INSERTING THE WIRE SPOOL AND POINTS TO CONSIDER

• Shut down the power of the machine.
• Remove the wire spool from its packaging.
• Unscrew the wire spool lock nut.
• Place the wire spool onto the adapter.
• Make sure that the brake pin on the S300 model spools is located in the hole on the spool . Optional adapters may be required for use with different types of spools (B300-S200, etc.). Contact the authorized service.
• Visually check and make sure that the wire spool is fully placed on the adapter.
• Reinsert the lock nut and make sure it is tightened.

WIRE SPOOL ADJUSTING THE BRAKE

• Wire spool housing system is equipped with a brake mechanism to prevent the spool from rotating except when needed during use. The brake adjustment should be done in a strict manner to prevent undesired rotation of the wire spool when the wire feeding motor stops, but to not prevent the spool from rotating when the wire feeding motor is feeding the wire.
• Brake adjustment is performed by tightening the screw on the inside of the wire spool adapter.
• If the wire brake adjustment is too tight, the wire motor will be strained and irregular wire feeding problems will be encountered.
• If the wire brake adjustment is too loose, the spool will continue to rotate even though the wire feeding motor stops when the welding operation is finished as braking will be insufficient.

WIRE ROLLER SELECTION AND POINTS TO CONSIDER

• Wire rollers should be selected according to the wire diameter and wire type used. Failure to select the correct rollers can cause problems such as wire deformation, as well as directly affect the wire feeding performance.
• Suitable wire diameters are also made more prominent by using color codes as indicated on the wire rollers.

CHANGING THE ROLLER AND TENSION ADJUSTMENT

Changing The Roller

• The machine’s power must be shut down before changing the roller.
• Move the tension arms to the free position 1.
• Remove the roller set screws 2.
• Remove the installed roller 3.
• Insert the new rollers with the wire diameter number facing outward 4.
• Reinsert the roller set screws 5.
• Lock the tension arms 6.
• Replacing Wire Roller (RS SERIES)
• Replacing Wire Roller (ID SERIES).
• Inserting Wire Roller (RS SERIES)
• Inserting Wire Roller (ID SERIES)

Set The Contact Pressure

• Tension adjustment refers to the force applied by wire rollers on the welding wire.
• Tension adjustment is increased by turning the adjusting nut clockwise, and decreased by turning the adjusting nut counterclockwise.
• Firstly, loosen the tension adjustment.
• By pressing the free wire feeding button, activate the wire feeding motor.
• When the wire feeding motor is running, begin to tighten the tension adjustment gradually.
• Increase the tension until the rollers begin to feed the wire without interruption.
• After the point at which the rollers start to feed the wire, optimal adjustment can be achieved by tightening the tension one more round.
• Tension adjustment should be in such a way as to force slightly when you want to stop the wire with your hand as the wire exits the end of the torch.
• If the tension setting is too low, the wire will slip through the rollers and irregular wire output will occur.
• If the tension setting is too high, the rollers will crush the wire and deform it. The deformed wire will cause problems when moving in the torch and exiting from the contact tip.
