4.2 Mounting and locking of filler wire spool
2.
1.
3.
To mount the wire spool:
1.
Turn the locking knob of the spool holder so that the locking clips are opened (1).
2.
Check the rotating direction of the wire spool and push the spool into its place so that it
rotates in the right direction (2).
3.
Turn the locking knob of the spool holder to close the locking clips (3).
NOTE!
Check that the filler wire spool is correctly mounted and locked into position. Ensure the
spool is not damaged or deformed in such a way that it can rub or chaff against the internal
surface of the wire feed unit chassis or door. This may result in increased drag, impacting on weld
quality. This may also result in long term wire feed unit damage, rendering the unit unserviceable
or unsafe to use.
4.3 Setting the spool brake force
To prevent the filler wire from uncoiling on overrun following use at high feed speeds, you can
change the brake force of the welding spool. Adjust the spool brake force through the hole in
the spool locking mechanism. Increase the force by turning the screw clockwise and decrease
it by turning it anticlockwise.
NOTE!
Do not over tighten and reduce the pressure for light filler wire types.
