gun tubes and nozzles

1. Replace worn contact tips as required.

2. Remove spatter from from contact tip, tip holder, insulator and

gun tube after each 10 minutes of arc time or as required.

screw in handle with 3/16" (4.8 mm) Allen wrench.  

4. Pull gun tube out from gun handle.  To reinstall, insert the gun

tube, push in as far as possible, and retighten clamping screw.

Cable Cleaning

Clean cable liner after using approximately 150 (68 kg) pounds of
electrode.  Remove the cable from the wire feeder and lay it out
straight on the floor.  Remove the contact tip from the gun.  Using
an air hose and only partial pressure, gently blow out the cable
liner from the tip holder end.

Excessive pressure at the start may cause the dirt to 
form a plug.

Flex the cable over its entire length and again blow out the cable.
Repeat this procedure until no further dirt comes out.
