This can result in severe personal injury and damage to property.

All the functions described may only be used by trained and qualified personnel.

Fully read and understand this document.

Fully read and understand all the Operating Instructions for the system components,
especially the safety rules.

Prerequisites

When commissioning the wire-feed unit, the following requirements must be met:
-

Wire-feed unit connected to the power source using the interconnecting hosepack

-

Welding torch connected to wire-feed unit

-

Feed rollers inserted in the wire-feed unit

-

Wirespool or basket-type spool and adapter inserted in the wire-feed unit

-

Wire electrode threaded in

-

Feed roller contact pressure set

-

Brake adjusted

-

All covers closed, all side panels in place, all protection devices intact and in their
proper place

General

The wire-feed unit is started by pressing the torch trigger (for manual applications) or by
means of a welding start-up signal (for automatic applications).
