drive system. The drive roll has a groove to match the
specific wire type and diameter. Refer to Table B.1 for
available drive rolls.
b. Inner & Outer Wire Guide – Guides the wire between the Top
and Bottom Drive Roll and through the wire drive. The inner
guide has a groove to match a particular wire diameter.
Refer to Table B.1 for available wire guides.
c. Drive Roll Tension Thumbscrew – Turning clockwise
increases the force on the drive rolls and turning counter-
clockwise decreases the force.
12. SPOOL GUN SWITCH - Pre-Installed switch permits either
spool gun welding with the Magnum 100SG or standard
welding with the Magnum PRO 100L.
