Ÿ
Open the access panel.
Ÿ Unscrew and remove the wire spool retention cap used for 8-inch spools (A) and store it someplace safe.
Ÿ
Remove the spindle adapter for 8-inch spools (B) and keep it someplace safe.
Ÿ
Remove the nut (C), spring (D), and washers (E).
Ÿ Remove the outer wrapping from the included spool of wire and then find the leading end of the wire (it goes through a hole in the
outer edge of the spool and is bent over the spool edge to prevent the wire from unspooling) but do not unhook it yet.
Ÿ Place the spool on the WIRE SPOOL SPINDLE so that the wire unspools from the bottom, and the spool will rotate
counterclockwise.
Ÿ Place the washer, wire spool, bushing, spring, and nut back.
Ÿ
Proceed to the “FEEDING WIRE THROUGH THE MIG GUN” instructions below.
Installing 4-Inch Spool (See Figure For Part Identification):
Feeding Wire Through The Mig Gun:
Ÿ
Unhook the wire and hold the wire end and the spool in one hand. Use the other hand to tighten the nut (C) to some extent so that
when the spool is released, it does not spin freely and uncoils the wire. Tightening the nut too much may cause inconsistent wire
feeding. Leaving it too loose will allow the wire to straighten freely from the spool, leaving a mess of wire in the cabinet.
Ÿ While holding the wire in place, use a wire cutter to cut the bent end of the wire so that only a straight end remains.
Ÿ
Hold the wire end in one hand and release the drive roller pressure arm (I) by pulling the pressure arm adjustment knob (G)
toward you. Hold the drive roller pressure arm up off of the drive roller and insert the leading end of the wire into the inlet guide
tube (H). Push the wire across the drive roller (J) and into the gun assembly approximately six inches.
Ÿ Align the wire up in the groove of the drive roller and allow the drive pressure arm to drop onto the drive roller. Pull the inner
pressure arm adjustment knob back over the pressure arm and tighten (turn clockwise) the pressure adjusting knob until the
pressure roller applies enough force on the wire to prevent it from slipping out of the drive assembly.
NOTE: Too much pressure will cause wire to feeding problems and may burn out the wire feed motor.
Ÿ Let go of the wire.
Ÿ
Remove the nozzle (K) and contact tip (L) from the end of the gun assembly (M).
Ÿ
Plug the welder’s INPUT POWER CABLE into the AC power source. Adjust the settings at the front panel per the setup chart on
the welding machine’s inside door according to the wire and workpiece size.
Ÿ
Pull the trigger on the MIG gun to feed the wire through the gun assembly. Check if the drive roller is slipping on the wire and
increase pressure on the pressure arm adjustment knob if necessary.
Ÿ
When at least an inch of wire sticks out past the end of the gun, release the trigger.
Ÿ Slide the contact tip (L) over the wire protruding from the end of the gun (M). Screw the contact tip into the end of the gun and
hand tighten securely.
Ÿ Install the nozzle (K) on the gun assembly.
Ÿ
Open the access panel.
Ÿ
Unscrew and remove the wire spool retention cap (A).
Note: If the wire spool retention cap and the spindle adapter for 8-inch spools (B) are not present (the machine was last
used with a 4-inch spool), put the spindle adapter for 8-inch spools back in place.
Ÿ
Ensure all of the components used for a 4-inch spool are still in place. They are necessary for 8-inch spools as well (nut (C), spring
(D), and washers (E)).
Ÿ
Remove the outer wrapping from the spool of wire and then find the leading end of the wire (it goes through a hole in the outer
edge of the spool and is bent over the spool edge to prevent the wire from unspooling) but do not unhook it yet.
Ÿ
Place the spool on the spindle adapter for an 8-inch spool so that the wire unspools from the bottom, and the spool will rotate
counterclockwise.
Note: Be sure the alignment pin near the base of the spindle adapter for 8-inch spools is inserted in the corresponding
hole on the spool.
Ÿ
Thread the wire spool retention cap back in place.
