TIG Foot Pedal for Lincoln Electric Welders
This Lincoln Electric K1285-16 TIG foot pedal provides remote amperage control for compatible welding machines. It connects to the generator or power source to regulate output current during TIG welding. The accessory weighs 5.55 units and is supplied new.
Welders needing hands-free current control
The pedal suits operators who must adjust amperage while both hands manage the torch and filler rod. It is not for users whose machines lack the required remote receptacle or control circuitry. Buyers needing a hand-operated amperage control should look elsewhere.
Compatibility with listed Lincoln Electric models
This pedal fits the specific Lincoln Electric models listed in the specifications, including K1285-16, K1286-16, K1288 series and K1728 series among others. Verify your power source model number against the supported list before purchasing.

Questions about this item
How do I connect the K1285-16 foot pedal to a Lincoln Electric welder, and what step is often missed?
Plug the pedal's control cable into the 14-pin receptacle on compatible models such as the K1286-16 or K1726-5; the step often missed is verifying the welder's menu is set to remote amperage control before welding.
What maintenance or replacement will the K1285-16 pedal need over time?
The internal potentiometer and return spring can wear after heavy use, causing erratic current; replacement potentiometer kits are available for Lincoln Electric foot pedals.
What limit appears first when using the K1285-16 pedal continuously at high amperage?
The pedal's 5.55 kg housing relies on passive cooling, so extended high-amperage runs can overheat the internal resistor, leading to thermal drift before the welder's duty cycle is reached.
