1.5 OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES

A. Water Kit (P/N 994466). Permits the convenient
connection of water-cooled torches and continuous
water supply to the wire feeder.
A kit is required for each torch and consists of a
coupling, two adaptors and a fitting. A dependable
cooling water supply, delivery and return water hoses
(P/N 40V76, 2 required) will also be required. Note that
Fig. 2-1 illustrates the use of power cable adaptor P/
N 634693, in addition to the kit. If adaptor (634693) is
not used, adaptor (45V11 supplied with kit) can be
connected to the output terminal of the power source.
Install the kit in accordance with Fig. 6-7 and Sec. 2.2-
F. Connect the water-cooled torch as shown in Fig. 2-
1.
B. Spool Enclosure Kit (P/N 600240). Provides protec-
tion for spool of wire against dust and dirt. For
installation instructions refer to Form 12-824.
C. Standard Wire Reel Assembly (P/N 995570). Reel
slips over spindle to allow use of coiled wire, see Fig.
6-6.
D. Heavy Duty Wire Reel Assembly (P/N 19V89).
Spoke-type wire reel includes a four spoke aluminum
alloy casting mounted on a lightweight support shaft of
steel tubing. The reel will handle all wire coils from 2 to
4-5/8-in. wide. The finger design permits quick and
easy accommodation of different coil widths by simply
rotating from one finger position to the other.
E. Wire Straightener (P/N 34V74). Reduces wire cast
to improve feedability and increase service life of torch
liners and contact tips. Mounts to the accessory
support inlet guide.
Either of two additional accessories are required to
complete the installation on the wire inlet side of the
straightener:
a. Wire Inlet Guide, P/N 11N53, or -
b. Wire Wiper Holder, P/N 598763.
F. Wire Spool Spacer (P/N 948378). Enables the use of
a 8-in. diameter spool of welding wire with spindle
assembly on the Digimig wire feeder.

G. WC-9 Coolant Circulator (P/N 33540) is used for
water cooled torch operation and is designed to be
"free standing" in a convenient location near the torch.
A four-gallon capacity tank provides 1.0 gal/min @ 50
psi, using 115 volts, 50/60 Hertz, 1 phase input. Since
the cooler is designed to run continuously during a
welding operation, never connect it to a power source
or wire feeder that uses a solenoid controlled water
supply that opens and closes with each operation of the
welding contactor - the cooling efficiency of the unit will
be hampered and the starting winding in the pump
motor may burn out.
H. WC-8C Coolant Circulator (P/N 33739) is used for
water cooled torch operation and is designed to fit in
a cylinder rack of a power supply truck. A 1.5 gallon
capacity tank provides 1.0 gal/min @ 50 psi, using 115
volts, 50/60 Hertz, 1 phase input. Since the cooler is
designed to run continuously during a welding opera-
tion, never connect it to a power source or wire feeder
that uses a solenoid controlled water supply that opens
or closes with each operation of the welding contactor
- the cooling efficiency of the unit will be hampered and
the starting winding in the pump motor may burn out
I. Wire Feeder Turntable P/N 678940, allows rotation of
wire feeder as operator changes work positions. This
reduces strain and bending of torch cables (see F-12-
984).
J. Four Roll Drive Accessory Support Assembly
(P/N 600216). This assembly (shown in booklet F-12-
821) utilizes 4 feed rolls to provide positive nonslip wire
feed. It is designed for feeding .030 thru 1/8-in.
diameter wire. Feed rates for the 4-roll drive are virtually
the same as with the 2-roll drive. For feed roll/outlet
guide accessories refer to F-12-821 or Table 1.
