In the spool gun mode, the weld output is controlled by the trigger
of the spool gun. The knob on the Maverick
voltage and the spool gun knob sets wire feed speed. Rotating the
knob on the spool gun adjusts the work point (wire feed speed).
Spool gun modes have the option of being "synergic" (when the
wire feed speed is changed, the voltage is automatically modified
up or down to maintain a similar arc length).
Spool guns are also compatible with other wire feed modes, such
as MIG and FCAW. When in a wire feed mode and the spool gun
is connected, the wire feed speed will adjust to match the
potentiometer located on the spool gun, as long as the wire feed
speed is above 70. The wire feed speed may be adjusted for a
separate wire feeder while the spool gun is connected. If the
spool gun's potentiometer is changed to 0 (the

The best spool gun operation is obtained with the Magnum Pro LX
GT spool gun with mechanical gas flow trigger and Magnum Pro
consumables. The standard Magnum PRO 250 LX gun is also
supported but requires an external gas control. The Magnum SG
spool gun and Magnum PRO 100 SG spool gun are not supported.
