11. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The K173 2 Magnum X Tractor vacuum source is made up of a vacuum motor and control assembly a sheet metal filter cabinet with filter and a metal spark trap with an inlet pipe on it These three basic compo nents fasten together and can easily be separated for servicing The vacuum is also shipped with a hose adapter to fit 1 3 4 45 mm exhaust hose Lincoln Electric has 1 3 4 hoses for both regular duty PVC flexhose S19947 and heavy duty Reinforced rubber 14927 8 applications The vacuum motor and control are enclosed in a mold ed housing Inside the housing are the vacuum motor and blower The motor uses a separate source of cool ing air independent of the warm filtered air to assure cool operation The motor also uses long life carbon brushes that can be replaced should they ever wear out On top of the housing are the power on off auto rocker switch adjustable rotary knob to set the auto matic shut off delay time after welding stops a full filter indicator light to signal when the filter needs changing a pilot light to indicate that the power switch is in the auto mode and an area designed to accept the work cable so the unit can sense welding current in the cable The sheet metal filter cabinet is a non pressurized cab inet All the vacuum air flow passes through the totally enclosed disposable filter and out the top of the cabi net through a sound trap This means that the cabinet can
