in the designated hole as shown in 

(FIG. J)

bottoms against the drive assembly or a gas leak may occur.

Loosen the Brass Tensioner Thumb Screw 

(FIG. K2)

 until it is possible to feed the welding wire through the drive roller grooves.

7. 

Feed the wire by hand from the spool into the inlet guide,

 past the drive rollers and into the wire inlet 

(FIG. K4)

.

8. 

Tighten the Brass Tensioner Thumb Screw
