For the aluminum welding it is also necessary to provide the torch tefl. liner and
special current nipple. We do not recommend you to use the torch longer than 3
m. Great attention must be paid to adjust the contact power of rolls – it must not
be too high, otherwise there is a deformation of the wire.
As a protective atmosphere is necessary to use argon.

INSERTING THE WIRE
1. Open the side cover of the wire feeder space.
2. Put the wire spool on the wire spool holder
D1 and fix it with the fixing nut
D2 . If a spool (size of 15 or 18 kg) is used, put on each side of the spool
adapter D3 . The hole in the back of the adapter must fit into the pin on the
wire spool holder!
3. Cut off the curved or damaged end of welding wire and lead it through the
inlet liner E3, and the roll into the liner inside the EURO torch connector
(about 5 cm). Make sure, that you use the suitable groove.
4. Put the pressure arm E2 down in that way, that the teeth or the gear fit and
fix it by setting the lever E1 into vertical position.
5. Adjust the pressure nut that way that it provides constant movement of
wire but it does not deform wire. The adjusting screw is located under the
plastic screw
E1 .
6. The spool brake is set by the manufacturer. If necessary, the brake can be
adjusted by a screw D1 so that while stopping the feed, spool will be
stopped on time (it will avoid excessive release of wire).However, too tight
brake needlessly strains the feeding mechanism and thus slippage may
occur in the wire rolls.
