Setting wire tension.
IMPORTANT: You must set the correct tension, too little or too much tension will cause problematic wire
feed and result in a poor weld.
•
For mild steel 0.6mm wire the wire tension screw must be fully tightened and undone approximately
two complete turns (fig.7).
•
Correct tension between the rollers is checked by slowing down the wire between the fingers. If the
pressure roller skids the tension is correct. Try to use the lowest tension possible as too high a tension
will deform the wire and may result in blowing a fuse on the printed circuit board. When you have
completed welding disconnect the unit from the mains supply and store it in a safe, dry place.
Note: Damaged torches and cables are not covered under warranty.
