The Above For Gasoline Engines

i

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.

____________________________________________________

1.c. Do not add the fuel near an open flame
welding arc or when the engine is running.
Stop the engine and allow it to cool before
refueling to prevent spilled fuel from vaporiz­ing on contact with hot engine parts and
igniting. Do not spill fuel when filling tank. If
fuel is spilled, wipe it up and do not start
engine until fumes have been eliminated.

____________________________________________________

1.d. Keep all equipment safety guards, covers and devices in
position and in good repair.Keep hands, hair, clothing and
tools away from V-belts, gears, fans and all other moving
parts when starting, operating or repairing equipment.

____________________________________________________

1.e. In some cases it may be necessary to remove safety

guards to perform required maintenance. Remove
guards only when necessary and replace them when the
maintenance requiring their removal is complete.
Always use the greatest care when working near moving
parts.

___________________________________________________

1.f. Do not put your hands near the engine fan.
Do not attempt to override the governor or
idler by pushing on the throttle control rods
while the engine is running.

1.h. To avoid scalding, do not remove the
radiator pressure cap when the engine is
hot.

ELECTRIC AND
MAGNETIC FIELDS
may be dangerous

2.a. Electric current flowing through any conductor causes
localized Electric and Magnetic Fields (EMF). Welding
current creates EMF fields around welding cables and
welding machines

2.b. EMF fields may interfere with some pacemakers, and
welders having a pacemaker should consult their physician
before welding.

2.c. Exposure to EMF fields in welding may have other health
effects which are now not known.

2.d. All welders should use the following procedures in order to
minimize exposure to EMF fields from the welding circuit:

2.d.1.

Route the electrode and work cables together - Secure
them with tape when possible.

2.d.2. Never coil the electrode lead around your body.

2.d.3. Do not place your body between the electrode and

work cables. If the electrode cable is on your right
side, the work cable should also be on your right side.

___________________________________________________

1.g. To prevent accidentally starting gasoline engines while
turning the engine or welding generator during maintenance
work, disconnect the spark plug wires, distributor cap or
magneto wire as appropriate.

2.d.4. Connect the work cable to the workpiece as close as
possible to the area being welded.

2.d.5. Do not work next to welding power source.

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.
Make certain the insulation is large enough to cover your full
area of physical contact with work and ground.

In addition to the normal safety precautions, if welding

con ditions (in damp locations o r while wearing wet
clothing; on metal structures such as floors, gratings or
scaffolds; when in cramped positions such as sitting,
kneeling or lying, if there is a high risk of unavoidable or
accidental contact with the workpiece or ground) use
the following equipment:

• Semiautomatic DC Constant Voltage (Wire) Welder.

• DC Manual (Stick) Welder.

• AC Welder with Reduced Voltage Control.

3.c. In semiautomatic or automatic wire welding, the electrode,
elect rode reel, weldin g head, nozzle or semiau tomatic
welding gun are also electrically “hot”.

3.d. Always be sure the work cable makes a good electrical
connection with the metal being welded. The connection
should be as close as possible to the area being welded.

3.e. Ground the work or metal to be welded to a good electrical
(earth) ground.

3.f.

Maintain the electrode holder, work clamp, welding cable and
welding machine in good, safe operating condition. Replace
damaged insulation.

3.g. Never dip the electrode in water for cooling.

3.h. Never simultan eo usly t ou ch el ec tricall y “hot” part s of
electrode holders connected to two welders because voltage
between the two can be the total of the open circuit voltage
of both welders.

3.i. When working above floor level, use a safety belt to protect
yourself from a fall should you get a shock.

3.j. Also see Items 6.c. and 8.

ARC RAYS can burn.

4.a. Use a shield with the proper filter and cover
plates to protect your eyes from sparks and
the rays of the arc when welding or observing
open arc welding. Headshield and filter lens
should conform to ANSI Z87. I standards.

4.b. Use suitable clothing made from durable flame-resistant
material to protect your skin and that of your helpers from
the arc rays.

4.c. Protect other nearby personnel with suitable, non-flammable
screening and/or warn them not to watch the arc nor expose
themselves to the arc rays or to hot spatter or metal.

FUMES AND GASES
can be dangerous.

5.a. Weldin g may produce fumes and gases
hazardous to health. Avoid breathing these
fumes and gases. When weld in g, keep
your head out of the fume. Use enough
ventilation and/or exhaust at the arc to keep

fumes and gases away from the breathing zone. When

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ

Pour votre propre protection lire et observer toutes les instructions
et les précautions de sûreté specifiques qui parraissent dans ce
manuel aussi bien que les précautions de sûreté générales suiv­antes:

Sûreté Pour Soudage A L’Arc

1. Protegez-vous contre la secousse électrique:

a. Les circuits à l’électrode et à la piéce sont sous tension

quand la machine à souder est en marche. Eviter toujours
tout contact entre les parties sous tension et la peau nue
ou les vétements mouillés. Porter des gants secs et sans
trous pour isoler les mains.

b. Faire trés attention de bien s’isoler de la masse quand on

soude dans des endroits humides, ou sur un plancher
metallique ou des grilles metalliques, principalement dans
les positions assis ou couché pour lesquelles une grande
partie du corps peut être en contact avec la masse.

c. Maintenir le porte-électrode, la pince de masse, le câble

de soudage et la machine à souder en bon et sûr état
defonctionnement.

d.Ne jamais plonger le porte-électrode dans l’eau pour le

refroidir.

e. Ne jamais toucher simultanément les parties sous tension

des porte-électrodes connectés à deux machines à souder
parce que la tension entre les deux pinces peut être le
total de la tension à vide des deux machines.

f. Si on utilise la machine à souder comme une source de

courant pour soudage semi-automatique, ces precautions
pour le porte-électrode s’applicuent aussi au pistolet de
soudage.

2. Dans le cas de travail au dessus du niveau du sol, se protéger
contre les chutes dans le cas ou on recoit un choc. Ne jamais
enrouler le câble-électrode autour de n’importe quelle partie
du corps.

3. Un coup d’arc peut être plus sévère qu’un coup de soliel,
donc:

a. Utiliser un bon masque avec un verre filtrant approprié

ainsi qu’un verre blanc afin de se protéger les yeux du ray­onnement de l’arc et des projections quand on soude ou
quand on regarde l’arc.

b. Porter des vêtements convenables afin de protéger la

peau de soudeur et des aides contre le rayonnement de
l‘arc.

c. Protéger l’autre personnel travaillant à proximité au

soudage à l’aide d’écrans appropriés et non-inflammables.

4. Des gouttes de laitier en fusion sont émises de l’arc de
soudage. Se protéger avec des vêtements de protection libres
de l’huile, tels que les gants en cuir, chemise épaisse, pan­talons sans revers, et chaussures montantes.

5. Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité dans la zone de
soudage. Utiliser des lunettes avec écrans lateraux dans les
zones où l’on pique le laitier.

6. Eloigner les matériaux inflammables ou les recouvrir afin de
prévenir tout risque d’incendie dû aux étincelles.

7. Quand on ne soude pas, poser la pince à une endroit isolé de
la masse. Un court-circuit accidental peut provoquer un
échauffement et un risque d’incendie.

8. S’assurer que la masse est connectée le plus prés possible
de la zone de travail qu’il est pratique de le faire. Si on place
la masse sur la charpente de la construction ou d’autres
endroits éloignés de la zone de travail, on augmente le risque
de voir passer le courant de soudage par les chaines de lev­age, câbles de grue, ou autres circuits. Cela peut provoquer
des risques d’incendie ou d’echauffement des chaines et des
câbles jusqu’à ce qu’ils se rompent.

9. Assurer une ventilation suffisante dans la zone de soudage.
Ceci est particuliérement important pour le soudage de tôles
galvanisées plombées, ou cadmiées ou tout autre métal qui
produit des fumeés toxiques.

10. Ne pas souder en présence de vapeurs de chlore provenant
d’opérations de dégraissage, nettoyage ou pistolage. La
chaleur ou les rayons de l’arc peuvent réagir avec les vapeurs
du solvant pour produire du phosgéne (gas fortement toxique)
ou autres produits irritants.

11. Pour obtenir de plus amples renseignements sur la sûreté,
voir le code “Code for safety in welding and cutting” CSA
Standard W 117.2-1974.

PRÉCAUTIONS DE SÛRETÉ POUR
LES MACHINES À SOUDER À
TRANSFORMATEUR ET À
REDRESSEUR

1. Relier à la terre le chassis du poste conformement au code de
l’électricité et aux recommendations du fabricant. Le dispositif
de montage ou la piece à souder doit être branché à une
bonne mise à la terre.

2. Autant que possible, I’installation et l’entretien du poste seront
effectués par un électricien qualifié.

3. Avant de faires des travaux à l’interieur de poste, la debranch­er à l’interrupteur à la boite de fusibles.

4. Garder tous les couvercles et dispositifs de sûreté à leur
place.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

A-1

PRODUCT PURPOSE

The CV Adapter can be connected to certain variable
voltage water-cooled engine welders to provide con­stant voltage output recommended for welding with
.068” and .072” NR-232, .068” and 5/64 NR-211, 5/64”
NS-3M, Innershield electrodes within the current rating
of the machine used. The unit can also be used for
some other open arc processes depending on the
application and process to be used. With the CV
Adapter installed, the welder can be easily set to oper­ate in either the CV mode or the standard VV mode.

The LN23P wire feeder is recommended for
Innershield welding with the CV Adapter and K2379-1
Interface Kit (Required).

The voltage control range of the CV Adapter is 15 to
35 volts at the welder current rating. The table gives a
summary of CV outputs when the Adapter is connect­ed.

Comments

Polarity switch
is disconnected.

The CV Adapter consists of a capacitor bank, an elec­tronic control circuit and switches. The capacitors
modify the dynamic output characteristics to make the
welder suitable for Innershield welding, and the elec­tronic circuit controls the field current to maintain a
constant voltage output. Two switches are used to
change from CV mode to VV mode. The switches are
interlocked to insure that the capacitors are discon­nected before the Adapter can be switched to the VV
mode.

An output voltage remote control switch and connec­tion receptacle is located on the side of the control
box.
This feature enables voltage control at the CV Adapter
or at the LN-23P (K2379-1 Interface Kit is required).

All the components are installed in a control box that
attaches to the welder gas tank rail with an adapter
plate. A control cable is used to connect the CV
Adapter to the welder control circuit and the output
terminals. A power cable is used to connect the CV
output terminal of the Adapter to the welder negative
brushholder. This connection by-passes the series
field for CV operation.

The CV Adapter will fit any of the following engine
welders:

• SAE 400 (K1278-5, -6, -7, -8, -9, -10)

• SAE 400 WELD’ N AIR (K1506-1)

• SAE 500 (K1278-11, -12)

Estimated time for field installation of the CV Adapter
to welder is 2 to 3 hours.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

OPERATION

B-1

CAUTION

DO NOT OPERATE SWITCHES ON CV ADAPTER
WHILE WELDING.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

VV OR CV WELDING

WARNING

ANY LN-23P WIRE FEEDER OR CABLES
ATTACHED TO CV ADAPTER OUTPUT TERMINAL
AND STANDARD OUTPUT TERMINALS ARE
ALWAYS ENERGIZED WHEN ENGINE IS RUNNING
REGARDLESS OF MODE SWITCH POSITION.
STORE LN-23P GUN OR ELECTRODE HOLDER
SO THEY DO NOT CONTACT WORK WHEN NOT
WELDING.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

VV STICK WELDING

Place both mode switches on the CV Adapter to VV
Stick position. For units with remote control, place the
Remote Control Switch in the desired position.

NOTE: THE UPPER SWITCH MUST IN VV POSI­TION BEFORE THE LOWER SWITCH CAN BE
PLACED IN VV POSITION. An interlocking handle
prevents operation of the switches in the wrong
sequence.

Connect the welding cables to the standard output ter­minals of the engine welder and use the standard con­trols to set the welding current. On the SAE-400, SAE­500 and SAE-400 WELD’N AIR engine welders, the
polarity switch is disconnected so the standard “To
Work” terminal that has been relabeled “Positive” is
always positive, and the standard “Electrode” terminal
that has been relabeled “Negative” is always negative.

CV INNERSHIELD WELDING

Place both switches in CV Innershield position.
NOTE: THE LOWER SWITCH MUST BE IN THE

“CV” POSITION BEFORE THE UPPER SWITCH
CAN BE PLACED IN “CV” POSITION. An interlocking
handle prevents operation of the switches in the
wrong sequence. The “Job Selector” must be at

maximum.

For electrode negative Innershield welding, connect
the electrode lead of an LN-23P wire feeder to the
output terminal on the CV Adapter and connect the
work to the “To Work” standard SAE output terminal
that is relabeled “Positive”.

The standard SAE “Electrode” output terminal that is

relabeled “Negative” is not used for CV welding.

The output voltage is set in one of two ways. With the
CV Adapter Remote Control switch set in the “LOCAL”
position, the voltage is controlled with the control dial
on the CV Adapter. With the CV Adapter switch set in
“REMOTE” position, the voltage is controlled at the
LN-23P. Set the SAE “Current Control” to the 9
o’clock position for optimum welding characteristics
with innershield electrodes.
Changing the “Current Control” affects arc character­istics.

For proper CV Adapter operation, the “Job Selector”
must be at maximum.
