3.4 Installing and replacing wire liner
The Flexlite GX MIG welding gun cable packs are delivered with the wire liner preinstalled, except the S-models (long
cable packages). Refer to this section when the wire liner needs to be replaced or when taking a Flexlite GX S-model in
use.
The wire liner is a consumable part, which needs to be changed if worn and when the filler wire material changes.
For replacing the steel wire liner, refer to "Replacing steel wire liner" on page16.
For replacing the DL Chili wire liner, refer to "Replacing DL Chili wire liner" below.
For the multi-neck wire liner replacement, refer to "Replacing wire liner for multi-neck" on page21 in conjunction with
the main wire liner replacement instructions.
If you change the filler wire to a different diameter or material, change also the feed rolls in the wire feed system
accordingly.
With most of the Flexlite GX welding gun models both steel wire liner and DL Chili wire liner can be used. However,
with Flexlite GX S-models, it is recommended to use only DL Chili wire liners.
The filler wire must be removed before the wire liner replacement.
This replacement instruction applies to wire liners with a joint end cap and sleeve nut assembly (A). For replacing a wire
liner using a separate end cap and sleeve nut assembly (B), refer to the instructions here (pdf). Always read the instruc-
tions delivered with the replacement wire liner as well.

This same method applies to both Euro connector (GX series 3 and 5) and Kemppi connector (GX series 8) welding guns, but
the visual details may vary. The method is the same also for both gas- and water-cooled welding guns.
1. Straighten the welding gun cable pack.
