b. Installing the wire

Electrical Shock

• Electric shock can cause injury or death! Always turn the POWER switch OFF and

unplug the power cord from the AC power source before installing wire.

NOTE:

- Before installing, make sure that you have removed any old wire from the torch assembly. This will

help to prevent the possibility of the wire jamming inside the gun liner.

- Be very careful when removing the welding nozzle. The contact tip on this welder is live whenever

the torch trigger is pulled. Make certain POWER is turned OFF.

c. Remove the nozzle and contact tip from the end of the torch assembly.

d. Make sure the proper groove on the drive roller is in place for the wire installed. If not,

change the drive roller as described in Section 3.

e. Remove the packaging from the spool of wire and then identify the leading end of the wire

secured on the edge of the spool. DO NOT UNHOOK IT AT THIS TIME.

f. Place the spool on the spool hub so the wire will pull off the TOP of the spool. The welding

wire should always come off the TOP of the spool into the drive mechanism. See

following figure.
