Before start-up
12 .5 Insert the welding wire spool
Danger to life and limb and fire
hazard due to glowing welding
wire or parts!
Wire excess length of the wire
spool can cause short circuits with
the side panel or bottom of the
unit.
When inserting the welding wire
spool, please pay attention to the
correct winding and make sure that
there are no wire excess lengths.
Set the wire brake in such a way
that the wire spool doesn't con-
tinue running when pressing the
torch key.
 Open side panel and turn the retaining nut
20 off from the wire spool holder 22.
 Place the welding wire reel on the decoiler
mandrel and ensure that the carrier man-
drel 23 locks in position.
 For small welding wire reels, use an adap-
tor (order number 620.9650.0).
 Set the wire brake 21 so that, when the
torch switch is released, the welding wire
spool just does not run on.
