OPERA TOR’S MANUAL Safety Depends on You Lincoln arc welding and cutting equipment is designed and built with safety in mind. However, your overall safety can be increased by proper installation .
FOR ENGINE powered equipment. 1.a. Turn the engine off before troubleshooting and maintenance work unless the maintenance work requires it to be running. ____________________________________________________ 1.b. Operate engines in open, well-ventilated areas or vent the engine exhaust fumes outdoors.
ii SAFETY ii ARC RA YS can burn. 4.a. Use a shield with the proper filter and cover plates to protect your eyes from sparks and the rays of the arc when welding or observing open arc welding. Headshield and filter lens should conform to ANSI Z87. I standards.
FOR ELECTRICALL Y powered equipment. 8.a. Turn off input power using the disconnect switch at the fuse box before working on the equipment. 8.b. Install equipment in accordance with the U.S. National Electrical Code, all local codes and the manufacturer s recommendations.

B-2 OPERA TION B-2 LIMIT A TIONS • The POWER-ARC 5500 is not recommended for any processes besides those that are normally per- formed using stick welding (SMAW) procedures.
B-3 OPERA TION B-3 POWER-ARC 5500 4. WELD OUTPUT TERMINAL (TO WORK) WITH 1/2 - 13 FLANGE NUT: Provides the connection point for either the electrode holder or the work cable. (Because the POWER-ARC 5500 is an AC output machine, either output terminal can be used for either cable.
4. Pull the cord rapidly. 5 . If the engine does not start, open the choke slightly and pull the starter cord rapidly again. When the engine starts, gradually open the choke to the “RUN” position. To open the choke fully requires an engine warm-up period of several seconds to several minutes, depending on the temperature.

Stick welding is probably the most familiar welding process known. A coated ELECTRODE, the weld rod, is clamped into an ELECTRODE HOLDER, an insulat- ed clamping device, which in turn connects to the ELECTRODE CABLE, a heavy wire. The WORK, the metal piece to be welded, is connected to the WORK CABLE, a heavy wire which contains the WORK CLAMP.
B-9 OPERA TION B-9 POWER-ARC 5500 No one can learn to weld simply by reading about it. Skill comes only with practice. The following pages will help the inexperienced welder understand welding and develop his skill. For more detailed information, order a copy of the book “New Lessons in Arc Welding.
B-10 OPERA TION B-10 POWER-ARC 5500 The function of the covered electrode is much more than simply to carry current to the arc. The electrode is composed of a core metal wire around which has been extruded and baked a chemical covering. The core wire melts into the arc and tiny droplets of molten metal shoot across the arc into the molten pool.
B-1 1 OPERA TION B-1 1 POWER-ARC 5500 PRACTICE The best way of getting practice in the four skills that enable you to maintain: 1. Correct Welding Position. 2. Correct Way to Strike An Arc. 3. Correct Arc Length. 4. Correct Welding Speed. is to spend a little more time on the following exercise.
B-12 OPERA TION B-12 POWER-ARC 5500 Now weld the two plates together. Weld from left to right (if right-handed). Point the electrode down in he gap between the two plates, keeping the electrodes slightly tilted in the direction of travel. Watch the molten metal to be sure it distributes itself evenly on both edges and in between the plates.
B-13 OPERA TION B-13 POWER-ARC 5500 Vertical-Up Welding The problem, when welding vertical-up, is to put the molten metal where it is wanted and make it stay there. If too much molten metal is deposited, gravity will pull it downwards and make it “drip”.
B-14 OPERA TION B-14 POWER-ARC 5500 Overhead Welding Various techniques are used for overhead welding. However, in the interest of simplicity for the inexperi- enced welder, the following technique will probably take care of his needs for overhead welding: 1.
B-15 OPERA TION B-15 POWER-ARC 5500 4. The bead should be put on with a weaving motion, and it should be 1/2-3/4” (12.7-19.0mm) wide. Do not let the arc blow over the edge, as that will dull the edge. (See drawing below.) 5. Use the back-stepping method.
B-16 OPERA TION B-16 POWER-ARC 5500 High-Speed Group (AWS E6013) This group includes electrodes which have a moder- ately forceful arc and deposit rates between those of the out-of-position and high-deposit electrodes.
