Loading the welding wire (A2 TF, A2 TG)
A2 TF (UP)
A2 TF (UP, Twin)
A2 TG (MIG/MAG)
1. Mount the wire drum according to the instructions on page 83.
2. Check that feed roller (
1
) and contact jaw or contact tip (
3
) are of the correct
dimension for the selected wire size.
3. For A2 TF (Twin) and A2 TG:
S
Feed the wire through the wire guide (
8
).
4. When welding with fine wire:
S
Feed the wire through the fine Wire feed unit (
6
).
Ensure that the straightener is correctly adjusted so that the wire emerges
straight out through the contact jaws or contact tip (
3
).
5. Pull the end of the wire through the straightener (
2
).
S
For a wire diameter greater than 2 mm; straighten out 0.5 m of wire and feed
it by hand down through the straightener.
6. Locate the end of the wire in the feed roller (
1
) groove.
7. Set the wire tension on the feed roller with the knob (
4
).
S
Note!
Do not tension more than is required to achieve an even feed.
8. Feed the wire forward 30 mm with
on the control box
A2 Welding Control Unit (
PEI
).
9. Direct the wire by adjusting the knob (
5
).
S
Always
use a guide tube (
7
) to ensure even feed of fine wire (1.6 -- 2.5 mm).
S
For MIG/MAG welding with wire sizes < 1.6 mm, use a guide spiral, which is
inserted in the guide tube (
7
).
