CONNECTION TO L-TEC ADAPTED FEEDERS
Gun and cable assemblies which were assembled with
a K466-5 connection kit will connect easily to an L-Tec
feeder equipped with an L-Tec feeder connector
assembly. L-Tec feeders require this connector assem-
bly (similar to a Tweco adapter) to connect with a gun
and cable.
a. Check that the adapter and feeder outgoing guide
as well as the drive roll, are appropriate for the elec-
trode size being used.
b. Fully push the brass connector end of the gun cable
into the brass adapter on the outgoing side of the
feeder wire drive. Secure the cable using the hand
screw, set screw, or pin.
c. Insert the control cable plug from the feeder trigger
circuit into the mating socket on the gun cable con-
nector handle. For machines with a twist-lock trigger
lead receptacle, if the L-Tec gun control cable does
not easily connect with the socket, the gun control
cable that came with the K466-5 kit can be used. To
do this, cut off the gun control leads as close to the
forked terminals as possible and skin back the leads
7/16” (11 mm). Remove the twist-lock plug from the
L-Tec control cable and connect it to the K466-5
cable. Make sure the outer jacket of the connector is
caught within the plug’s strain relief.

trode size being used.
