1.Turn the reel or spool until the free end of the elec- trode is accessible.

2.While tightly holding the electrode, cut off the bent end and straighten the first 6" (15 cm). Cut off the first 1" (2.5 cm). If the electrode is not properly straightened, it may not feed or may jam.

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

4.Press the Cold Feed switch and push the electrode into the drive roll.

5.Feed 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 the wire feeding stops. Do not overtighten.
