Specifications
Using this Lincoln Magnum welding gun is quite straightforward. First, make sure you've chosen the right cable length and gun tube angle according to your needs. Select the appropriate wire diameter (3/32 - .120 in. or 2.4 - 3.0 mm) for your welding job. When using the gun, press the heavy - duty trigger switch to start the welding process. The switch is designed to provide a good electrical connection, so just give it a firm press. For hard - to - reach welds, you can use the alternate gun tubes. Now, for the important stuff. Always follow the NEMA specification EW3 since the gun has a 60% duty cycle. This means don't use it continuously for too long; give it breaks to avoid overheating. Also, when handling the cable, be gentle even though it has a reinforced rubber jacket. To maintain the gun, clean it regularly. Wipe off any debris or welding spatter after each use. Check the trigger switch for any signs of wear and tear. If you notice any problems, replace the parts as needed. With proper use and maintenance, this welding gun will serve you well for a long time.
