SOFT for MIG - CRISP for Innershield. • Set the “IDLE” switch to the “HIGH” position. If you are using an LN-23P with the K350-1 adapter kit, the electrode is not energized until the gun trigger is closed. CONNECTION OF AN NA-3 AUTOMATIC WELDING SYSTEM TO THE COMMANDER 500 For connection diagrams and instructions for connecting an NA-3 Welding System to the Commander 500, refer to the NA-3 Welding System instruction manual. The connection diagram for the LN-8 can be used for connecting the NA-3. CONNECTION OF AN LN-742 TO THE COMMANDER 500 • Shut the welder off. • Connect the LN-742 per instructions on the appropriate connection diagram in the DIAGRAMS section. • Set the “WIRE FEEDER VOLTMETER” switch to either “+” or “-” as required by the electrode being used. • Set the “SELECTOR” switch to the “CV-WIRE” position. • Adjust the “ARC CONTROL” knob to desired Crispness. SOFT for MIG and CRISP for Innershield. • Set the “WELDING TERMINALS” switch to the “REMOTELY CONTROLLED” position. • Set the “IDLE” switch to the “AUTO” position. When not welding, the Commander 500 engine will be at the low idle speed.

The machine uses a brush type alternating current generator for DC multi-purpose welding and for 120/240 VAC auxiliary standby power. The welding control system uses state of the art Chopper Technology. The Commander 500 is not recommended for pipe thawing. The generator has a single sealed bearing for maintenance free service. The rotor is a copper wound design with two slip rings and brushes. The stator is wound entirely with heavy gauge copper wire and insulated with NEMA class F insulation material. The stator is then impregnated with three layers of high quality varnish. After the stator is assembled using tie bars, the entire assembly covered with an environmentally protective coating. These measures insure trouble-free operation in the harshest environments. The fuel tank is made from high density polyethylene and holds 25 gallons of diesel fuel. This will provide enough fuel to run for more than 12 hours at full load. The Deutz F3L-912 engine is equipped with a standard, heavy duty, combination fuel filter/water separator element. RECOMMENDED APPLICATIONS WELDER The Commander 500 provides excellent constant current DC welding output for stick (SMAW) and TIG welding. The Commander 500 also provides excellent constant voltage DC welding output for MIG (GMAW) and Innershield (FCAW) welding. GENERATOR The Commander 500 provides smooth 120/240 VAC output for auxiliary power and emergency standby power. •Keep away from moving parts Only qualified personnel should operate this equipment. ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Always operate the welder with the hinged door closed and the side panels in place as these provide maximum protection from moving parts and insure proper cooling air flow. DESIGN FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES K1639-2 Commander 500 Deluxe Model Features For Welding: • Excellent DC multi-purpose welding for stick, MIG, TIG, cored wire and arc gouging applications. • 30 to 500 amps output in five slope controlled ranges for out-of position and pipe electrodes, one constant current output range for general purpose welding, one constant voltage range for MIG wire and cored wire welding and one 20-250 amp range for “Touch Start” TIG welding. • 100% duty cycle at 500 amps output and 50% duty cycle at 575 amps output. COMMANDER 500 DEE3EK ELECTRIC I B-2 OPERATION B-2 • Dual 3-digit output meters are provided (optional on K1639-1) for presetting the weld amperage or voltage and displaying the actual amperage and voltage during welding. The meters use superbrite L.E.D.'s for improved readability in full sunlight. LOOK-BACK FEATURE: After welding has stopped, both displays will remain on for 7 seconds with the last current and voltage value displayed. During this time, the left-most decimal point in each display will be FLASHING. • Standard remote control capability with 14 pin and 6 pin connectors for easy connection of Lincoln remote contro...
