INSTALLATION
B-2
For K466-3 and K466-4, screw in the connector
cap provided in the kit until it seats on the face of
the bushing. Then insert the appropriate piece of
liner material into the connector cap and tighten the
set screw. Three pieces of liner material are includ-
ed in these connector kits to help guide the elec-
trode through the connector cap. The piece with
the smallest inner diameter is designed for .045”
(1.2 mm) maximum diameter electrode. The next
largest diameter is for 1/16” (1.6 mm) maximum
diameter electrode. The largest diameter piece of
liner material is for 5/64” (2.0 mm) maximum diam-
eter electrode.
e. Be sure the cable is straight and then trim the liner
to the length shown in Figure B.1 (a gauge is
included on the wrench provided with the connec-
tion kit for gauging the cut-off length on 300 and
400 amp gun tubes). Remove any burrs from the
end of the liner.
f. Screw the gas diffuser onto the end of the gun tube
and tighten with the appropriate size wrench.
g. Replace the nozzle insulator and gas nozzle.

LINER INSTALLATION AND TRIMMING INSTRUCTIONS
Installation of (KP44 and KP44N series liners)
a. Lay the gun and cable straight on a flat surface.
b. Make sure that the set screw in the connector end
is backed out so as not to damage liner or liner
bushing. Remove and save the gas nozzle, nozzle
insulator, and gas diffuser from the end of the gun
tube assembly.
c. Insert a new untrimmed liner into the connector
end of the cable. Be sure the liner bushing is sten-
ciled appropriately for the wire size being used.
d. NOTE: For liners KP44N and KP45N
Before fully seating the liner bushing, it will be nec-
essary to trim the linerʼs inner tube flush with the
liner bushing using a sharp blade. After trimming,
remove any burrs from inner tube and insure that
the opening is fully open.
For all K466 connector kits except K466-3 and
K466-4, tighten the set screw in the cable connec-
tor.
