MIG-160ERS
WELDING WIRE INSTALATION
- Open the door on the side of the device, move the star knob towards you and lift the lid of the clamping
system.
- Make sure that, depending on the welding wire diameter, the appropriate wire feed roller (e.g. 0.8mm,
1,0mm, etc.) is in the wire feed system (the wire feed roller side with the correct mm specification must
point towards the wire feed).
- Unscrew the screw of the wire locating pin, place the corresponding welding wire on the wire locating
pin and retighten the screw (The welding wire must be positioned so that it enters the wire feeder from
its lower part.)
- Guide the welding wire into the right opening of the wire feeder, over the wire feed roller into the left
opening of the wire feeder.
- Close the cover of the clamping system and move the star grip away from you so that the cover is
locked. Adjust the tensioner with the star grip (e.g., with 0,9 mm wire to 3.5). Do not turn the tensioner
past value 5!
- The next step is to turn on the unit, make sure the torch cord is straight and remove the nozzle and
nozzle assembly from the gun.
- You can then pull the wire to the torch nozzle either with the button on the torch or with the "Fast Wire
Drive" button. After the wire comes out of the gun, reattach the nozzle and nozzle assembly to the gun.
