COURSE OF ACTION
The feeder does power up but there
is no wire feed.
Inconsistent wire feeding or wire not
feeding but drive rolls turning.
1. The control cable may be loose
or damaged. Tighten, repair or
replace the control cable.
2. Check for the proper command
information from the customer
supplied user interface.
1. The electrode is rusty or dirty.
Use only clean electrode. Use
quality electrode, like L-50 or L-
56 from Lincoln Electric.
2. The contact tip is partially melted
or has spatter. Replace the con-
tact tip.
3. Improper tip, drive rolls and/or
inner wire guide. Verify the prop-
er parts are installed.

the drive rolls. Adjust the tension
arm per the Instruction Manual.
Most electrodes feed well at a
tension arm setting of "3".

drive rolls if worn or filled with
dirt.

misadjustment have been checked
and the problem persists, Contact
