If you are running a Lincoln Electric C663 engine drive, you know that space on your truck or trailer is at a premium. The Lincoln Electric K52117-1 Onboard Feeder Upgrade Kit is the solution to decluttering your setup and boosting your efficiency. This kit allows you to mount your wire feeder directly on top of or to the side of your welder, depending on the specific configuration, effectively turning your two-piece setup into a single, powerful welding powerhouse. No more hauling a separate feeder cart through the mud or worrying about your feeder sliding around the bed of your truck.
Built for the Field
When you are out on a job site, your equipment takes a beating. Vibration from the engine, bumps from the road, and the general wear and tear of industrial work mean you need mounting hardware that won't fail. This genuine Lincoln kit is built tough. It features heavy-duty brackets and high-strength hardware designed to hold your feeder securely, even when the engine is running at full RPM or you are navigating a rocky access road. It keeps your controls right where you need them—at the machine—simplifying your workflow.
Professional Installation & Look
Nothing looks more professional than a clean, organized rig. Using the K52117-1 gives your equipment a factory-finished look that jerry-rigged straps or homemade brackets just can't match. Beyond aesthetics, it's about reliability. A loose feeder can strain cables, damage gas lines, or even fall and break. This kit locks everything down tight. It also helps with cable management; by keeping the feeder close to the power source, you can use shorter jumper cables, which means less cable to coil up at the end of the day and better arc performance due to reduced resistance.
Maximize Your Investment
Your C663 is a workhorse, and adding an onboard feeder capability lets you get the most out of it. Whether you are running flux-cored wire for structural steel or solid wire for fabrication repairs, having the feeder mounted means you are always ready to weld. It reduces setup time—just fire up the engine, unspool the gun, and go. This kit is an essential upgrade for any serious welder looking to streamline their operation and protect their valuable wire feeding equipment.
