Replace the collar, spring and plastic knob, tightening the knob sufficiently to
allow the spool to rotate smoothly but with a slight amount of braking friction.
Do not over tighten as this will exert undue pressure on the wire drive motor
and may cause serious damage.
IMPORTANT!
If you are changing the size of wire, you must also select the appropriate
groove on the feed roller. See p. 18
Pull out the end of the wire from
the rim of the spool, taking care
NOT to release it. The spool is
wound firmly and should remain
this way.
Ensuring the wire is straight and
not kinked in any way, clip off the
end are no burrs or sharp edges.
Proceed to feed it through the
guide tube (E), over the groove
on the roller (B), and into the wire
liner (D), by about 10 - 15 cm.
Tightening the knob (A) too tightly will crush the wire and damage the
wire feed motor, too loose will not allow the wire to be pulled by the roller.
(Ref. Figs. 3)
4.
Loosen the plastic knob (A) by
turning it anticlockwise, (this
device maintains pressure on the
wire).
5.
Pull, on the plastic knob, so that
the screw rod hinges out of its
slot. This releases the pivoted
pressure roller bracket (C).
Raise the bracket, in the
direction of the arrow, and pull
out any wire that has been left
in the wire liner (D), pulling it
from the nozzle end of the
hose.

tighten slightly.
