Release the pressure arms to move the feed rolls apart. This opens a gap between the feed rolls.

Release the filler wire end from the spool and cut off any deformed section so that the end is straight.
Note:
Ensure that the filler wire does not spill from the spool when it is released.
13.
File the tip of the filler wire smooth.
Caution:
Sharp edges on the filler wire tip may damage the wire liner.
14.
Guide the filler wire through the inlet tube (A) and middle wire guide tube (B) to the outlet, which feeds
the filler wire to the welding gun. Push the filler wire by hand inside the gun so that the wire reaches the
wire liner (about 20 cm).
15.
Close the pressure arms so that the filler wire is locked between the feed rolls. Ensure that the filler wire
sits in the feed roll grooves.
16.
Lower the pressure handle on the feed rolls.
17.
Adjust the pressure of the feed rolls with the pressure adjustment wheels. The pressure is the same for
both feed roll pairs.
The graduated scales on the pressure handle indicate the pressure applied to the feed rolls. Adjust the
pressure of the feed rolls according to the table below.
