TO THREAD WIRE INTO FEEDER:
1.
Loosen top idler tensioner, rotating the black tensioner knob counter-clockwise
2.
Flip the tensioner down, releasing the top drive roll carrier arm.
3.
Raise top drive idler roller. Inspect the drive roll to make sure that the groove size
matches the wire diameter.
4.
Reversal of the lower roller may be necessary. To reverse the roller, remove the
black thumb screw securing the drive roll. Pull the drive roll off, and flip the drive
roll over. Reassemble and tighten roller. If larger roller is needed, contact Everlast.
5.
Thread straightened wire into coiled sheath and over grooves in lower drive roll.
Thread through until it threads into the gun section 3”-4”. Lower the upper drive roll
onto lower drive roll, keeping the wire securely fixed in the groove of the feed roller.
Make sure the correct size groove has been selected.
6.
Raise tensioner back into place. Tighten slightly so wire will feed. Notice markings
on tensioner for future reference.
7.
Hold torch straight out as possible. Press gun trigger to feed wire until the wire
exits the end of the torch.
8.
Adjust tensioner clockwise until drive rolls will not slip when the wire comes into
contact with a hard surface and the wire will curl up on end. Remember to keep
wire away from metal that is attached to the work clamp to prevent the wire from
arcing while performing this test.
TO LOAD WIRE SPOOL:
1.
Loosen and remove the hand nut by turning it counter-clockwise.
2.
Align the locating pin with the hole on the wire spool (if present).
3.
Slide spool onto the shaft. Make sure wire is unwinding from the bottom of the spool.
4.
Use a 8mm hex wrench to adjust tension (Hex screw located under hand nut)
5.
Lightly spin the spool. If it free-wheels more than 1/4 turn, tighten hex screw. If it does
not free-wheel at all, loosen hex screw until it free wheels 1/4 turn.
6.
Reinstall Hand nut so the spool is retained securely.
7.
Locate end of wire and clip the bent end of the wire so that it will feed through the wire
feed mechanism smoothly. Carefully hold the spool of wire with one hand so the wire
will not despool. Proceed to instructions listed below: “To thread wire into feeder”
