does not appear in the display, the fault lies in the welding gun. If this error code pertains,
contact maintenance.

SERVICE, OPERATION DISTURBANCES

The amount of use and the working environment should be taken into consideration when
planning the frequency of maintenance of MSF. Careful use and preventive maintenance will
help to ensure trouble-free operation.
The following maintenance operations should be carried out at least every six months:
Check:
– The wear of the grooves of the feed rolls. Excessive wear of grooves causes problems in
wire feed.
– The wear of the wire guide tubes of wire feed. Badly worn feed rolls and wire guide tubes
should be discarded.
– The wire guide tube in the gun should be set as near the feed rolls as possible, but not
touching them and the wire must follow a straight line from the end of the tube to the
groove of the feed roll.
– Reel brake adjustment.
– Electric connections
* Oxidised couplings must be cleaned
* Loose couplings must be tightened
Clean dust and dirt from the equipment.
NOTE! When using compressed air, always protect your eyes with proper eye protection.
