If the circuit board is faulty, it must be replaced. CONTROL CIRCUIT Pressing trigger switch SB1 on the welding torch energises relay RE1 from control power transformer TR1.
  • Page 10 RFI SUPPRESSION AND BASE LOAD RESISTORS Capacitors C4 − C6 protect against RFI. Resistors R12 and R15 provide a minimum base load for the rectifier bridge: in addition, they act as discharge resistors for the capacitors. MOTOR DRIVE CIRCUIT The wire feed motor is powered by the rectified secondary voltage from main transformer TM1.

  • Page 15: Installation

    INSTALLATION To be able to operate the LKA 150 at maximum power (position 7), it must be supplied via a 16 A slow−blow fuse. However, a 10 A slow−blow fuse is sufficient for welding at currents up to about 100 A.
  • Page 16: Operation

    OPERATION Connect the return current conductor clamp (E) to the workpiece. When welding with solid wire, open the gas valve (A) on the gas bottle and adjust the gas flow by reducer valve (B). The gas flow must be 8 − 12 litres per minute. Turn on the power unit and set a suitable voltage with knob (H).
