TEST PROCEDURE
1. Remove input power to the LN-9 GMA wire
feeder.
2. Using the phillips head screwdriver, remove
the screws from the left side cover assembly.
3. Lift the left side cover assembly.
4. Locate the voltage PC board. Jumper together
the "BYPASS" pins on the LN-9 GMA voltage
PC board. See Figure F.12. (On older voltage
boards these pins may be labeled "B".) This
should disable the shut down circuit.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

source per connection diagram.
Installation section of this manual.
6. Start welding and observe the ACTUAL volt-
age reading on the LN-9 GMA digital meter.
The actual voltage must match the SET volt-
age within ± 0.5V. If it does NOT, the LN-9
GMA is designed to shut down.
7. If the LN-9 GMA continues to shut down with
the "BYPASS" pins jumpered together, the
voltage PC board may be faulty.
