module is installed but
the LN-25 is to be used without the K432 Remote
Control Cable Assembly, then the Remote Board
harness plug must be removed from the 16-pin
receptacle on the Control Board and the jumper plug
(T13498-21) reinstalled.
NOTE: If the K460-1 Pulse Power Adapter Kit is
installed but the LN-25 is to be used without the K461
Pulse Power Control Cable Assembly, then the
instructions for returning the unit to across the arc
operation included with the Installation Instructions
(L9636) must be followed.
c. Place the LN-25 conveniently near the work area
in a location to minimize exposure to weld spatter
and to avoid sharp bends in the gun cable.
d. Connect the LN-25 Clip Lead to work and set Po-
larity Switch to same polarity as electrode.

e. Set WIRE FEED MODE switch to CV or CC, as
700
appropriate for the power source, then set the
proper DIAL RANGE and WIRE SPEED dial set-
ting for the proper wire feed speed per the
welding procedure:
