Gun Lead Connections


Power Cable - Air Cooled
A #2 power cable is used on the Cobra
MX gooseneck gun. The gun end of the
cable is stripped to the copper strands
and wrapped with a copper strip. A
setscrew holds the cable securely in the
gun body with torque requirements of
55-60 in-lb. The cabinet end of the cable
is equipped with a 1/2" ring lug which
attaches to the top hole on the side of
the power block. Supplied with this gun
is a 3/8-16x5/8" bolt, a 3/8" spring lock
washer and a 5/8" flat washer to attach the ring lug to the power block.
Power Cable - Water Cooled
Cobra MX water cooled gun utilizes a power/water cable with a #6 AWG
cable inside a 5/16” diameter hose. The gun end is threaded into the gun
body.These connections utilize a conductive sealant and are tightened with
torque requirements of 100 + 5 IN-LB.

Cobra® MX Owner's Manual - Page 1


Conduit
The Cobra MX gun comes standard with a poly-lined conduit, for feeding
aluminum wire. The longer fitting with a shallow groove is used on the gun
end. A set screw located on top of the gun handle secures the conduit in
place.
Gas Hose
The gas hose is pushed over a barbed fitting on the end of the gun body and
secured by twisting the hose retainer to the end of the hose (shown below).
The hose retainer is re-usable and can be removed and re-installed as
needed. The cabinet end of the gas hose uses our standard gas fitting (1/8” -
27 nps).

Water Hose
If so equipped; The gas hose is pushed over a barbed fitting on the end of
the gun body and secured by twisting the hose retainer to the end of the
hose. The hose retainer is re-usable and can be removed and re-installed as
needed.The other end is connected to the center fitting on the power block.
Control Cable
A multi-conductor control cable is used on the Cobra MX gun. The gun end
of the cable is secured with a cable clamp and the wires are connected to the
potentiometer, the micro switch, the motor and the gun body mechanically.
Slack is left in the electric cable as it exits the back of the gun to prevent
cable and/or wire breakage. The cabinet end has a seven pin "W" clocked
amphenol connector.
Section B Operation
General
The Cobra MX gun maintains a constant, steady, uniform wire feed speed,
regardless of curved or looped wire conduit. The constant push exerted
by the slave motor in the cabinet, combined with the pull of the gun motor,
causes the wire to literally float friction-free through the wire conduit. The
24VDC gun motor is controlled by a three and three-quarter (3 3/4) turn
potentiometer in the gun handle.
Controls and Settings
Potentiometer
The laterally-positioned potentiometer is located in the lower end of the
handle, providing up to 800 ipm with 3 3/4 turns.
Trigger Sensitivity Adjustment
Micro Switch Screw Location
The micro switch assembly consists of the micro
switch, and leads.
Trigger Sensitivity
The amount of trigger lever travel can be shortened
for a quicker or more responsive action.
A more sensitive trigger lever is produced by
reducing the gap between the trigger lever and the
micro switch lever. By turning-in the trigger sensitivity
adjustment screw, it closed the gap between the
trigger lever and the micro switch lever.
Screw adjusted out of
This will enable the operator to increase the trigger, pre-setting the
sensitivity of the trigger lever. micro-switch lever for
shorter motion sensitivity.

Cobra® MX Owner's Manual - Page 2


Sensitivity Adjustment
With the wire feeder turned on (with or without welding wire loaded), turn the
screw in until the micro-switch is activated. Once activated, the gun and wire
feeder motors will begin feeding wire. Retract the screw accordingly until the
system is deactivated and adjusted to the operators' liking.

Drive Roll and Idler Rolls


General
The Cobra MX gun comes standard with a knurled drive roll and a grooved
idler roll,which will handle both hard wire and aluminum wire with diameters
from .030 to 1/16 inch and steel from .030 to .045 inches. Optional insulated
V-groove drive rolls are also available for aluminum wire if desired (see
optional kits).
Drive roll tension is accomplished with a unique spring-loaded pressure
screw. The Cobra MX comes from the factory with the pressure adjustment
screw preset. NO ADJUSTMENT is required for all sizes
and types of wires.
Drive Roll Installation/Removal
Note: Neither of the handles needs to be removed to access the drive or
idler rolls.

Cam Lever

1. Pull the cam lever away from the idler roll.


This will relieve the pressure against the drive
roll (as shown in Figure 1).

Figure 1
2. Align the drive roll removal tool (P/N 931-
0100) over the flats of the drive roll (as
shown in Figure 2). Hold the gun with one
hand or on a table top, with the other hand
give the removal tool a quick snap-turn in
the CLOCKWISE DIRECTION.
3. Once the drive roll is loose, continue to
spin drive roll in the clockwise direction to
remove the drive roll from the gun. Figure 2

4. Install a new drive roll on the left-hand threaded shaft. The drive roll will
self-tighten when it is feeding wire.
Idler Roll Installation and Removal
(Reference Figure 3)
1. Using a slot type screwdriver, loosen idler screw, taking care not to lose
lock washer under idler roll.
2. Insert new idler roll and lock washer onto screw, insuring that idler groove
is toward top and lock washer is beneath.
3. Tighten.

Figure 3

NOTE: Lock washer must be under idler roll or it will not turn freely.

Cobra® MX Owner's Manual - Page 3


Section C Accessories
A gas flow control mechanism (i.e. solenoid or valve) is required so the Cobra
MX can be used on Cobra wire feeders. The following kits are available
depending on the wire feeder used. The factory set times (in seconds) for
normal and latched trigger functions is 0.5 pre-purge and 1.0 post-purge.
Gas/Trigger Control Kit, 115V.......................................................... 005-0713
Gas/Trigger Control Kit, 42V............................................................ 005-0714

Optional Kits
Insulated Drive Roll Kits are used to prevent preheating of the aluminum wire
which may soften it and clog the liner. This picking up of current at the drive
rolls rather than at the contact tip is usually not a problem unless using too
large of a contact tip or excessively oxidized aluminum wire.

Section D Maintenance
Periodic Maintenance
Your Cobramatic system is designed to provide years of reliable service.
Maintenance of the gun will normally consist of a general cleaning of the wire
guide system, including barrels, drive rolls, and conduits at regular intervals.
Remove spatter build-up from inside of nozzles with a hardwood stick.
The only parts on the Cobramatic system that are subject to normal wear are
the conduit, contact tips, gas cups, front body liners, wire guides, drive and
idler rolls. A supply of these parts should be maintained on hand.
The number of units in operation and the importance of minimal down time
will determine to what extent spare parts should be stocked on hand. See
the recommended spare parts list for the most commonly replaced parts.
If repairs do become necessary, qualified shop maintenance personnel can
easily replace any part.

Troubleshooting Guide
Regardless of which gun or feeder used, all MK Products’ push-pull guns
operate on the same principle. The slave motor in the feeder runs at a
fast,constant speed, but has very low torque. It is always trying to feed
more wire than the gun motor wants, and when the motor gets all it wants, it
slows the slave motor, preventing a bird’s nest. Because of the low torque
produced by the slave motor, a brake system is used to prevent wire overrun
rather than tension. The drag adjustment in the feeder is used simply to
keep the wire slightly taut, so it will not pull off the spool while feeding wire.
The high torque 24VDC gun motor is controlled by a solid state speed
control located in the feeder, and a pot located in the gun. The gun motor,
potentiometer, and micro switch are connected to the cabinet/control box via
a control cable and Amphenol connector. If this cable becomes damaged, a
variety of symptoms can occur, depending on which wire(s) break. To test,
check each wire for continuity and shorts.
Remember, the micro switch in the gun activates both the slave motor and
gun motor circuits in the cabinet. Therefore, if the slave motor and brake
solenoid operate, but the gun does not, look more toward the gun motor’s 24
V circuits, speed control, control cable, or the gun motor. If nothing operates,
look more toward the slave motor’s input, micro switch leads, or micro switch.

Testing The Gun


Reference the "W" clocked gun wiring diagram on
the Cobra MX electrical diagram for information
about pin-outs and locations.
Motor Check
Remove the gun connector from the cabinet.
Using the gun Amphenol connector, check the resistance across pins “A”
and “B” (motor leads).
If an open circuit (more than K ohms) or short exist (less than 2 ohms)
exists, check the motor leads and motor independently.
Testing the Potentiometer - “W” Clocked
Using the gun amphenol connector, check the resistance across pin “D”
(wiper) and pin “C”. The resistance should vary from 0 - 5K ohms as the
potentiometer is turned.
Check the resistance across pin “D” (wiper) and pin “G”. The resistance
should vary from 5K - 0 ohms as the potentiometer is turned.
Testing the Micro Switch
Using the gun amphenol connector, check for continuity across pins “E” and
“F” when the trigger is pressed.
