2.7 Loading the filler wire and automatic feed
Automatic wire feed makes wire spool changes faster. When changing the wire spool, the
pressure of feed rolls need to be released.
Simply ensure that the groove of the feed roll matches the diameter of filler wire used. Release
the wire end from the spool and cut off any deformed section. Be careful the wire does not
spill from the spool sides.
Straighten about 20 cm of filler wire and ensure the tip has no sharp edges. File if necessary, as
a sharp wire edge may damage the wire gun liner - particularly softer plastic liners.
Present the filler wire tip to the back of the wire feed rolls and press the Wire Inch button on
the wire feed panel or use the switch inside the wire spool cabinet. Feed the wire to the gun
contact tip and prepare to weld.
NOTE! Smaller diameter filler wires may need to be loaded manually – with the feed roll pressure
arms released. This is because it is easy to overestimate the pressure required to feed these smaller
filler wires. Too high feed roll pressures can easily deform filler wires and contribute to later feeding
problems.
