drive mechanism are always "hot"
to work and ground and could
remain "hot" several seconds after
the gun trigger is released.

1. Turn the reel or spool until the free end of the elec-
trode is accessible.
2. While tightly holding the electrode, cut off the bent
end and straighten the first 6" (15 cm). Cut off the
first 1" (2.5 cm). If the electrode is not properly
straightened, it may not feed or may jam.
3. Insert the free end through the incoming guide
bushing.
4. Press the Cold Feed switch and push the electrode
into the drive roll.
5. Feed the electrode through the gun.
6. Adjust the brake tension with the thumbscrew on
the spindle hub, until the reel turns freely but with
little or no overrun when the wire feeding stops. Do
not overtighten.
