Slide the MIG wire spool (not included) over the
hub, ensuring that it sits snugly, and replace the
plastic knob, tightening it sufficiently to allow the
spool to rotate smoothly but with a slight
amount of braking friction. Ensure that the
groove size in the feeding position on the drive
roll matches the contact tip size of the welding
torch and the wire size being used.
Do not over tighten as this will exert undue
pressure on the wire drive motor and may cause
serious damage.
Threading the Welding Wire (Fig.9)
Loosen the plastic knob (A) by turning it
anticlockwise, (this device maintains pressure on
the wire).
Pull, on the plastic knob, so that the screw rod
hinges out of its slot. This releases the pivoted
pressure roller bracket (B). Raise the bracket
and pull out any wire that has been left in the
wire liner (F), pulling it from the nozzle end of the
hose.
