(1) Removing/Replacing the Wire Spool
If the wire spool is mounted on the spool
holder, it needs to be removed in order
to remove the plastic wrapper. To do this,
proceed as follows:
Unscrew and remove the plastic knob (A),
followed by the spring and collar (B) from
the hub.
Remove the plastic wrapper then slide the
spool back over the hub, ensuring that it sits
snugly, and replace the collar, spring and
plastic knob, tightening it sufficiently to allow
the spool to rotate smoothly but with a slight
amount of braking friction.
Do not over tighten as this will exert undue
pressure on the wire drive motor and may
cause serious damage.
C. INSTALLING THE WELDING WIRE
NOTE: These machines are supplied with a Clarke ‘Mini’ spool of mild steel flux cored
welding wire. A 5kg spool is available from your Clarke dealer. See ‘Accessories’ for
full details.
1. IMPORTANT: Ensure that theelectrical supply is disconnected.
2. Firstly remove the side cover, on the left hand side of the unit, by pulling it sharply
upwards.

(2) Threading the Welding Wire
Re: Fig.4
1. Loosen the plastic knob (A) by turning it
anticlockwise, (this device maintains
pressure on the wire).
2. Pull, on the plastic knob, so that
the screw rod hinges out of its slot.
This releases the pivoted pressure
roller bracket (C). Raise the bracket,
in the direction of the arrow, and pull
out any wire that has been left in the
wire liner (D), pulling it from the
nozzle end of the hose.
