Wire feed pressure

Start by making sure that the wire moves smoothly through the wire guide. Then
set the pressure of the wire feeder's pressure rollers. It is important that the
pressure is not too great.
Fig 1
To check that the feed pressure is set correctly, you can feed out the wire against
an insolated object, e.g. a piece of wood.
When you hold the gun approx. 0.2" (5 mm) from the piece of wood (fig. 1) the
feed rollers should slip.
If you hold the gun approx. 2" (50 mm) from the piece of wood, the wire should be
fed out and bend (fig. 2).
