6.Feed and guide the spool wire into the wire feed mechanism, and into the small tube just past the feed wheels (Figure 8). Continue to guide the wire until comes out of the control tip on the torch assembly.

Note: It will help if the welding torch cable is straightened out as much as possible. Push in until the wire comes out the welding torch head. If it cannot be fed manually all the way out, it can be fed automatically when the welding unit is powered up.
