5. MIG Gun Adaptor (Euro Style)<br />
The MIG gun adaptor is the connection point for the MIG welding gun. Connect the gun by pushing the gun<br />
connector into the brass gun adaptor firmly and screwing the plastic nut clockwise to secure in position. To<br />
remove the MIG gun simply reverse these directions.<br />
6. Positive Welding Output Terminal<br />
The positive welding terminal is used to connect the welding output of the power source to the appropriate<br />
welding accessory such as the MIG gun (via the MIG polarity lead), electrode holder lead or work lead. Positive<br />
welding current flows from the power source via this heavy duty bayonet type terminal. It is essential, however,<br />
that the male plug is inserted and turned securely to achieve a sound electrical connection.<br />
CAUTION<br />
Loose welding terminal connections can cause overheating and result in the male plug being fused in<br />
the bayonet terminal.<br />
7. MIG Polarity Lead<br />
The polarity lead is used to connect the MIG gun to the appropriate positive or negative output terminal (allowing<br />
polarity reversal for different welding applications). In general, the polarity lead should be connected<br />
in to the positive welding terminal (+) when using steel, stainless steel or aluminium electrode wire. When<br />
using gasless wire, the polarity lead is generally connected to the negative welding terminal (-). If in doubt,<br />
consult the manufacturer of the electrode wire for the correct polarity. It is essential, however, that the male<br />
plug is inserted and turned securely to achieve a sound electrical connection.<br />
CAUTION<br />
Loose welding terminal connections can cause overheating and result in the male plug being fused in<br />
the bayonet terminal.<br />
8. Negative Welding Output Terminal<br />
The negative welding terminal is used to connect the welding output of the power source to the appropriate<br />
welding accessory such as the MIG gun (via the MIG polarity lead), TIG torch or work lead. Negative welding<br />
current flows to the power source via this heavy duty bayonet type terminal. It is essential, however, that the<br />
male plug is inserted and turned securely to achieve a sound electrical connection.<br />
CAUTION<br />
Loose welding terminal connections can cause overheating and result in the male plug being fused in<br />
the bayonet terminal.<br />
9. Remote Control Socket<br />
The 8 pin Remote Control Socket is used to connect remote control devices to the welding power source. To<br />
make connections, align keyway, insert plug, and rotate threaded collar fully clockwise.<br />
