When fitting the Wire Spool, the adjustment of the nut will control the MIG Wire Spool Brake. Clockwise
rotation of this nut tightens the brake. The Brake is correctly adjusted when the spool stops within 10 to 20mm
(measured at the outer edge of the spool) after MIG Gun trigger is released. Wire should be slack without
becoming dislodged from the spool.

possibly an increased incidence of electrode wire Burnback into contact tip.
