4.05 Installing 1 lb Spool (4" diameter)

In order to fit a 1 lb spool (4" diameter) assemble parts in the sequence shown in Figure 4-8.
Installation of wire spool:
1. Remove Wire Spool Hub Retaining Clip. Grasp the loop and pull.
2. Place Fiber Washer and Large Spring onto the Shaft, then load the Wire Spool on the Shaft so that the wire
will feed off the bottom of the spool as spool rotates counter clockwise.
3. Then place Flat Washer Large Hole, Keyed Washer, Spring, Flat Washer Small Hole as shown in Figure 4-8.
Finally secure with Wire Spool Hub Nut.
The Hub tension has been pre-adjusted at the factory. However if adjustment is required, refer to section 4.09.
Use care in handling the spooled wire as it will tend to "unravel" when loosened from the spool. Grasp the
end of the wire firmly and don't let go of it.
