TO MOUNT 10 TO 44 lb (4.5 to 20 kg) SPOOLS (12 in./300 mm DIAMETER) OR 13-14 lb (6 kg)

INNERSHIELD COILS:

The spindle should be located in the lower mounting hole of the K1524-1 Universal Stand if used.

[For 8 in. (200 mm) spools, a K468 spindle adapter must first be slipped onto the spindle.]

[For 13 to 14 lb (6 kg) Innershield coils, a K435 Coil Adapter must be used.]

1.Depress the Release Bar on the Retaining Collar and remove it from the spindle. NOTE: Earlier spindles used a threaded collar. See Figure B.5a or B.5b.

2.Place the spool on the spindle, making certain the spindle brake pin enters one of the holes in the backside of the spool. Be certain the wire comes off the reel in a direction so as to de-reel from the bottom of the coil.

3.Re-install the Retaining Collar. Make sure that the Release Bar “pops up” and that the collar retainers fully engage the retaining groove on the spindle.

ELECTRODE FEEDING AND BRAKE ADJUSTMENT

1.Turn the Readi-Reel or spool until the free end of the electrode is accessible.

2.While tightly holding the electrode, cut off the bent end and straighten the first six inches. Cut off the first inch. (If the electrode is not properly straightened, it may not feed or may not go into the outgoing guide tube, causing a “birdnest”.)

3.Insert the free end through the incoming guide tube.

4.Press the cold inch key or gun trigger and push the electrode into the drive roll.

WARNING

ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.

•Do not touch electrically live parts such as output terminals or internal wiring.

•When inching with the gun trigger, electrode and drive mechanism are “hot” to work and ground and could remain “hot” for several seconds after the gun trigger is released.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

5.Inch the electrode through the gun.

6.Adjust the brake tension with the thumbscrew on the spindle hub until the reel turns freely but with little or no overrun when wire feeding is stopped. Do not overtighten.
