Be certain that the proper plastic insert is used.
Fine wire chisel point tube must have largest
radius next to drive roll. Tighten in place.
11. Re-latch both quick release levers.
12. To start new electrode, straighten the first 6 in.
(150 mm) and cut off the first 1 in. (25 mm).

GUN AND CABLE ASSEMBLIES
WITH STANDARD CONNECTION
The DH Wire Drive Heads each require a K1500 Gun
Adapter installed See
Gun Adapters
in
Accessories
section.
GMAW Guns
An expanding line of Magnum gun and cable assem-
blies are available to allow welding with solid and
cored electrodes using the GMAW process. See the
appropriate Magnum literature for descriptions of the
200 to 550 ampere air cooled gun and cables that are
available. Gun cable lengths range from 10 ft (3.0 m)
to 25 ft (7.6 m) and feed electrode sizes 0.025 in.
(0.6 mm) to 3/32 in. (2.4 mm). The entire line of
Magnum Fast-Mate gun and cable assemblies can
also be used by installing a K489-2 Fast-Mate adapter
kit. See
Gun and Cable Assemblies with Fast-Mate
Connection
in this section for details.
Innershield Guns
K126 and K115 gun and cable assemblies are avail-
able to allow welding with Innershield electrodes. Gun
cable lengths range from 10 ft (3.0 m) to 15 ft (4.5 m)
The 350 ampere K126 will feed electrode sizes
0.062 in. (1.6 mm) to 3/32 in. (2.4 mm). The 450
ampere K115 will feed 5/64 in. (2.0 mm) to 3/32 in.
(2.4 mm) electrode.
Three smoke extraction gun and cable assemblies are
available, 250 ampere K309, 350 ampere K206 and
the 500 ampere K289. All gun cable lengths are 15 ft
(4.5 m). These guns will feed electrode sizes 0.062 in.
(1.6 mm) to 3/32 in. (2.4 mm) and require the use of
the K184 vacuum unit for use with the DH-10.
