1 Safety Symbol Definitions
DANGER! Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, will result in death or serious injury. The pos-
sible hazards are shown in the adjoining symbols or
explained in the text.
Beware of electric shock from wiring. Disconnect input
power before working inside machine. Reinstall all pan-
els and covers.
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury. The possible ha-
zards are shown in the adjoining symbols or explained in
the text.
Breathing welding fumes and gases can harm your
health. Welding requires good ventilation. If ventilation is
impossible, such as when welding in a confined space,
use an air-supplied respirator.
NOTICE
Indicates statements not related to personal injury.
Indicates special instructions.
Arc rays can burn eyes and skin wear a welding hel-
met with correct filter, and cover exposed skin with non-
flammable clothing.
Wear safety glasses with side shields. Have only trained and qualified persons install, operate,
or service this unit. Call your distributor if you do not
understand the directions. For WELDING SAFETY and
EMF information, read owner’s manual(s).
Welding sparks can cause fire or explosion. Move flam-
mables away. Do not weld on closed tanks or barrels
they can explode. Clean tanks or barrels properly.
Static electricity can damage parts on circuit boards. Put
on grounded wrist strap before touching board.

802 738
! Turn Off welding power
source.
1 Welding Power Source
2 Paralleling Controller
Controller can be mounted on top
or on right side of welding power
source.
To secure controller, loosen sheet
metal screw at desired location.
Place controller center mounting
hole over screw as shown. Tighten
screw.

5 Welding Power Source Output Connections (For Two Power Sources)
802 740
! Turn Off welding power sources
and disconnect input power.
! Do not use different polarities at
the same time on a common
workpiece when more than one
welding power source is used.
1 Main Welding Power Source
2 Paralleling Controller
3 Second Welding Power Source
4 Negative Weld Output Cables
5 Paralleled Negative Weld Output
Cable
6 Positive Weld Output Cables
7 Paralleled Positive Weld Output
Cable
. Be sure paralleled weld cables are
connected postive-to-positve and
negative-to-negative.
Paralleled weld output cables need to
be sized for the largest amount of weld
output available from the paralleled
welding power sources. See Section 10

6 Connecting Control Cords To Welding Power Sources (For Two Power Sources)
802 739
! Turn Off welding power sources
and disconnect input power.
Make connections as shown.
1 Main Welding Power Source
2 Paralleling Controller
3 Interconnecting Cable And 14-Pin
Plug PLG4
This is the larger diameter of the two inter-
connecting cables.
4 Second Welding Power Source
5 Interconnecting Cable And 14-Pin
Plug PLG5
6 Remote 14-Pin Receptacle
. The main welding power source can
be in the CC or CV mode, depending
on the particular application. The sec-
ond welding power source must be in
the CC mode since it will be duplicat-
ing the current output by the main
power source.
. Second welding power source must
have the Output switch set to Remote,
the Control switch set to Remote and
the A/V adjust knob set to maximum.
. Set DIP switch S1 for second welding
power source (see Section 3).
7 Cord From Remote Control Device
Connect plug from remote control device
to receptacle as follows: align keyway, in-
sert plug, and tighten threaded collar.
See Section 9 for socket information if re-
mote control device plug does not match
receptacle.

7 Connecting Control Cords To Welding Power Sources (For Three Power Sources)
Ref. 803 957-A
! Turn Off welding power
sources and disconnect input
power.
! Do not use different polarities
at the same time on a common
workpiece when more than one
welding power source is used.
. Welding power source #1 can be
in the CC or CV mode, depending
on the particular application. The
other welding power sources
must be in CC mode since they
will be duplicating the current out-
put of welding power source #1.
. Welding power sources #2 and
#3 must have the Output switch
set to Remote, the Control switch
set to Remote, and the A/V Adjust
knob set to maximum.
. Be sure paralleled weld cables
are connected positive-to -posi-
tive and negative-to-negative.

! Turn Off welding power
sources.
! Do not use different polarities
at the same time on a common
workpiece when more than one
welding power source is used.
. Welding power source #1 can be
in the CC or CV mode, depending
on the particular application. The
other welding power sources
must be in CC mode since they
will be duplicating the current out-
put of welding power source #1.
. Welding power sources #2, #3
and #4 must have the Output
switch set to Remote, the Control
switch set to Remote, and the A/V
Adjust knob set to maximum.
. Be sure paralleled weld cables
are connected positive-to -posi-
tive and negative-to-negative.
