INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND SETUP
!
WARNING
DO NOT WEAR GLOVES WHILE THREADING THE WIRE OR CHANGING THE WIRE SPOOL.
G. Lower the pressure levers and with the torch lead reasonably straight, feed the electrode wire through the
torch. Fit the appropriate contact tip, eg a 0.9mm tip for 0.9mm wire.
H Press the INCH button to feed the wire through the torch. (Only applicable to wirefeeders connected to the
10 pin socket. Wirefeeders connected to the 19 pin socket can only be inched from the wirefeeder itself if
that function is available.)
!
WARNING
If the Torch Trigger is used to feed wire through the torch, the electrode wire will be at welding
voltage potential whilst it is being fed through the wirefeeder system.
!
WARNING
Before connecting the work clamp to the work piece make sure the mains power supply is switched
off.
NOTE
Welding Setup Program Storage (10 programs) applies to MIG (10 pin only), Stick and Lift Tig modes.
