(3) Wire retract button
For retracting the wire electrode with no accompanying flow of gas or current
The wire electrode can be retracted using one of two methods:
Method 1
Retracting the wire electrode using the preset wire retract speed:
Press and hold "Wire retract" button
- The wire electrode will be retracted 1 mm (0.039 in.) after the wire retract
button is pressed
- After a short pause, the wirefeeder continues to retract the wire electrode. If
the wire retract button remains pressed, the speed will increase every
second at a rate of 10 m/min (393.70 ipm) until the preset wire retract speed
is reached
Method 2
Retracting the wire electrode in 1 mm increments (0.039 in. increments) – always
press the wire retract button for less than one second (tap)
NOTE!
Do not allow long lengths of wire electrode to be retracted, as the wire electrode is
not wound onto the wirespool or the welding wire drum when retracted.
NOTE!
If there was a ground earth connection with the contact tip before the wire retract
button was pressed, the wire electrode will be retracted when the button is
pressed until it is short-circuit-free - it retracts by no more 10 mm (0.39 in.) with
each press of the button.
If the wire electrode still needs to be retracted, press the wire retract button again.
(4) Wire threading button
For threading the wire electrode into the torch hosepack with no accompanying
flow of gas or current
Wire threading can be performed using one of two methods:
Method 1
Retracting the wire electrode using the preset feeder inching speed:
Press and hold "Wire threading" button
