2.

Check to see that the spindle

should be an aluminum spacer

 

 

behind the spindle brake. Refer

 

 

to the push-pull connection kit for

 

 

this spacer.

 

3.

Check the wire at the spool.

 

 

Make sure wire is not crossed

 

 

and is de-reeling properly.

 

4.

Increase wire feed speed to 350-

 

 

400 ipm.

If all recommended possible areas of misadjustment have been checked and the problem persists,

Contact your local Lincoln Authorized Field Service Facility.

5. Clean or replace contact tip.

CAUTION

If for any reason you do not understand the test procedures or are unable to perform the tests/repairs safely, contact your Local Lincoln Authorized Field Service Facility for technical troubleshooting assistance before you proceed.
