CONNECTION OF LN-7, LN-8 OR LN-742

TO THE VANTAGE 500 CUMMINS

• Shut the welder off.

• Connect the LN-7, LN-8 OR LN-742 per instructions

on the appropriate connection diagram in the DIA-

GRAMS section.

• Set the “WIRE FEEDER VOLTMETER” switch to

either “+” or “-” as required by the electrode being

used.

• Set the “SELECTOR” switch to the “CV-WIRE” posi-

tion.

• Adjust the “ARC CONTROL” knob to desired

Crispness. SOFT for MIG and CRISP for

Innershield.

• Set the “WELDING TERMINALS” switch to the

“REMOTELY CONTROLLED” position.

• Set the “IDLE” switch to the “HIGH” position.

CONNECTION OF LN-15 TO THE VAN-

TAGE 500 CUMMINS

These connections instructions apply to both the LN-

15 Across-The-Arc and Control Cable models. The

LN-15 has an internal contactor and the electrode is

not energized until the gun trigger is closed. When the

gun trigger is closed the wire will begin to feed and the

welding process is started.

• Shut the welder off.

• For electrode Positive, connect the electrode cable

to the "+" terminal of the welder and work cable to

the "-" terminal of the welder. For electrode

Negative, connect the electrode cable "-" terminal of

the welder and work cable to the "+" terminal of the

welder.

• Across The-Arc Model:

Attach the single lead from the front of the LN-15

to work using the spring clip at the end of the

lead. This is a control lead to supply current to the

wire feeder motor; it does not carry welding cur-

rent.

• Control Cable Model:

Connect Control Cable between Engine Welder

and Feeder.

Set the MODE switch to the "CV-WIRE " position.

• Across The-Arc Model:

Set the "WELD TERMINALS" switch to "WELD

TERMINALS ON"

Set the "WIRE FEEDER VOLTMETER" switch to

either "+" or "-" as required by the electrode polar-

ity being used.

Set the "ARC CONTROL" knob to "0" initially and

adjust to suit.

Set the "IDLE" switch to the "AUTO IDLE" posi-

tion.

• Control Cable Model:

Set the "WELD TERMINALS" switch to

"REMOTELY CONTROLLED"

Set the "WIRE FEEDER VOLTMETER" switch to

either "+" or "-" as required by the electrode polar-

ity being used.

Set the "ARC CONTROL" knob to "0" initially and

adjust to suit.

Set the "IDLE" switch to the "AUTO IDLE" posi-

tion.
