Page 9: Section Ii Introduction
Section II Introduction The cold wire feeder is designed to supply filler metal to the weld puddle in a mechanized tungsten arc welding or plasma arc welding application. The system will accurately feed 0.020”, 0.030”, 0.035”, 0.045”, 0.062” and 0.093” (0.5 to 2.4 mm) hard and soft wires for mechanized TIG or plasma welding.

Page 11: Section Iii Installation
Section III Installation As standard, the unit is provided with 6 ft. (1830 mm) of cable between the control and the wire drive assembly. The control is typically mounted near the feeder due to the length of the control cable. To mount the wire drive assembly, transfer mounting holes from the wire feeder’s aluminum mounting plate to the mounting surface.
Page 12 At this point, slide the conduit through the outlet guide. You should extend the conduit beyond the tapered end of the outlet guide approximately 1/4” (6 mm). Tighten the set screw securely, holding the conduit properly in position. e. Insert the outlet guide/conduit assembly into the drive roll assembly. Position it so the chamfered conduit is very close to the drive rolls.

Page 15: Section V Operating Instructions
Section V Operating Instructions Preparation for Welding Mount the spool of welding wire on the spool adapter so the wire will be pulled from the low side of the coil. Adjust the friction brake on the wire spool by adjusting the screw in the center of the spool.

When the remote start signal quits, the unit will go through the stop delay, then stop. The unit then proceeds to enter the wire retract time, pulling the wire out of the weld zone. This action prevents the wire from sticking in the weld puddle at the end of the weld. Note: If the retract time is set too long, the wire could retract up into the wire tip.
Page 17: Section Vi Maintenance
Section VI Maintenance Periodically clean the drive rolls of dirt and chips. Occasionally check the wear of liners, tips, and guides. Periodically check, and replace if necessary, the carbon brushes on the motor. Failure to replace worn brushes could cause severe damage to motor control. Maintenance and electrical work must be performed by experienced and trained personnel.
