is applied to the
output terminals, feed roll, work clamp,
gun cable connection and welding wire
even when the the gun switch is not
activated. Do not touch these parts
when the welding machine is on.
NOTE: Before installing welding wire,
be sure that the diameter of the
welding wire matches the contact tip in
the end of the gun. The wire size is
marked on the contact tip in inches or
mm. (See chart below).

1. Verify the unit is off and lift the door
on the welder to expose the wire
feed mechanism.
2. Remove the spool quick lock, by
pushing in and rotating 1/4 turn
counterclockwise. The knob, spring,
and spool spacer can now be removed.
3. Loosen the wire feed tensioning
screw on the drive mechanism. This
allows initial feeding of the wire into
the gun liner by hand.
4. Install the wire spool onto the
spindle so that the wire can come off
the spool on the end closest to the
wire feed guide tube. Do not cut
the wire loose yet. Install the spool
spacer, spring, and quick lock knob
by pushing in and turning the knob
1/4 rotation clockwise.
5. Hold the wire and cut the wire end
from the spool. Do not allow the wire

to unravel. Be sure that the end of the
wire is straight and free of burrs.
6. Feed the wire through the wire feed
guide tube, over the groove in the
drive roll and into the gun liner.
Tighten the wire feed tensioning
screw so that it is snug. Do not over
tighten.

7. Remove the nozzle by turning
counterclockwise. Then, unscrew the
contact tip from the end of the
welding torch. (See Figure 6). Plug
the welder into the proper power
supply receptacle.
8. Turn on the welder and set the wire

Internal components of this welder are
protected from overheating with an
automatic thermal switch. A yellow
lamp is illuminated on the front panel
(on/off switch) if the duty cycle is
exceeded. Welding operations may
continue when the yellow lamp is no
longer illuminated.
