Wire Feed Set Up

Setup the wire in the power source feed unit ready to be fed through 
the torch. If the wire has a strong cast, feeding can be improved by 

adding a slight bend in the end of the wire to straighten it, before clamping in the 
feed rolls. 

To feed the wire through the torch;
•  Turn on the power source.
•  Press the torch trigger. This should start the power source feed unit drive and 

the torch feed unit drive simultaneously. 

•  The wire will fed up through the torch. Use the speed control of the power 

source wire feed unit to vary the wire feed speed, slowing the wire as it reaches 
the end of the torch. 

•  As the wire feeds into the torch feed unit have the rolls in the open position by 

pulling on the roll pressure release lever, which should be adjusted to a low 
pressure load. 

•  When the wire passes between the rolls release the trigger to stop the drive. 
•  Release the lever to close the rolls together. You may need to push the wire 

•  Operate the torch trigger again to fed the wire into the neck guide and through 

the neck. 

•  When the wire is visible from the end of the contact tip release the trigger to 

stop the wire feeding.
