Frequently Asked Questions - LN-23P LINCOLN ELECTRIC
How do I set the correct wire tension on the LN-23P?
Adjust the spring-loaded tension knob on the drive roll. Start with light tension and increase until the wire feeds smoothly without slipping. Too much tension can flatten the wire.
What wire sizes does the LN-23P support?
It accepts solid wire from 0.6 mm to 1.6 mm (0.023-0.062 in) and flux-cored wire of similar diameters. Use the correct drive roll groove for each size.
How do I change the drive rolls?
Open the latch, remove the old rolls by sliding them off the shafts. Install new rolls matching your wire size, then close the latch ensuring proper engagement.
Why is my wire feeding erratically?
Common causes: incorrect tension, dirty feed rolls, worn liner, or damaged wire. Check the liner for kinks, clean rolls with a wire brush, and adjust tension.
What gas pressure is needed for MIG welding with this feeder?
For most applications, set the flowmeter to 10-15 L/min (20-25 cfh). Adjust based on shielding gas type and welding conditions.
Can I use the LN-23P with any welding power source?
It requires a 24 VAC control power from a CV welding power source. It is compatible with most Lincoln Electric CV machines and many other brands.
How do I perform a gas purge?
Press and hold the Gas Purge button on the control panel. This will energize the gas solenoid to flow gas without triggering the welding output.
What is the purpose of the Cold Inch function?
Cold Inch (or Inch) advances the wire without energizing the welding circuit. It is used to thread the wire up to the contact tip or to check wire alignment.
How often should I replace the contact tip?
Replace it when the bore becomes elongated or worn, causing poor electrical contact or erratic arc. Typically every few hours of heavy use.
Does the LN-23P have overheat protection?
Yes, it includes thermal overload protection that shuts down the feeder if it overheats. Allow it to cool before restarting; check for obstructions.
