Mounting Synergic 7F Wire Drive Unit
Mount the wire feed unit by means of the insulated mounting
bracket attached to the bottom of the gearbox. Reference
L9777 (included with Drive unit) to find the size and location
of the mounting holes. The gearbox assembly is electrically
“hot” when the gun trigger is pressed. Therefore, make cer-
tain the gearbox does not come in contact with the structure
on which the unit is mounted.
The wire feed unit should be mounted so that the drive rolls
are in a vertical plane so dirt will not collect in the drive roll
area. Position the mechanism so it will point down at about
a 45° angle so the wire feed gun cable will not be bent
sharply as it comes from the unit.
Note: The K1565-1 Control Box must be used with the
K679 drives.
Mounting the STT-10 Control Box (K1565-2)
(Boom Model)
The STT-10 Boom Model has two keyhole slots and one
bottom slot for mounting. See Figure A.2 for the size and
location of these slots. Mount the box at some convenient
location close to the wire drive unit which will enable the
desired control cable to reach between the control box and
the drive unit.

a) Drill the required holes in the mounting surface, partially
Install 1/4-20 screws.
b) Mount the box.
c) Tighten the screws.
Mounting the STT-10 Control Box (K1565-2)
(Removed from the wire drive unit.) (See Figure A.3)
Remove reed switch energizer assembly which includes:
4-pin connections, energizer spacer, insulation, mounting
screws and washers from reel stand.
Mount the reed switch energizer assembly on the mounting
bracket (G2868) as shown In Figure A.3. Then install
mounting bracket G2868 to the rear of STT-10 control box.
Secure it on the sides of box with (4) # 10-3/8” long screws.

Connecting Wire Drive Unit to Control Box.
One K1567-“L” head to control cable is needed to connect between
the control box and the wire drive.
K1567-“L” Includes a control cable with 14-pin MS style connec-
tion on each end, and a weld cable (rated 300 amps, 60% duty
cycle) to route between the wire drive and the control box.
Avaialble in lengths “L” of 16,20 or 25 ft. (4.9, 6.1m or 7.6m).
a) Making certain the cables are protectedfrom any sharp corners
which may damage their jackets, mount the cable assembly
along the boom so the end with the female amphenol connector
pins is at the wire feed unit.
b) Take the cables and connect the 14 pin cable between the 14 pin
receptacles on the wire drive unit and 14 pin receptacle on the
STT-10 Control Box.
c) Take electrode cable thatʼs part of the cable and connect one end
of the ½ connection bolt on the front of wire drive and the other
end to one side of
the energizer assembly.
