feeder equipped with a K489 Series FastMate Adapter Kit.To
install an optional K489 Series kit see the instructions provided
with the kit.

are appropriate for the electrode size being used. When using
a Fast-Mate Adapter Kit, be certain the adapter guide tube is
also properly sized.
b. Align and fully engage the brass connector end of the gun
cable into the mating connector on the outgoing side of the
feeder wire drive. Secure the cable connection by snuggling

and gas nozzle installed. If you choose to change the
contact tip or nozzle, see the instructions below.
a. Choose the correct size contact tip for the electrode being
used (wire size is stenciled on the side of the contact tip) and
screw it snugly into the gas diffuser.
b. Be sure the nozzle insulator isfullyscrewed onto the diffuser
and does not block the gas holes in the diffuser.
c. Slip the appropriate gas nozzle onto the nozzle insulator.
Either a
