Install the barbed fitting and union nut to the
female inert gas fitting on the front panel of the
LN-25 case. Connect the
gun cable to the barbed fitting.
When the gun is to be removed, this fitting can be
easily detached by loosening the union nut.

WELD CABLE CONNECTION

The size of the electrode cable and work cable must
be sufficient for the maximum weld current and total
cable length to be used. Refer to table A.1.

ELECTRODE CABLE CONNECTION

On units without an internal contactor route the
electrode cable through the oval hole in the LN-25
rear panel, then along the case floor behind the reel
support and around the door side of the wire drive.
Connect the electrode cable to the LN-25 using the
1
" bolt on the front of the wire drive.
2
On units with an internal contactor connect the
electrode cable to the LN-25 electrode input cable
with the nut and bolt provided. Tape the bolted
connection.

WORK CABLE CONNECTION

Connect a work lead of sufficient size between
the proper output stud on the power source and
the work. Be sure the connection to the work
makes tight metal-to-metal electrical contact.
Poor work lead connections can result in poor
welding performance.
