Adjusting nut
• Extend and lay out the torch hose package.
• Carefully unwind the welding wire from the wire spool and insert through the wire feed nipples up to
the wire feed rollers.
• Press the inching push-button (the drive catches the welding wire and automatically guides it to the
welding torch outlet).
NOTE
A prerequisite for the automatic inching process is the correct preparation of the wire
guide, especially in the capillary and wire guide tube area (see the note in the chapter
Welding torch connection).
• Set the pressure at the feed roll tensioner adjusting nuts depending on the welding consumable. The
pressure must be set for each side (left/right) separately. Setting values see table:
Automatic inching stop
Touch the welding torch against the workpiece during inching. Inching of the welding wire will stop as
soon it touches the workpiece.
