g. The welder can use either 4 inch or 8 inch spools. See the following figure for additional
reference. The wing nut controls the tension on the spool.
h. Setting the wire spool tension. a) Turn the spool of wire with one hand. b) Increase the
spool tension by tightening (turn clockwise) the wing nut while turning the spool. Turn the
spool while tightening the wing nut until the spool slows down and you feel a slight drag.
Stop tightening the wing nut, you may need to repeat these steps until proper spool
tension is achieved.
NOTE:
- If TOO MUCH tension is applied to the wire spool, the wire will slip on the drive roller or will
not be able to feed at all. If TOO LITTLE tension is applied, the spool of wire will want to
unspool itself when the trigger is released. Readjust the spool tension using the wing nut as
necessary to correct for either problem.
i. With the welder disconnected form the power source, remove the leading end of the wire
from the spool. Hold on to it securely , so as not to allow unspooling or tangling of the
wire as it will result in tangled wire and feeding problems.
j. Cut off any bent portion of the wire using a wire cutter.
k. Loosen the tension adjusting knob holding the drive tension arm in place and lift the
tension arm up off the drive roller.
