4.3.9.
Referring to fig.4, move the pressure roller moulding back round onto the grooved drive wheel and
swing down the wire lock screw to lock it in place. See section 4.3 regarding wire tension.
4.3.10.
Feeding the wire through to the torch. (See fig.5) Remove gas cup (a) and contact tip (b) from end of torch as follows:
a) Take torch in left hand with the torch tip facing to the right.
b) Grasp gas cup firmly in your right hand.
c) Turn gas cup clockwise only and pull cup out to the right.
WARNING! DO NOT turn gas cup anti-clockwise, as this will damage internal spring.
‰
d) Unscrew the copper contact tip (fig.5.b) (right hand thread) to remove.
4.3.11.
Check welder is switched OFF and that the earth clamp is away from the torch tip. Connect the welder to the mains power supply and
set the voltage switch to MIN.
4.3.12.
Set the wire speed knob to position 5 or 6. Keeping the torch cable as straight as possible and press the torch switch. The wire will
feed through the torch.
4.3.13.

4.4.
SETTING WIRE TENSION
IMPORTANT: You must set the correct tension, too little or too much tension will cause problematic wire feed and result in a poor
weld.
4.4.1.
Correct tension between the rollers is checked by slowing down the wire between gloved fingers. If the pressure roller skids the
tension is correct. Try to use the lowest tension possible as too high a tension will deform the wire. When you have completed
welding allow the welder to cool before storing in a safe, dry place. Note: Damaged torches and cables are not covered
under warranty.
