Wire feed pressure
Start by making sure that the wire moves smoothly through the wire guide. Then set the pressure
of the wire feeder's pressure rollers. It is important that the pressure is not too great.
To check that the feed pressure is set correctly, you can feed out the wire against an insulated
object, e.g. a piece of wood.
When you hold the gun approx. 0.5 mm from the piece of wood (Fig. 1) the feed rollers should slip.
If you hold the gun approx. 50 mm from the piece of wood, the wire should be fed out and bend
(Fig. 2)

Wire inching
Wire inching is used to feed wire without welding voltage and gas flow. The wire is fed as
long as the button is depressed.
