How to convert Miller foot pedal to work on a Thermal Arc AC/DC welder

[adamss24]

Hi guys, as per title above, bought a new Miller foot pedal a few days ago (thanks to the forum member who pointed it out !) and it will need converting to 8 pin plug to work on a Thermal Arc welder. Does anyone have a wiring diagram to help with conversion please ? By the way, the pedal is a RFCS 14 pin pedal... Thanks in advance !

Thank you Sir, do you know where i can find a plug that will fit the TA machine ? Still waiting for the pedal to come so i need to gather all bits together before chopping up wires ! Cheers !

You might need to check that the pedal has the correct "pot value" on the potentiometer in the pedal or whatever the correct term is so that it matches your welder and reads the pedal signal correctly,
it was spoke about recently on another tig pedal thread.

Hi there,
I have a thermal arcmaster 300AC/DC, I bought a Miller foot pedal same as you, mine has a 14 pin pedal so it fitted straight off and works perfectly, if you don't intend to run the switch on the torch anymore can you not cut it off and wire it to the foot pedal instead?
Cheers,
James.
