CONNECTOR KIT INSTALLATION TO GUN CABLE
Most models of Magnum 300 and Magnum 400 gun
cables, except K1802-1 and K2286-1, are shipped as
generic assemblies and must be assembled with a
K466 connector kit (See REPLACEMENT PARTS sec-
tion Chart E for proper kit). The Magnum 400 Gun
K2286-1 has a factory installed feeder end connector.
K466-1& -8 INSTALLATION (For Lincoln Feeders)
a. Remove brass cable connector and insulation tube
(see Figure 1) from the K466-1 kit. Slide the insula-
tion tube onto the connector from the threaded end
and screw it onto the feeder end of the gun cable.
Tighten the connection with the wrench provided.
b. Remove the molded gas plug fitting on the side of
the feeder end handle and replace it with the barbed
brass fitting provided in the kit. The included wrench
will fit both the gas plug and barbed fitting.
c. Attach the round connector of the gun control cable
provided to the trigger connector on the front of the
Lincoln feeder. (NOTE: Both the plug and socket
are keyed and must be properly oriented.)
d. Place one tubing clamp onto each end of the flexi-
ble tubing provided, approximately 2” (51 mm) in
from each end. Slide one end of the tubing onto the
barbed connector on the feeder end cable handle
(step b) and move the clamp down near the end of
the tube to ensure a good gas seal.
NOTE: An optional K481 Magnum Fast-Connect Gas
Tube Kit is available to provide tool-less gas tube con-
nection to Lincoln wire feeders. Install per the instruc-
tions sent with the kit.
