Installation Instructions - Campbell Hausfeld DW3130 Mode D'emploi

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Location
Selecting the proper location can significantly increase performance, reliability and life of the arc welder.
• For best results locate welder in a clean and dry environment. Dust and dirt in the welder retain
moisture and increase wear of moving parts.
• Place welder in an area with at least twelve inches (30,48 cm) of ventilation space at both the front and
rear of unit. Keep all obstructions out of this ventilation space.
• Store welding wire in a clean, dry location with low humidity to prevent oxidation.
• Use a properly grounded receptacle for the welder and ensure welder is the only load on power supply
circuit. Refer to chart on page 7 for correct circuit capacity.
• Use of an extension cord is not recommended for electric arc welding machines. Voltage drop in the
extension cord may significantly degrade performance of the welder.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
WIRE INSTALLATION
NOTE: Before installing welding wire, be sure:
a. Diameter of welding wire matches
groove in drive roller on wire feed
mechanism (See Figure 2).
b. Wire matches contact tip in end of
torch (See Figure 3).
A mismatch on any item could cause the wire
to slip and/or bind.
NOTE: Always maintain control of loose end
of welding wire to prevent unspooling.
1. Verify unit is off and open door panel to
expose wire feed mechanism.
2. Remove the spool lock by pushing in and
rotating 1/4 turn counterclockwise. Then
remove lock, spring and retainer.
3. Flip tensioning knob down and swing
arm up on drive mechanism. This allows
initial feeding of wire into torch liner by
hand.
4. Install wire spool onto spindle so wire
can come off bottom of spool. Do not cut
the wire loose yet. Install retainer, spring
and lock by pushing in and turning lock
1/4 rotation clockwise.
5. Hold wire and cut the wire end from
spool. Do not allow wire to unravel. Be
sure end of wire is straight and free of
burrs.
6. Feed wire through wire guide, over the
groove in drive roller and into torch wire
liner. Flip swing arm down and tension
knob up. Adjust tension by rotating
tension knob.
7. Unscrew nozzle and contact tip from
end of welding torch (See Figure 3).
Plug welder into a proper power supply
receptacle.
