IPG Photonics LightWELD - Step 5: Feed the Wire

Step 5: Feed the Wire
1
Plug the wire feeder unit into a standard 110V outlet and turn on the power.
2
Ensure the Wire Feeder Attachment is as straight as
possible to prevent the wire from kinking and getting stuck
on this initial feed.
Warning: Ensure that the adapter’s outlet is not directly
pointing at yourself or others. Keep your hands and
fingers out of the direct line of the wire’s path as there is a
potential for the wire to puncture skin
Wire Feeder Attachment is straightened
across floor
3
Unscrew the Contact Tip from the Weld Head Adapter. This is to prevent any potential jamming on the
initial feed.
