REPLACEMENT QUICK DISCONNECT PLUG
(FOR STICK ELECTRODE CABLE)
The V155-S comes with a factory assembled stick
electrode holder, cable and Twist-mate adapter plug. If
a replacement cable is ever needed a K852-25 Twist-
mate plug will be needed.
To attach the K852-25 plug:
1. Cut off welding cable lug, if present.
2. Remove .75 in. (19mm) of welding cable insulation.
3. Slide rubber boot onto cable end. The boot end
may be trimmed to match the cable diameter. Use
soap or other nonpetroleum-based lubricant to
help slide the boot over the cable, if needed.
4. Cut 45-50% of the copper strands back 1/4” (6
mm).
5. Fold copper strands over cut strands and insert
into ferrule.
6. Slide the copper ferrule into the brass plug.
7. Tighten set screw to collapse copper tube. Screw
must apply pressure against welding cable. The
top of the set screw will be well below the surface
of the brass plug after tightening.
