WARNING ARC WELDING can be hazardous. PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS FROM POSSIBLE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. PACEMAKER WEARERS SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR DOCTOR BEFORE OPERATING. Read and understand the following safety highlights. For additional safety information it is strongly recommended that you purchase a copy of “Safety in Welding & Cutting - ANSI Standard Z49.1” from the American Welding Society, P.O. Box 351040, Miami, Florida 33135 or CSA Standard W117.2-1974.
4.f. Sparks and spatter are thrown from the welding arc. Wear oil free protective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes and a cap over your hair. Wear ear plugs when welding out of position or in confined places. Always wear safety glasses with side shields when in a welding area. 7.c.Do not add the fuel near an open flame welding arc or when the engine is running.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION The DC-650 PRO is a multiprocess DC power source designed for the GMAW (MIG), FCAW, SMAW (Stick), and SAW (Sub-Arc) processes, with arc gouging capability as well. It features an international industrial rating of 700 amps, 44 volts at 100% duty cycle. It also has a dual rating of 600 amps, 44 volts at 100% duty cycle, in a 60°C ambient temperature environment. The DC-650 PRO is available from the factory in one model only with a choice of input voltages.
INSTALLATION Input Connections WARNING Be sure the voltage, phase and frequency of the input power is as specified on the rating plate. The rating plate is located on the front control panel of the DC650 PRO. ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. • Turn the input power off at the disconnect switch before installing or servicing this machine. • Do not touch electrically “hot” parts such as output terminals or internal wiring. • Connect grounding screw to a good earth ground. • Do not operate with covers removed.

Output Connections The DC-650 PRO output studs are mounted in pairs. The two studs in each pair are internally connected to each other with a buss bar. The studs have a 1/2-13 thread. Output cable lugs must have a hole large enough to clear a 1/2 inch stud. Choose the cable size from the table “Recommended Cable Sizes”. Lengths shown are the total cable length, work cable length plus electrode cable length. See Figure 2 for locations of the various case front connection points.
Wire Feeder Control Cable Connections Lincoln wire feeders can be hooked up to either the 14-pin Wire Feeder Receptacle (#12, Figure 3), or to the terminal strip (behind #11, Figure 3). The Wire Feeder Receptacle is the preferred method, because it virtually eliminates accidental miswirings.
Connection of a K775 Remote Output Control Feed the remote control cable through the box connector on the case front, to provide a strain relief for the cable. Connect the numbered leads in the control cable to the like numbered terminals on the right hand terminal strip (75 to 75, 76 to 76, and 77 to 77). Connect the green ground lead to the stud marked . Connection to Auxiliary Power The DC-650 PRO has an extra 15 amps of 115 amp VAC auxiliary power, above what is required for wire feed equipment.
5. Mode Switch This switch chooses the proper welding mode. Choose from GMAW (MIG), FCAW (flux-cored), SAW (submerged arc), or SMAW (stick). This switch electronically changes the welding characteristics depending on the mode setting. NOTE: The welding cables must also be attached to the proper output studs for best welding performance (See “Output Connections” section). 6. 7.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS GMAW (MIG) Operation Properly connect a wire feeder control cable to either the terminal strip or to the Wire Feeder Receptacle. WARNING ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. • Do not touch electrically live parts or electrode with skin or wet clothing. • Insulate yourself from work and ground. • Always wear dry insulating gloves. -----------------------------------------------------------------------FUMES AND GASES can be dangerous. • Keep your head out of fumes.
FCAW (Flux-Cored) Operation SAW (Submerged Arc) Operation Properly connect a wire feeder control cable to either the terminal strip or to the Wire Feeder Receptacle. Properly connect a wire feeder control cable to either the terminal strip or to the Wire Feeder Receptacle. If welding electrode positive, connect the electrode to the “+” output studs, and connect the work cable to the “-” studs labeled “GMAW, FCAW”. If welding electrode negative, reverse the connections.
SMAW (Stick) Operation Operation with an LN-9 or NA-5 Wire Feeder If welding electrode positive connect the electrode cable to the “+” output studs, and connect the work cable to the “-” studs labeled “SMAW,SAW”. If welding electrode negative, reverse the connections. Do not make any connections to the center pair of output studs. NOTE: Conversion Kits are required for LN-9’s and NA-5’s used with the DC-650 PRO.
terminal strip. (See Figure 4). Instead, extend the wire feeder control cable 21 lead to the workpiece. Insulate the 21 lead connection with tape or other means to achieve 300V withstand capability. The LN-9 or NA-5 will now sense arc voltage through this work sense lead. The DC-650 PRO meters will continue to read the output stud voltage, so there may be a difference between the DC-650 PRO voltmeter and the wire feeder voltmeter.
Overload Protection The DC-650 PRO is protected from excessive output currents by phaseback circuitry on the Control PC board. If the output current exceeds approximately 850 amps, the output of the machine will phase back to a low value. It will remain at a low value until the load is removed. If the output is shorted in one of the constant voltage modes (GMAW, FCAW, or SAW) the output may phase back all the way to zero.

Procedure for Troubleshooting PC Boards WARNING ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill. • Have a qualified individual install and service this equipment. • Turn the power source input power off at the disconnect switch before working on this equipment. • Do not touch electrically hot parts.
Protection PC Board The protection PC Board is located on the back of the control box. It protects the PC Board from electrical noise. Most of the circuits on the Protection board are straight through connections. The board can be checked out in the field with a continuity tester or an ohmmeter. A copy of the DC-650 PRO wiring diagram is needed also. All circuits should show continuity, or nearly zero ohms resistance, from input to output.
