4.2 Loading the Welding Wire
1. Mount the wire drum according to the instructions on page 13.
2. Check that feed roller (1) and contact jaw or contact tip (3) are of the correct
dimension for the selected wire size.
3. For A6SF F1 Twin:
Feed the wire through the wire guide (8).
4. When welding with fine wire:
Feed the wire through the fine wire feed unit (6).
Ensure that the straightener is correctly adjusted so that the wire emerges
straight out through the contact jaws or contact tip (3).
5. Pull the end of the wire through the straightener (2).
For a wire diameter greater than 2 mm; straighten out 0.5 m of wire and feed
it by hand down through the straightener.
6. Locate the end of the wire in the feed roller (1) groove.
7. Set the wire tension on the feed roller with the knob (4).
Note! Do not tension more than is required to achieve an even feed.
8. Feed the wire forward 30 mm below the contact tip by pressing on control
box PEK.
9. Straighten the wire by adjusting the knob (5).
Always use a guide tube (7) to ensure even feed of fine wire (1.6 - 2.5 mm).
