WELDING CABLE 

 

The needed cable assembly for the LWF

TM

-4GS wire feeder includes control cable, welding cable and 

gas hose. The lengths are made based on to the specific requirements from end users. The wire feeder 
has a stud being used to connect the welding cable.   
 
For self-shielded wire, the welding cable should be bolted to either the 

“+” or “-“output stud on power 

source.  
 
For Gas shielded wire, the power cable should be bolted to “+” output stud on power source. 

 

 

GAS HOSE 

 

The LWF

TM

-4GS interconnection cable assembly has a gas hose which connects to the rear panel on 

the wire feeder. The other end of the hose connects to gas flow regulator. Shielding gas such as CO2, 
Ar, and blend gas can be used and the gas pressure cannot be more than 0.7 MPa.  

 

 

CONTROL CABLE 

 

The control cable is included in the interconnection cable assembly. When it is used with DURAWELD & 
OPTIMARC, the 6-pin connector on the control cable will be linked to the rear panel of the wire feeder 
and 6-pin connector on the power source. 

 

 

OPTION EXTENSION CABLES 

 

The LWF

TM

-4GS wire feeder can also be used with extension welding cable/ control cable/ gas hose. 

      

Note

: Fix the hose and cables into the holding bracket on the rear of the feeder after your connection.

 

 

 

WELDING GUN 

 

Insert the gun connector to the ‘Euro Connector’ on the front panel of the wire feeder and screw the 
hand nut up tightly.
