Remove wing nut, washer and black bushing. Slide on spool
adapter. Reinstall bushing, washer and wing nut. Slide on 8”
spool of wire. Knob on spool adapter slides into hole on side of
8” spool of wire. See Step 12 to adjust wire spool tension.

turning the wing nut clockwise on the Drive Roll Tension Adjust-
ment. Do not overtighten. See Step 13.

ADJUSTING SPOOL TENSION
Adjust the wing nut in the center of the spool to adjust spool ten-
sion. A small amount of slack should be in the weld wire when
wire feeding stops. Too much tension will cause poor feeding.
Too little tension will cause the wire on the spool to uncoil.
