B. Common Spool Problems
The wire on the spool may become damaged when not properly
handled. In this section there are examples of common issues you may
see on a spool.
Cutting Wire
When part of the spool of wire is damaged, it must be removed using the
wire cutters provide. They are located on the inside of the element feeder
door. When cutting the wire, cut the wire in the center of the larger loop
as shown below. Excess paper can then be removed, leaving 12 inches
(30 cm) past the new end of the wire.
Stretched Wire
Wire can become stretched when installing or removing a spool from the
machine, it may also become stretched due to wire jams. If any length
of wire is stretched like shown below, use the wire cutters provided to
cut that section off. Wire is considered stretched if the loops are no
longer parallel to each other. The wire outlined in red is an example of
stretched wire.
Crushed Wire
Wire can become crushed when the spool is miss handled. Below is an
example of a crushed length of wire. Crushed wire must be cut off and
discarded.
Tangled Wire
If the spool is stored without the wire properly secured with the magnet
strips, the wire may become entangled. This can be fixed by carefully
separating the entangled rows. Once untangled, check that no other
damage is present before using this spool.
Loose Element
The StreamWire will prompt the user to clear extra elements from 3b
after a stoppage occurs. If this is not done the element may fall into the
element feeder area and cause a wire jam to occur. The wire could fall
on top of the spool as shown below. If this occurs, carefully remove the
loose element and check the spool for damage.
The wire may fall to the bottom of the element drawer. If this occurs
remove the wire and check for a double loop as discussed in this section.
