mOunting OF mig welding gun
In order to ensure trouble-free welding check in operation instructions of gun used by you
that wire guide tube and contact tip of gun are according to manufacturer´s recommendation
suitable to be used for wire feed diameter and type in question. Too tight a wire guide tube
might cause for wire feeder unit a bigger stress than normally as well as disturbances in wire
feed.
Screw snap connector of gun tight that there won´t come any voltage losses on connecting
surface.
A loose connection will heat gun and wire feeder unit.
NOTE!
Make sure that the welding gun in your use is designed for max. welding current needed by
you! Never use a damaged welding gun!
