2.4 Mounting wire spool
Ensure that quality filler wire is loaded to the wire feed cabinet. Check that the correct wire guide tube and
wire feed rolls are selected and fitted for the filler wire type used.
For more information on wire spool installation and replacement, refer to the X8 MIG Welder's manual.
Check that the filler wire spool is correctly mounted and locked into position. Ensure the spool is not
damaged or deformed in such a way that it can rub or chaff against the internal surface of the wire
feed unit chassis or door. This may result in increased drag, impacting on weld quality. This may also res-
ult in long term wire feed unit damage, rendering the unit unserviceable or unsafe to use.
When changing the wire spool, the pressure of the feed rolls is not necessary to be released. Simply ensure
that the groove of the feed roll matches the diameter of filler wire used. For the filler wire preparations, refer
to section "Preparing filler wire" on page 14.
