output.

 

 

2.

If the wire drive motor is running

 

 

 

 

 

 

make sure that the correct drive

 

 

 

 

 

 

rolls are installed in the

 

 

 

 

 

 

machine.

 

 

 

 

 

3.

Check for clogged cable liner or

 

 

 

 

 

 

feeding problems.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wire feed speed motor runs very

2.

Idle roll pressure adjustment set

 

 

 

 

 

 

too high. Check adjustment of

 

 

 

 

 

 

the idle roll pressure. See "Wire

3.

Damaged or poorly maintained

 

 

 

 

 

 

wire feed system.

 

 

 

 

 

1.

Check for clogged or damaged

 

 

 

 

 

 

cable liner, contact tip, and guide

 

 

 

 

 

 

tubes. Replace any damaged or

 

 

 

 

 

 

excessively worn parts.

 

 

 

 

 

2. Perform "ROUTINE AND
