FALLING EQUIPMENT
can cause serious
personal injury and
equipment damage.
Faulty or careless user installation is
possible. As a result, never stand or
walk underneath equipment.
READ INSTRUCTIONS.
Read the instruction manual before
installing and using the equipment.
2
MOVING PARTS can
cause serious injury.
1. Never try to stop the pinion from
moving except by removing power
or by using the STOP control.
2. Do not remove any protective panels,
covers or guards and operate
equipment.
HIGH FREQUENCY WARNINGS
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS ARE REQUIRED WHEN USING PLASMA,
TIG OR ANY WELDING PROCESS THAT USES HIGH FREQUENCY
TO STRIKE AN ARC.
WARNING: HIGH FREQUENCY CAN EFFECT MACHINE
OPERATION AND THEREFORE, WELD QUALITY
Read the precautions below before installing and using the equipment.
PRECAUTIONS:
1) Some plasma or welding cables are strong sources of high frequency
interference. NEVER lay a plasma or welding cable across the controls of the machine.
2) Always physically separate the plasma or welding cable leads from the machine cables. For example, the plasma or welding cable leads should NEVER be bundled with a pendant cable or the machine power cord. Maximize the separa-
tion between any machine cables and the plasma or welding cables.
3) Strictly follow the grounding procedures specied for the plasma or welding unit. NOTE: Some plasma and welding units produce exceptionally large amounts of
high frequency noise. They may require a grounding rod be driven into the earth
within six feet (2 meters) of the plasma or welding unit to become compatible
with an automatic cutting or welding process.
4) If the high frequency is produced using a spark gap, adjust the points so the gap is as small as possible. The larger the gap, the higher the voltage and the higher
the interference.
5) Some plasma or welding units will inject high frequency interference into the AC power line. Use separate power line branches whenever possible to power the
plasma or welding source and the machine. Do not plug them into the same outlet box.
6) High frequency noise may enter the machine through the plasma or welding supply remote contactor leads. Some plasma and welding sources can produce
noise spikes of up to several thousand volts. These sources are not compatible
with automated cutting and welding equipment. It is recommended that the remote
contactor leads on these plasma or welding sources not be connected to the machine. An alternate solution is to purchase a separate remote contactor isolation box.

INTRODUCTION:
The Programmable Stiffener Welder mechanizes two wire feeders to weld various types of stiffeners
on one or both sides simultaneously. The unit features independent wire feeder controls for voltage,
wire feed speed, cold wire jog and gas purge. When intermittent stitch welding is required the unit
feature programmable control of weld length and travel speed, skip length, reverse drive crater ll, preweld and post-weld gas purge times. Please see the Technical Data information in this manual for unit
capacities.
SETUP & OPERATION:
(Refer to the Controls Sections pg. 6, 7 and Major Components section pg. 10 in this manual.)
1. Center the unit over the work piece. Connect welding cables and wire feeder control cables for each
feeder to the welding power sources. Connect the welding gas hoses to each Flow Meter/Valve
Assembly. Plug the unit into an available 110 VAC 50/60 Hz power source.
2. Turn power “ON” to both welding power sources. Turn power “ON” to the control panel by toggling
the “ON/OFF” switch on the upper rear right hand side of the control box to the “ON” position.
Ensure both welding torches are active by toggling the Weld Contactor Switches located on each
side of the control box to the “ON” position.
NOTE: Ensure that the Emergency Stop Switch located on the top of the control box is in the released
position. If the Emergency Stop Switch remains depressed, no input power will be supplied to the
unit.
3. Adjust the Capture Wheel Assemblies so that they contact the side of the work. Swing the Drive
Unit into position against the work piece and engage the Drive Latch and tighten to ensure
constant pressure on the work piece between the Drive Assembly, Work Piece and Capture Wheel
Assemblies.
NOTE: Move the unit forward and reverse using the Travel Manual Jog switch located on the front
lower left of the control box to ensure proper tension has been applied by the Drive Latch to move the
unit smoothly along the work piece.
4. Align the left and right Corner Followers and welding guns for the desired weld placement. The Corner Followers can be adjusted up, down, in and out to achieve the placement you desire. Coarse torch angle adjustment should be made with the positioning of the corner followers. The Corner Followers are also equipped with a gun angle adjustment knob to achieve the desired torch
angle and correct position of the welding wire with respect to the joint. Purge the shield gas to each
welding gun by pressing the Shield Gas Purge button located on the left and right sides of
the control panel for each Flow Meter/Valve Assembly.
5. Set all welding parameters. Wire feeder wire speed and voltage are set independently from each
other utilizing the Lincoln LN-10 Controller. All other welding parameters are set using the soft
touch Programming Center. Please refer to the controls section of the manual.
6. When you are ready to begin your weld cycle press the Weld Cycle Start button located on the
control panel below the soft touch Programming Center. To stop the weld cycle press the Weld
Cycle Stop button.
NOTE: In case of emergency, press the Emergency Stop switch located on the top of the control box
to kill all power to the unit including the weld cycle. Once the Emergency Stop switch is returned to the
released position you will need to press the Cycle Start button to resume your cycle.

CONTROLS (PROGRAMMING CENTER):
DIGITAL DISPLAY: Visual display to supply welding motion information to operator.
SHIELDING GAS PREFLOW: Programmable time to allow the ow of shielding gas prior to striking
the arc.
TRAVEL SPEED: Speed at which the unit moves during welding.
WELD LENGTH: Distance the unit travels forward while welding in Skip mode.
BACKUP DISTANCE: Distance the unit travels in reverse after completed weld length.
SHIELDING GAS POSTFLOW: Programmable time to allow the ow of shielding gas after the arc
has extinguished.
SKIP LENGTH: Distance between welds. (Must include backup distance).
INCREASE VALUE: Pressing this button increases the value shown in the digital display.
DECREASE VALUE: Pressing this button decreases the value shown in the digital display.
FUNCTION SELECT: Allows the user to cycle through the welding programming functions.
SKIP/CONTINUOUS MODE SELECT: Allows the user to select skip mode or continuous mode for
the welding operation.
SKIP WELD INDICATOR LIGHT: When illuminated the machine will weld in skip mode.
CONTINUOUS WELD INDICATOR LIGHT: When illuminated the machine will weld in continuous
mode.
Note: It is possible to change from Continuous to Skip welding “on-the-y”. To change modes, press
the Continuous/Skip Select button. If the machine is making a continuous weld, the backup function
and postow will occur immediately. The machine will move the programmed skip distance and
proceed to make the programmed skip welds. If the machine is making a skip weld, the machine will
continue to weld until the Continuous/Skip Select button or the Stop button is pressed.
PUDDLE DELAY:
There are two internal settings in the Control Module that do not appear in the normal setting
selection on the control panel keypad/display. These are time delays at weld start and stop, when
the wire feed is on but travel is stopped, in order to allow for puddle buildup.
To set the time delays:
1. Power off, (power switch on back of control box); hold Cycle Stop button in, and turn power
on. Release Stop button. LED No.1 and 3 should light; and the display shows the start puddle
build time.
2. Adjust delay time as required using UP and DOWN arrow buttons.
3. Briey push Function Select (cycle settings) button. LED No. 3 and 5 should light, and display
shows the end crater ll time.
4. Adjust delay time as required.
5. Push Function Select button again, then power off.
6. Power on to operate machine as usual, now with new settings in place.
