MAINTENANCE

5. Seat Liner bushing into back of gun. Secure Liner

by tightening set screw. Do not install the gas dif-
fuser at this time.

6. Lay the cable straight and trim Liner to 9/16”.

Remove burrs.

7. Secure the gas diffuser into the tube.

8. Tighten the set screw against the Liner.

This screw should only be gently tightened. Over
tightening will split or collapse the liner and cause
poor wire feeding.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Excessive pressure at the start may cause the dirt
to form a plug.

Flex the cable over its entire length and again blow
out the cable. Repeat this procedure until no further
dirt comes out. If this has been done and feed prob-
lems are experienced, try liner replacement, and refer
to trouble shooting section on rough wire feeding.

(SEE FIGURE D.1)

LINER REMOVAL, INSTALLATION AND TRIMMING
INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAGNUM 300

NOTE: The variation in cable lengths prevents the
interchangeability of liners between guns. Once a liner
has been cut for a particular gun, it should not be
installed in another gun unless it can meet the liner
cutoff length requirement. Liners are shipped with the
jacket of the liner extended the proper amount.

1. Remove the gas nozzle.

2. Remove the gas diffuser from the gun tube. If gas

diffuser contains a small set screw, loosen the set
screw.

3. Lay gun and cable out straight on a flat surface.

Loosen set screw of the connector on the back end
of the gun.

4. Insert the untrimmed Liner into the back end of the

gun.
