Roll Pressure Adjustment

Before welding the pressure roll will need to be tightened against the 
wire sat in the groove of the two feed rolls. 

To adjust;
• 

Turn the pressure adjustment knob on the side of the torch in 

the clockwise direction. Turn one, two or three times to load up the 

pressure on the rolls. 

•  If during welding the rolls appear to be loosing grip on the wire, add more 

pressure to the rolls by additional clockwise turns on the adjustment knob.

Do not over tighten as this may damage the wire and cause excessive debris build 
up in the drive unit.

Identifying drive balance condition:

With the pressure roll slackened off , watch the torch pull drive roll rpm relative to
the wire feed speed.

If the wire is moving faster 
than the roll rotates, this is an 
“Under” speed condition which 
may lead to the wire tangling 
and nesting at the back of the 
rolls.

If the wire is moving slower 
than the roll rotates, this is 
an “Over” speed condition 
leading to wire stretching and 
excessive debris build up in 
the drive chamber.

The ideal condition is a slight 
over speed condition. Enough 
speed to pull on the wire but 
not too much that the rolls skid 
excessively over the wire and wearing.
