LN-7 and LN-7 GMA

Semiautomatic Constant Speed Wire Feeders

The LN-7 and LN-7 GMA are semiautomatic constant speed wire feeders that can be

used with a variety of Lincoln engine drives, C or CV power sources in a shop or field

environment. Both models and a Ready-Pak™ package feature Lincoln's unique drive roll

design, which provides positive feeding, quick reloading and durability for long life.

Controlled wire feed speed during starting provides clean, positive starts and minimizes

stubbing, skipping and spatter. For dependable operation and precise wire feeding in a

rugged package, choose the LN-7 or LN-7 GMA.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Recommended General Options

• The LN-7 feeds up to 3/32” (2.4mm) solid and 7/64” (2.8mm)

flu -cored wires, from 50-500 inches per minute (1.3-12.7m/min)

wire feed speed.

• The LN-7 GMA feeds up to 1/16” (1.6mm) solid and 5/64”

(2.0mm) flu -cored wires, from 75-700 inches per minute

(1.9-17.8 m/min) wire feed speed.

• Unique drive roll design provides positive feeding and quick

reloading by simply starting wire into guide tube. The drive

rolls and guide tubes are designed for long life and precise

wire feeding.

• Four-roll wire drive system available for additional wire feed-

ing force and easier feeding of soft wires (LN-7 GMA model

only).

• Completely enclosed case protects the heavy duty wire drive

mechanism from damage, but allows easy access to drive

rolls.

• Control circuit features “cold electrode” when the gun trigger

is released for an added measure of safety.

• Low voltage (24 volts) gun trigger circuit.

• Dynamic braking system stops wire feed motor quickly to

minimize crater sticking problems.

• Three-year warranty on parts and labor.
