LN- 10 Heads & Controls Bench Model OPERA TOR’S MANUAL IM906 August, 2007 Safety Depends on You Lincoln arc welding and cutting equipment is designed and built with safety in mind. However, your overall safety can be increased by proper installation .
FOR ENGINE powered equipment. 1.a. Turn the engine off before troubleshooting and maintenance work unless the maintenance work requires it to be running. ____________________________________________________ 1.b. Operate engines in open, well-ventilated areas or vent the engine exhaust fumes outdoors.
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.
iii SAFETY iii FOR ELECTRICALL Y powered equipment. 8.a. Turn off input power using the disconnect switch at the fuse box before working on the equipment. 8 . b. Install equipment in accordance with the U.S. National Electrical Code, all local codes and the manufacturerʼs recommendations.

B-1 OPERA TION B-1 LN-10 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS DUTY CYCLE The LN-10 models are rated at 60% duty cycle * for a maximum current of 600 amps. * Based on a 10 minute time period (6 minutes on, and 4 minutes off).
B-2 OPERA TION B-2 Setting the DIP Switches The DIP switches are each labeled with an “ON” arrow showing the on direction for each of the 8 indi- vidual switches in each DIP switch (S1 and S2).
Metric/English Wire Feed Speed Display Selection The LN-10 Control is set up for Wire Feed Speed dis- play in Metric units (m/min.) or English units (IPM) by setting S2 DIP Switch 1 (Labeled “M”):.
Minimum Limits Setting Mode Selection The LN-10 control is set up for allowing a minimum weld WFS and arc voltage setting for each procedure by set- ting S2 DIP Switch 6 (Labeled “-”). S2 switch 6 ON - Minimum Limits Setting mode ON When Minimum Limits Setting mode is selected, all keys except the procedure key are disabled.
B-5 OPERA TION B-5 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.
B-6 OPERA TION B-6 T rigger 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.
B-7 OPERA TION B-7 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.
B-8 OPERA TION B-8 Maximum and Minimum Limits Setting Modes Limits setting modes are available for limiting the range for setting wire feed speed and voltage.

D-1 MAINTENANCE D-1 LN-10 A VOIDING 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.
E-1 TROUBLESHOOTING E-1 LN-10 If for any reason you do not understand the test procedures or are unable to perform the tests/repairs safely, contact your Local Lincoln Authorized Field Service Facility for technical troubleshooting assistance before you proceed.
Rough wire feeding or wire not feed- ing, but drive rolls are turning. Variable or “hunting” arc. 1. Gun cable kinked and/or twisted. 2. Wire jammed in gun and cable. 3. Check for current position of drive rolls relative to split wire guide groove.
1. Improper procedures or techniques. 2. Improper gas shielding. 1. Tip overheating because of prolonged or excessive high current and/or duty cycle welding. 1 . The wire drive motor may be over- loaded. “Hxx” will be displayed on the WFS display, where “xx” is the num- ber of seconds until the wire drive attempts to run again.
