Air cooled standard

•  C.V. or C.C. Power Source of sufficient capacity for your needs.
•  Regulated gas supply and hoses.
•  Properly sized power leads from power source to wire feeder and 

ground.

gun. The 

gun and Power Pin ends of the cable are stripped to the copper strands and 

wrapped with a copper strip. A setscrew holds the cable securely in the gun 
body and in the Power Manifold with torque requirements of 55-60 in-lb.
Conduit

The Python

®  

Lincoln Compatible™ comes standard with a poly-lined conduit, 

for feeding aluminum wire.  The longer fitting with a shallow groove is used 

on the gun end.  A set screw located on top of the gun handle secures the 

conduit in place. The cabinet end of the conduit is secured into the Power Pin 

connector with a set screw.
Gas Hose

The gas hose is pushed over a barbed fitting on the gun body and secured 

with the hose retainer. On the Power Manifold the hose has a crimped fitting 

screwed into the Power Manifold.
electric Cable

A multi-conductor control cable is used on the Python

.  

The gun end of the cable is secured with a cable clamp and the wires are 

connected to the potentiometer, the micro switch, the motor and the gun 

body mechanically.  Slack is left in the electric cable as it exits the back of the 

gun to prevent cable and/or wire breakage.  The cabinet end of the control 

cable uses a 7-Pin, Amphenol connector.

The Python

gun maintains a constant, steady, uniform 

wire feed speed, regardless of curved or looped wire conduit.  The constant 

push exerted by the slave motor in the cabinet, combined with the pull of 

the gun motor, causes the wire to literally float friction-free through the wire 

conduit.  The 24VDC gun motor is controlled by a three and three-quarter (3 

3/4) turn potentiometer in the gun handle.
