Operation disturbances
The amount of usage and the working environment should be taken into consideration when planning the frequency
of maintenance of the Kempomat. Careful use and preventive maintenance will help to ensure problem-free oper-
ation.
The following maintenance operations should be carried out at least every six months.
Wire feed:
The wear of the grooves of the feed rolls. Excessive wear of grooves causes prob-
lems in wire feed.
The wear of the wire guide tubes of the wire feeder unit. Badly worn feed rolls and
wire guide tubes should be discarded.
The wire guide tube should be set as near the feed rolls as possible, but not in
contact. The wire must follow a straight line from the end of the tube to the groove of
the feed roll.
Reel brake adjustment.
