WARNING
Mar ʻ95
ELECTRIC AND
MAGNETIC FIELDS
may be dangerous
2.a. Electric current flowing through any conductor causes
localized Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF). Welding
current creates EMF fields around welding cables and
welding machines
2.b. EMF fields may interfere with some pacemakers, and
welders having a pacemaker should consult their physician
before welding.
2.c. Exposure to EMF fields in welding may have other health
effects which are now not known.
2.d. All welders should use the following procedures in order to
minimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit:
2.d.1.
Route the electrode and work cables together - Secure
them with tape when possible.
2.d.2. Never coil the electrode lead around your body.
2.d.3. Do not place your body between the electrode and
work cables. If the electrode cable is on your right
side, the work cable should also be on your right side.
2.d.4. Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close as
possible to the area being welded.
2.d.5. Do not work next to welding power source.
1.h. To avoid scalding, do not remove the
radiator pressure cap when the engine is
hot.

SAFETY
ii
ARC RAYS can burn.
4.a. Use a shield with the proper filter and cover
plates to protect your eyes from sparks and
the rays of the arc when welding or observing
open arc welding. Headshield and filter lens
should conform to ANSI Z87. I standards.
4.b. Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistant
material to protect your skin and that of your helpers from
the arc rays.
4.c. Protect other nearby personnel with suitable, non-flammable
screening and/or warn them not to watch the arc nor expose
themselves to the arc rays or to hot spatter or metal.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can
kill.
3.a. The electrode and work (or ground) circuits
are electrically “hot” when the welder is on.
Do not touch these “hot” parts with your bare
skin or wet clothing. Wear dry, hole-free
gloves to insulate hands.
3.b. Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulation.
Make certain the insulation is large enough to cover your full
area of physical contact with work and ground.
In addition to the normal safety precautions, if welding
must be performed under electrically hazardous
conditions (in damp locations or while wearing wet
clothing; on metal structures such as floors, gratings or
scaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting,
kneeling or lying, if there is a high risk of unavoidable or
accidental contact with the workpiece or ground) use
the following equipment:
• Semiautomatic DC Constant Voltage (Wire) Welder.
• DC Manual (Stick) Welder.
• AC Welder with Reduced Voltage Control.
3.c. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the electrode,
electrode reel, welding head, nozzle or semiautomatic
welding gun are also electrically “hot”.
3.d. Always be sure the work cable makes a good electrical
connection with the metal being welded. The connection
should be as close as possible to the area being welded.
3.e. Ground the work or metal to be welded to a good electrical
(earth) ground.
3.f.
Maintain the electrode holder, work clamp, welding cable and
welding machine in good, safe operating condition. Replace
damaged insulation.
3.g. Never dip the electrode in water for cooling.
3.h. Never simultaneously touch electrically “hot” parts of
electrode holders connected to two welders because voltage
between the two can be the total of the open circuit voltage
of both welders.
3.i. When working above floor level, use a safety belt to protect
yourself from a fall should you get a shock.
3.j. Also see Items 6.c. and 8.
FUMES AND GASES
can be dangerous.
5.a. Welding may produce fumes and gases
hazardous to health. Avoid breathing these
fumes and gases. When welding, keep
your head out of the fume. Use enough
ventilation and/or exhaust at the arc to keep
fumes and gases away from the breathing zone. When
welding with electrodes which require special
ventilation such as stainless or hard facing (see
instructions on container or MSDS) or on lead or
cadmium plated steel and other metals or coatings
which produce highly toxic fumes, keep exposure as
low as possible and below Threshold Limit Values (TLV)
using local exhaust or mechanical ventilation. In
confined spaces or in some circumstances, outdoors, a
respirator may be required. Additional precautions are
also required when welding on galvanized steel.
5. b. The operation of welding fume control equipment is affected
by various factors including proper use and positioning of
the equipment, maintenance of the equipment and the spe-
cific welding procedure and application involved. Worker
exposure level should be checked upon installation and
periodically thereafter to be certain it is within applicable
OSHA PEL and ACGIH TLV limits.
5.c.
Do not weld in locations near chlorinated hydrocarbon
vapors
coming from degreasing, cleaning or spraying operations.
The heat and rays of the arc can react with solvent vapors
to
form phosgene, a highly toxic gas, and other irritating prod-
ucts.
5.d. Shielding gases used for arc welding can displace air and
cause injury or death. Always use enough ventilation,
especially in confined areas, to insure breathing air is safe.
5.e. Read and understand the manufacturerʼs instructions for this
equipment and the consumables to be used, including the
material safety data sheet (MSDS) and follow your
employerʼs safety practices. MSDS forms are available from
your welding distributor or from the manufacturer.
5.f. Also see item 1.b.

8.b. Install equipment in accordance with the U.S. National
Electrical Code, all local codes and the manufacturerʼs
recommendations.
8.c. Ground the equipment in accordance with the U.S. National
Electrical Code and the manufacturerʼs recommendations.
CYLINDER may explode
if damaged.
7.a. Use only compressed gas cylinders
containing the correct shielding gas for the
process used and properly operating
regulators designed for the gas and
pressure used. All hoses, fittings, etc. should be suitable for
the application and maintained in good condition.
7.b. Always keep cylinders in an upright position securely
chained to an undercarriage or fixed support.
7.c. Cylinders should be located:
• Away from areas where they may be struck or subjected to
physical damage.
• A safe distance from arc welding or cutting operations and
any other source of heat, sparks, or flame.
7.d. Never allow the electrode, electrode holder or any other
electrically “hot” parts to touch a cylinder.
7.e. Keep your head and face away from the cylinder valve outlet
when opening the cylinder valve.
7.f. Valve protection caps should always be in place and hand
tight except when the cylinder is in use or connected for
use.
7.g. Read and follow the instructions on compressed gas
cylinders, associated equipment, and CGA publication P-l,
“Precautions for Safe Handling of Compressed Gases in
Cylinders,” available from the Compressed Gas Association
1235 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22202.

WELDING and CUTTING
SPARKS can
cause fire or explosion.
6.a.
Remove fire hazards from the welding area.
If this is not possible, cover them to prevent
the welding sparks from starting a fire.
Remember that welding sparks and hot
materials from welding can easily go through small cracks
and openings to adjacent areas. Avoid welding near
hydraulic lines. Have a fire extinguisher readily available.
6.b. Where compressed gases are to be used at the job site,
special precautions should be used to prevent hazardous
situations. Refer to “Safety in Welding and Cutting” (ANSI
Standard Z49.1) and the operating information for the
equipment being used.
6.c. When not welding, make certain no part of the electrode
circuit is touching the work or ground. Accidental contact
can cause overheating and create a fire hazard.
6.d. Do not heat, cut or weld tanks, drums or containers until the
proper steps have been taken to insure that such procedures
will not cause flammable or toxic vapors from substances
inside. They can cause an explosion even
though
they have
been “cleaned”. For information, purchase “Recommended
Safe Practices for the
Preparation
for Welding and Cutting of
Containers and Piping That Have Held Hazardous
Substances”, AWS F4.1 from the American Welding Society
(see address above).
6.e. Vent hollow castings or containers before heating, cutting or
welding. They may explode.
6.f.
Sparks and spatter are thrown from the welding arc. Wear oil
free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt,
cuffless trousers, high shoes and a cap over your hair. Wear
ear plugs when welding out of position or in confined places.
Always wear safety glasses with side shields when in a
welding area.
6.g. Connect the work cable to the work as close to the welding
area as practical. Work cables connected to the building
framework or other locations away from the welding area
increase the possibility of the welding current passing
through lifting chains, crane cables or other alternate cir-
cuits. This can create fire hazards or overheat lifting chains
or cables until they fail.
6.h. Also see item 1.c.
6.I. Read and follow NFPA 51B “ Standard for Fire Prevention
During Welding, Cutting and Other Hot Work”, available
from NFPA, 1 Batterymarch Park,PO box 9101, Quincy, Ma
022690-9101.
6.j. Do not use a welding power source for pipe thawing.

use with solid wire gas-metal-arc or CV Submerged
arc processes, as well as cored wire for Outershield
GMA or Innershield processes.
The wire type and size range for the wire drive used,
and gear ratio change selected, are given in the
Specifications.
Recommended power sources are Lincoln Electric
Company constant voltage power sources with 42
VAC auxiliary power and a 14-pin connector recepta-
cle. At the time of printing these include: CV 250,
CV300-I, CV-300, CV400-I, CV-400, CV500-I, DC-
400, DC-600, CV-655, Invertec V300-PRO, V350-
PRO DC-650 PRO and DC- 655.
The DC-250, DC-1000 and the Pulse Power 500 (CV
mode only) may also be used with the LN-10 if the
optional K1520-1 115V / 42V Transformer Kit is used.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
INSTALLATION OF THE LN-10
BOOM MOUNT WIRE FEEDER
COMPONENTS
Mounting the 10 Series Double Header
Wire Drive
Mount the 10 Series wire drive to the boom or struc-
ture using the four 5/16-18 threaded mounting holes
located on the bottom of the drive connection box.
See Figure A.1 for the size and location of the mount-
ing holes. The feed plate assembly is electrically "hot"
when the gun trigger is pressed. Therefore, make cer-
tain the feed plate does not come in contact with the
structure on which the unit is mounted.
The wire drive unit should be mounted so that the
drive rolls are in a vertical plane so dirt will not collect
in the drive roll area. Pivot the feed plate so it will
point down at an angle so the wire feed gun cable will
not be bent sharply as it comes from the unit. See
“Procedure for setting angle of Feed Plate” in the
OPERATION section of this manual.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can
kill.
• Turn the input power off at the power source
disconnect switch before attempting to connect
the input power to the LN-10 Control.
• Only qualified personnel should perform this installation.

FIGURE A.1
Mounting Synergic 7F Wire Drive Unit
(K679-1 or -2)
Mount the wire feed unit by means of the insulated
mounting bracket attached to the bottom of the gearbox.
Reference L9777 (included with Drive unit) to find the
size and location of the mounting holes. The gearbox
assembly is electrically “hot” when the gun trigger is
pressed. Therefore, make certain the gearbox does not
come in contact with the structure on which the unit is
mounted.
The wire feed unit should be mounted so that the drive
rolls are in a vertical plane so dirt will not collect in the
drive roll area. Position the mechanism so it will point
down at about a 45° angle so the wire feed gun cable will
not be bent sharply as it comes from the unit.
Note: The K1562-1 control box must be used with the
K679-1 or -2.
Mounting the LN-10 Control Box
The same control box is used for both a 10 Series drive,
or a Synergic 7F drive. The back plate of the control box
has two keyhole slots and one bottom slot for mounting.
See Figure A.2 for the size and location of these slots.
Mount the box at some convenient location close to the
wire drive unit which will enable the desired control cable
to reach between the control box and the wire drive unit.
a) Drill the required holes in the mounting surface,
partially install 1/4-20 screws.
b) Mount the box.
c) Tighten the screws.
Connecting Wire Drive Unit to Control Box
One head to control cable assembly is required. The
Head to Control cable assemblies are available in two
types:
K1498-"L" -Includes a control cable with 14-pin ms-style
connectors on each end, and a 3/0 weld
cable (rated 600 amps, 60% duty cycle) to
route between the wire drive and the control
box. Available in lengths "" of 16 ft. (4.9 m),
20 ft. (6.1 m) and 25 ft. (7.6 m)
K681-"L" - Same as K1498, but does not include weld
cable. Available in lengths "L" of 12 ft (3.6 m),
16 ft (4.9 m) and 25 ft. (7.6 m).
a) Making certain the cables are protected from any
sharp corners which may damage their jackets,
mount the cable assembly along the boom so the end
with the female amphenol connector pins is at the
wire feed unit.
b) Connect the 14-socket cable connectors to the mating
receptacles on the back of the wire feed unit connec-
tion box.
c) At the same end, connect the electrode lead to the
1/2" connection bolt on the front of the left wire drive
head feed plate.
d) At the control box end, connect the 14 pin connectors
of the cable to the mating receptacle on the bottom of
the control box.
e) At the control box current sensor, slip the cover box
up off the sensor and connect the electrode cable(s)
to the top bolt connection.

Electrode Routing
The electrode supply may be either from reels, Readi-
Reels, spools, or bulk packaged drums or reels.
Observe the following precautions:
a) The electrode must be routed to the wire drive
unit so that the bends in the wire are at a mini-
mum, and also that the force required to pull the
wire from the reel into the wire drive unit is kept
at a minimum.
b) The electrode is "hot" when the gun trigger is
pressed and must be insulated from the boom
and structure.
c) If more than one wire feed unit shares the same
boom and are not sharing the some power
source output stud, their wire and reels must be
insulated from each other as well as insulated
from their mounting structure.
WIRE DRIVE SPEED RANGE
SELECTION
The rated speed and wire size range for each wire
drive head is shown in the SPECIFICATIONS in the
front of this section.
Control Speed Range Setting
The speed range is set up to match the wire feed
head connected to the LN-10 control by properly set-
ting the switch (S1) code on the control board inside
the control box. See OPERATION “Setting the DIP
Switches” for setting instructions.
10 Series Wire Drive Ratio Selection
The 10 Series type drives include two external gear
sizes; a 1" dia. gear and a 1-1/2" dia. gear. The small-
er gear provides the low speed range ratio, and the
larger gear provides the high speed range ratio per
the SPECIFICATIONS in the front of this section.
The following procedure is for changing ratio of the 10
Series wire drive:
1) Pull open the Pressure Door.
2) Remove the Phillips head screw retaining the pin-
ion gear to be changed and remove the gear. If the
gear is not easily accessible or difficult to remove,
remove the feedplate from the gearbox. To remove
feedplate:
a) Loosen the clamping collar screw using a 3/16"
Allen wrench. The clamping collar screw is
accessed from the bottom of the feedplate. It is
the screw which is perpendicular to the feeding
direction.
b) Loosen the retaining screw, which is also
accessed from bottom of feeder, using a 3/16"
Allen wrench. Continue to loosen the screw
until the feedplate can be easily pulled off of the
wire feeder.
3) Loosen, but do not remove, the screw on the lower
right face of the feedplate with a 3/16" Allen
wrench.
4) Remove the screw on the left face of the feedplate.
If changing from high speed (larger gear) to low
speed (smaller gear), line the lower hole on the left
face of the feedplate with the threads on the
clamping collar. Line the upper hole with the
threads to install larger gear for high speed feeder.
If feedplate does not rotate to allow holes to line
up, further loosen the screw on right face of feed-
plate.
5) Install gear onto output shaft and secure with flat
washer, lock washer, and Phillips head screw
which were previously removed.
6) Tighten the screw on lower right face of feedplate.
7) Re-attach feedplate to wire feeder if removed in
Step 2.
8) Feedplate will be rotated out-of-position due to the
gear change. To re-adjust angle of feedplate:
a) Loosen the clamping collar using a 3/16" Allen
wrench. The clamping collar screw is accessed
from the bottom of the feedplate. It is the screw
which is perpendicular to the feeding direction.
b) Rotate feedplate to the desired angle and tight-
en clamping collar screw.
9) Make sure to properly set the switch (S2) code on
the control board inside the control box for the
new gear size installed. See OPERATION “Setting
the DIP Switch” for setting instructions.

throughout this manual.
1. Instead of displaying a preset value in volts, the top
display will show a number from "0.00" to "10.00" in
increments of 0.02. The number can be used for
setting run-in "voltage" as well as "weld preset volt-
age". When the trigger is closed or while welding,
the top display will display actual arc voltage.
The voltage displayed while welding can be used to
determine the arc voltage to be expected for a given
number setting. Actual arc voltage display will still
flash for 5 seconds after a weld has been completed.
2. If a loss of arc voltage occurs, wire will NOT stop
feeding. The Loss of Voltage Sense Shutdown fea-
ture is disabled to permit the use of the LN-10 with
power source connections that do not connect the
work voltage back to the LN-10 through the input
power cable. The actual weld voltage while welding
will NOT be shown on the top display if the work
voltage is not available to the LN-10 through the
input power cable.

Keypad and Display Description
Keypad - Seven key, membrane type with "snap" tac-
tile feel and embossed domes. Long life design.
Spatter resistant surface.
Displays - Two digital LED displays with .56" (14.2
mm) character height. Top (3-1/2 digit) displays
Preset and Actual (while welding) arc voltage in volts
with (+) or (-) polarity indicators, and also displays all
timers in seconds. Bottom (4 digit) displays preset
wire feed speed in IPM, or m/m, and acceleration
selection.
Indicator Lights - Extra bright red LEDs for viewing
at almost any angle. Always indicate the feeder and
procedure selected, trigger mode being used and
function or timer being displayed.
Rotating Encoders - Knob controls increase or
decrease settings of volts and wire feed speed. (ini-
tially factory set to minimum) Alternately, the top
encoder adjusts timer settings and bottom selects
acceleration settings when selected for these parame-
ters to be displayed.
Power-Down Save
Power to the LN-10 is supplied and controlled from
the power source. The LN-10 automatically senses
the loss of power when the power source is turned off.
Dual procedure settings, including; trigger mode, cold
feed speed, Run-in and weld speed and voltage,
timers and acceleration are automatically saved for
each feeder when power is removed. This feature
does not require batteries and when power is restored
it will automatically return all settings to the state they
were in when power was removed. The operator may
overwrite any or all of these settings following power
up recall.
Operation Keys
Procedure Lights - Indicate which
procedure (A or B) is selected for the
selected feeder. The Procedure select
key selects A or B, or if REMOTE Light
is selected, the procedure selection
light is controlled by connection of an
optional Dual Procedure gun switch
(K683-1, -3) or Dual Procedure
Remote Control (K1449-1).
Cold Feed Keys - energize
the wire feeder but not the
power source or gas sole-
noid valve. Cold Feed
Forward speed is factory
set at 200 IPM, but is adjustable with WFS encoder
knob and displayed on WFS display (with ”Cld” shown
on the Voltage display) only while pressing Cold Feed
Forward, and the last speed set is stored in memory
for the next cold feeding, unless changed in Cold
Feed trigger mode (see following section). Cold Feed
Reverse retracts wire at a fixed 80 IPM speed which is
not adjustable.

Trigger Mode Selection
Trigger Mode Select key
-enables operator to
choose mode of operation
shown by the indicator
lights. Pressing key caus-
es mode lights to
sequence (top to bottom) starting from the current
indicated selection.
Top Light - Indicates gun trigger has been selected to
perform the Cold Feed Forward function in exactly the
same manner as Cold Feed Forward key (See
Operation Keys - Cold Feed Keys) with the same
memory stored adjustable speed setting, and “Cld”
shown on the Voltage display.
Second Light - indicates 2-step (standard) trigger
mode.
1. Trigger closure energizes the solenoid valve,
then the wire feeder and the power source
after Preflow time.
2. Releasing the trigger turns off the wire feeder,
then power source after burnback time and
then the gas solenoid valve after Postflow time.
Third Light - indicates 4-step (lock) trigger mode.
This mode may be selected to include or exclude weld
current interlock. (See “4-Step Trigger Mode
Operation Selection” in this section for 4 step Trigger
Mode operation)
Bottom Light - indicates Spot Weld Mode, which will
only light if a spot time is set (See “Display Control
Keys” in this section). If set to 0.0 seconds, spot
mode light selection will be skipped. Trigger closure
energizes the gas solenoid valve, then wire feeder
and the power source. The spot timer starts when
current flows. The wire feeder and power source then
solenoid valve are all turned off when the spot on
timer times out even though the trigger is opened or is
still closed. Preflow/Postflow and burnback timers are
also functional in spot mode. (See “Display Control
Keys” in this section).
Display Control Keys
Timer Select key - enables operator to
choose burnback, spot or gas timers, as
indicated by the appropriate light.
Pressing the key causes lights to
sequence (top to bottom, then all off) starting from the
current indicated selection.
When a timer is selected the Voltage display shows
the time setting in seconds, as indicated by “SEC” dis-
played on the speed display. The times are set using
the Voltage encoder knob.
Top Light - indicates preflow time
is being displayed, set 0.0 to 2.5
seconds (0.2 sec as shipped). This
is the time the shielding gas flows
before the wire feed and power
source are activated.
Second Light - indicates spot time is being displayed,
set 0.0 (as shipped) to 199.9 seconds.
Third Light - indicates burnback time is being dis-
played, set 0.00 (as shipped) to 0.25 seconds. This is
the time the arc power is delayed at the stop of the
weld, and should be set to the lowest time required to
prevent the wire sticking in the weld.
Bottom Light - indicates postflow time is being dis-
played, set 0.0 to 10.0 seconds (0.5 sec as shipped).
This is the
time the shielding gas flows after the wire feed and
power source are deactivated.
Pressing Timer Select Key again, or closing the gun
trigger, shuts all timer lights off, indicating weld
Voltage and Wire Feed Speed are again being dis-
played, and set by the appropriate encoder knob.

Control Select key - enables operator to
choose Run-In procedure as indicated by the
light turning on. When light is on, the settings of
Run-In Wire Feed Speed and Voltage are dis-
played. After Weld procedure is set, Run-in pro-
cedure should be set to optimize arc starting.
Speed encoder knob can adjust run-in
speed between min. rated speed and up to
the procedure Weld speed setting. Run-in
speed setting can not exceed Weld speed
setting. Run-in speed setting of 100 IPM or less is recommend-
ed for optimum starting. Factory setting is near min. rated
speed.
If set below minimum rated speed “- -” will show on the WFS
display, indicating Run-in speed is set to match weld speed set-
ting.
The Run-in (strike) voltage can be set above or below the Weld
voltage setting up to a max of 60 V. If set below a min of 10 V,
the Run-In (strike) voltage display shows “---”, indicating the
Run-In Voltage is set to match the weld voltage setting. Also,
the difference between Run-in voltage and Weld voltage set-
tings is maintained automatically if the Weld voltage setting is
changed, so the run-in voltage encoder knob does not need to
be changed to follow the Weld voltage setting.
When trigger is closed (and preflow time is over) the wire feeds
at Run-In speed and volts until the welding arc strikes, which
causes the feed speed and volts to change to Weld settings.
If the arc does not strike within about 2 seconds, the Run-In
speed automatically changes to Weld speed to permit “Hot”
feeding at higher speed setting for loading wire.
Pressing control key again, or closing the gun trigger, shuts off
light indicating knob settings and displays are returned to Weld
Voltage and Wire Feed Speed.
Digital “Memory” Voltmeter
When the welding gun trigger is activated, the top LN-10 display
reads actual welding voltage from 0.0 to 60.0 VDC with auto-
matic polarity indication for positive (+) or negative (-) electrode.
If actual voltage drops below 8.0 volts for over 0.8 sec when the
trigger is closed, Loss of Voltage Sense Shutdown will occur.
See “Loss of Voltage Sense Shutdown” in this section.
The last welding voltage monitored at the end of the weld is dis-
played for 5 seconds after the weld has stopped, as indicated
by a 5 second “blinking” display. This allows checking actual
weld voltage after weld has stopped.
Any keypad or trigger operation will interrupt the 5 second
memory display.
Acceleration Selection
To provide optimum starting of various
processes and procedures, the wire feed
acceleration of the LN-10 can be set to five lev-
els; 1 thru 5, for each feeder and procedure. 1
is the slowest acceleration and 5 is the fastest.
(Factory set to 4.)
To change acceleration hold the Gas Purge Key closed, then
press the Control key. The top (Voltage) display shows “Acc”
indicating acceleration setting, 1 thru 5, is displayed on the bot-
tom (Speed) display. Use the speed encoder knob to change
setting from 1 thru 5.
To exit this function, and enter the acceleration setting into the
procedure memory, press both keys again or close the trigger.
Security Mode
Security mode is used to capture timer, acceleration, and control
selections and settings, then to disable these selections until
security mode is deactivated. Encoder knob setting changes of
cold feed, weld speed and weld voltage are not disabled.
Security mode is activated, or deactivated, by shutting off the
input power to the LN-10 with all Timer and Control settings as
desired for both procedures for both Feeders. Then setting S2
DIP switch 3 inside the LN-10 Control Box ON or OFF and restor-
ing input power (See “Setting DIP Switches” in this section).
When activated, the Timer and Control selections no longer light,
but function with the captured settings. All other keys and
encoder knob controls function normally.

Maximum and Minimum Limits Setting
Modes
Limits setting modes are available for limiting the
range for setting wire feed speed and voltage. The
limits can be set independently for each procedure.
The following steps should be followed for setting the
maximum and minimum limits:
1. Turn off the power at the power source.
2. Remove the two screws at the top of the LN-10
control box and open the control box door.
3. Put DIP switch S2 switch 5 in the ON position.
4. Close the control box door.
5. Turn on the power at the power source.
6. Set the maximum WFS and voltage limits for pro-
cedure A and procedure B using the two encoder
knobs and the procedure key. The maximum WFS
limit can be set for the entire range of the wire
drive that is being used. The maximum voltage
limit can be set over the range of 10.0 to 60.0 volts.
The maximum limits can be turned off indepen-
dently for each procedure by turning the encoder
knobs clockwise until the appropriate display (WFS
or voltage) reads “OFF” while the correct proce-
dure light is lit. (The limits are set to “OFF” from
the factory.
7. Turn off the power at the power source.
8. Open the control box door.
9. Put DIP switch S2 switch 5 in the OFF position and
DIP switch S2 switch 6 in the ON position.
10. Close the control box door.
11. Turn on the power at the power source.
12. Set the minimum WFS and voltage limits for pro-
cedure A and procedure B using the two encoder
knobs and the procedure key. The minimum WFS
limit can be set from the minimum speed of the
wire drive that is being used to the maximum limit
that has been set for the selected procedure. The
minimum voltage limit can be set over the range of
10.0 to the maximum voltage limit that has been
set for the selected procedure. The minimum lim-
its can be turned off independently for each proce-
dure by turning the encoder knobs counter clock-
wise until the appropriate display (WFS or voltage
reads “OFF” while the correct procedure light is
lit. (The limits are set to “OFF” from the factory).
13. Turn off the power at the power source.
14. Open the control box door.
15. Put DIP switch S2 switch 6 in the OFF position.
16. Close the control box door.
17. Reinstall the two screws that had previously been
removed in step 2.

4) Rotate the spindle and adapter so the retaining
spring is at the 12 o'clock position.
5) Position the Readi-Reel so that it will rotate in a
direction when feeding so as to be de-reeled from
bottom of the coil.
6) Set one of the Readi-Reel inside cage wires on the
slot in the retaining spring tab.
7) Lower the Readi-Reel to depress the retaining
spring and align the other inside cage wires with
the grooves in the molded adapter.
8) Slide cage all the way onto the adapter until the
retaining spring "pops up" fully.
Check to be sure the Retaining Spring has fully
returned to the locking position and has SECURELY
locked the Readi-Reel Cage in place. Retaining
Spring must rest on the cage, not the welding elec-
trode.
___________________________________________
9) To remove Readi-Reel from Adapter, depress
retaining spring tab with thumb while pulling the
Readi-Reel cage from the molded adapter with
both hands. Do not remove adapter from spindle.

To Mount a 50-60 Lb. (22.7-27.2 kg) Coil:
(Using K1504-1 Coil Reel) (For 50-60 lb Readi-
Reels a K438 Readi-Reel Adapter must be used).
The Spindle must be located in the UPPER mounting hole.
1) With the K1504-1 Coil Reel mounted on to the 2"
(51 mm) spindle (or with reel laying flat on the
floor) loosen the spinner nut and remove the reel
cover. (See Figure B.2).
2) Before cutting the tie wires, place the coil of elec-
trode on the reel so it unwinds from the bottom as
the reel rotates.
3) Tighten the spinner nut against the reel cover as
much as possible by hand using the reel cover
spokes for leverage. DO NOT hammer on the
spinner nut arms.
4) Cut and remove only the tie wire holding the free
end of the coil. Hook the free end around the rim
of the reel cover and secure it by wrapping it
around. Cut and remove the remaining tie wires.
Always be sure the free end of the coil is securely
held while the tie wires are being cut and until the wire
is feeding through the drive rolls. Failure to do this will
result in “backlashing” of the coil, which may tangle
the wire. A tangled coil will not feed so it must either
be untangled or discarded.
___________________________________________
5) Be sure the coil reel is engaged with the spindle
brake pin and the Release Bar on the Retaining
Collar “pops up” and that the collar retainers fully
engage the retaining groove on the spindle.

FEEDING ELECTRODE AND BRAKE
ADJUSTMENT
1) Turn the Reel or spool until the free end of the
electrode is accessible.
2) While tightly holding the electrode, cut off the bent
end and straighten the first 6" (150 mm). Cut off
the first 1" (25 mm). (If the electrode is not proper-
ly straightened, it may not feed or may jam causing
a "birdnest".)
3) Insert the free end through the incoming guide
tube.
4) Press the Cold Inch key or the Cold Feed Mode
gun trigger and push the electrode into the drive
roll.
When feeding with the gun trigger, unless “COLD
FEED” trigger mode is selected, the electrode and
drive mechanism are always “HOT” to work and
ground and could remain “HOT” several seconds after
the gun trigger is released.
___________________________________________
5) Feed the electrode through the gun.
6) Adjust the brake tension with the thumbscrew on
the spindle hub, until the reel turns freely but with
little or no overrun when wire feeding is stopped.
Do not overtighten.
DRIVE ROLL PRESSURE SETTING
The LN-10 pressure is factory pre-set to about posi-
tion “2" as shown on the pressure indicator on the
front of the feedplate door. This is an approximate
setting.
The optimum drive roll pressure varies with type of
wire, surface condition, lubrication, and hardness.
Too much pressure could cause “birdnesting”, but too
little pressure could cause wire feed slippage with
load and/or acceleration. The optimum drive roll set-
ting can be determined as follows:

OPERATION
B-12
1) Press end of gun against a solid object that is
electrically isolated from the welder output and
press the gun trigger for several seconds.
2) If the wire "birdnests", jams, or breaks at the drive
roll, the drive roll pressure is too great. Back the
pressure setting out 1/2 turn, run new wire through
gun, and repeat above steps.
3) If the only result is drive roll slippage, disengage
the gun, pull the gun cable forward about 6" (150
mm). There should be a slight waviness in the
exposed wire. If there is no waviness, the pres-
sure is too low. Increase the pressure setting
turn, reconnect the gun, tighten locking clamp and
repeat the above steps.
PROCEDURE FOR SETTING ANGLE
OF FEEDPLATE
1) Loosen the clamping collar screw using a 3/16"
Allen wrench. The clamping collar screw is
accessed from the bottom of the feedplate. It is
the screw which is perpendicular to the feeding
direction.
2) Rotate feedplate to the desired angle and tighten
clamping collar screw.
GAS GUARD REGULATOR SETTING
NOTE: Gas supply pressure must be regulated to a
maximum of 80 psi(5.5 bar).
1) With the gas supply shut off, the Gas Guard regu-
lator flow adjusting Key should be set to maximum
(full clockwise) which is rated to be 60 SCFH (28
l/min).
2) Adjust gas supply flow rate for a level higher than
will be required, then adjust Gas Guard flow
adjusting Key counterclockwise to the desired gas
flow rate.
MAKING A WELD
1) Use only a Lincoln Electric recommended constant
voltage DC power source compatible with the LN-
10 Wire Feeder.
2) Properly connect the electrode and work leads for
the correct electrode polarity.
3) Use the Mode Selection key to set desired trigger
mode for each procedure. (Refer to “Trigger Mode
Selection” in this section)
4) Use Control Select and encoder knobs to set desired
Weld feed speed and voltage then Run-in speed and
voltage to optimize arc starting. (Set for each proce-
dure if using front panel, remote control or optional
dual procedure switch.) (Refer to “Operation Keys”
and “Display Control Keys” in this section)
5) Adjust the wire feed acceleration if desired, for
each feeder and procedure. (Refer to “Acceleration
Selection” in this section)
6) Use Timer Select and Voltage Encoder knob to set
desired timers. (Refer to “Trigger Mode Selection”
in this section)
7) Feed the electrode through the gun and cable and
then cut the electrode within approximately .38"
(9.5 mm) of the end of the contact tip for solid wire
and within approximately .75" (19mm) of the exten-
sion guide for cored wire.
8) Connect work cable to metal to be welded. Work
cable must make good electrical contact to the
work. The work must also be grounded as stated in
"Arc Welding Safety Precautions".
9) If used, be sure shielding gas valve is turned on.
10) Position electrode over joint. End of electrode
may be lightly touching the work.
11) Lower welding helmet, close gun trigger, and start
welding. Hold the gun so the contact tip to work
distance gives the correct electrical stickout as
required for the procedure being used.
12) To stop welding, release the gun trigger and then
pull the gun away from the work after the arc goes
out and Postflow time, if used, is over.
13) If necessary to optimize arc starting, readjust wire
speed acceleration, (Refer to “Acceleration
Selection” in this section) and/or Run-In speed,
(Refer to “Display Control Keys” in this section).

OPERATION
B-13
WIRE REEL CHANGING
At the end of a coil, remove the last of the old elec-
trode coil from the conductor cable by either pulling it
out at the nozzle end of the gun or by using the follow-
ing procedure:
1) Cut the end of the electrode off at the gun end. Do
not break it off by hand because this puts a slight
bend in the wire making it difficult to pull it back
through the nozzle.
2) Disconnect the gun cable from the gun connector
on the LN-10 wire drive unit and lay the gun and
cable out straight.
3) Using pliers to grip the wire, pull it out of the cable
from the connector end.
4) After the electrode has been removed, reconnect
the gun cable to the drive. Load a new reel of elec-
trode per the instructions in “Wire Reel Loading” in
this section.
LOSS OF VOLTAGE SENSE SHUTDOWN
If the actual displayed voltage, when the trigger is
closed, drops below 8.0 volts for over 0.8 second it is
assumed the voltage feed back sensing circuit to the
LN-10 is opened or faulty, so Loss of Voltage Sense
Shutdown occurs until the trigger is released.
This shutdown stops the motor, shuts off the gas flow
and disables the power source output to prevent the
LN-10 voltage control from driving the power source
output too high due to loss of proper feedback sensing
via #21 (WORK) and #67 (ELECTRODE) sensing
leads.
WIRE FEED OVERLOAD PROTECTION
The LN-10 has solid-state overload protection of the
wire drive motor. If the wire drive motor becomes
overloaded for an extended period of time, the protec-
tion circuitry turns off the power source, wire feed and
gas solenoid, and then displays “H30” on the WFS
display (with blank Voltage display). This indicates
the wire drive motor is overloaded and will remain
shut down for about 30 seconds before the unit will
automatically reset. The “H30” display decrements
every second until it reaches “H00”. At that time, the
unit resets automatically and the previous displays will
return indicating the unit is ready to operate again.
Overloads can result from improper tip size, liner,
drive rolls, or guide tubes, obstructions or bends in the
gun cable, feeding wire that is larger than the rated
capacity of the feeder or any other factors that would
impede normal wire feeding. (See “Avoiding Wire
Feeding Problems” in the MAINTENANCE section).
GROUNDING LEAD PROTECTOR
The frame of the LN-10 Control is grounded to the
frame of the power source by a lead in the control
cable. An overload protector prevents welding current
from damaging this lead if the electrode circuit touch-
es the wire feeder frame while the electrode is electri-
cally hot.
If such a grounding lead fault occurs, the WFS display
will show “GLP,” (with blank Voltage display) and the
trigger circuit will be disabled. To reset the circuit,
release the trigger, make sure that the electrode is not
touching the wire feeder frame, and then either press
any key on the keypad or close the trigger. When the
GLP circuit is reset, the “GLP” display is removed and
the wire feeder is returned to normal operating mode.

Avoiding Wire Feeding Problems
Wire feeding problems can be avoided by observing
the following gun handling and feeder set up proce-
dures:
• Do not kink or pull cable around sharp corners.
• Keep the electrode cable as straight as possible
when welding or loading electrode through cable.
• Do not allow dolly wheels or trucks to run over
cables.
• Keep cable clean by following maintenance
instructions.
• Use only clean, rust-free electrode. The Lincoln
electrodes have proper surface lubrication.
• Replace contact tip when the arc starts to become
unstable or the contact tip end is fused or
deformed.
• Do not use excessive wire spindle brake settings.
• Use proper drive rolls, guide tubes and drive roll
pressure settings.
Periodic Maintenance
Wire Drive Motor and Gearbox
Every year inspect the gearbox and coat the gear
teeth with a moly-disulfide filled grease. Do not use
graphite grease.
Every six months check the motor brushes. Replace
them if they are less than 1/4” long.
Gun and Cable Maintenance
See appropriate Operatorʼs Manual.
Procedure for Removing Feedplate from
Wire Feeder
1) Loosen the clamping collar screw using a 3/16"
Allen wrench. The clamping collar screw is
accessed from the bottom of the feedplate. It is
the screw which is perpendicular to the feeding
direction.
2) Loosen the retaining screw, which is also
accessed from bottom of feeder, using a 3/16"
Allen wrench. Continue to loosen the screw until
the feedplate can be easily pulled off of the wire
feeder.
MAINTENANCE
Safety Precautions
Routine Maintenance
Drive Rolls and Guide Tubes
After feeding every coil of wire, inspect the drive roll
section. Clean it as necessary. Do not use a solvent
for cleaning the idle roll because it may wash the
lubricant out of the bearing. The driver roll and guide
tubes are stamped with the wire sizes they will feed.
If a wire size other than that stamped on the roll(s) is
to be used, the roll(s) and guide tubes must be
changed.
The drive rolls for .035” (0.9mm) through .052”
(1.3mm) cored electrode and 1/16” (1.6mm) through
3/32” (2.4mm) electrode have a double set of teeth so
they can be reversed for additional life. Drive rolls for
.023" (0.6 mm) through .052" (1.3 mm) solid elec-
trodes and aluminum sizes have no teeth, but use two
grooves so they also can be reversed for additional
life.
See “Procedure to Install Drive Roll and Guide Tubes”
in the INSTALLATION section for roll changing
instructions.
Wire Reel Mounting - Readi-Reels and
10lb through 30lb (4.5-14kg) Spools
No routine maintenance required. Do not lubricate 2”
(51mm) spindle.
WARNING
Observe all additional Safety Guidelines detailed
throughout this manual.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.
• Do not touch electrically live parts such
as output terminals or internal wiring.
•
When inching with gun trigger, electrode and
drive mechanism are “hot” to work and
ground and could remain energized several
seconds after the gun trigger is released.
• Turn OFF input power at welding power
source before installation or changing
drive roll and/or guide tubes.
• Welding power source must be connected
to system ground per the National
Electrical Code or any applicable local
codes.
•Only qualified personnel should
perform this installation.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
WARNING
Procedure for Replacing PC Boards
Before replacing a PC board which is suspected of
being defective, visually inspect the PC board in ques-
tion for any electrical or mechanical damage to any of
its components and conductors on the back of the
board.
a. If there is no visible damage to the PC board, install
a new one and see if this remedies the problem. If
the problem is remedied, reinstall the old PC board
to see if the problem still exists. If it does no longer
exist with old PC board:
1. Check the PC board harness connector pins for
corrosion, contamination, or looseness.
2. Check leads in the plug harness for loose or
intermittent connection.
b. If PC board is visibly damaged electrically, before
possibly subjecting the new PC board to the same
cause of failure, check for possible shorts, opens, or
grounds caused by:
1. Frayed or pinched lead insulation.
2. Poor lead termination, such as a poor contact or
a short to adjacent connection or surface.
3. Shorted or open motor leads, or other external
leads.
4. Foreign matter or interference behind the PC
boards.
