Assembly: GSFR* Wheels to SFR
1. Insert the Intermediate Nozzle until its collar
rests against the housing and tighten the
screw.
2. Assemble the Guide Wheel and tighten
the screw. Attention: Always use the correct
wheel set for each wire thickness.
3. Assemble the Blade first, then mount the
Blade Clamp onto the same axis and tighten
the screw. Caution: handle the blade carefully
to avoid injury.
4. Insert the Inlet Nozzle into the hole and
tighten the screw.

If mounting SFR independently from TRA, the Electrical Insulator is required.
Assemble the Insulator to your device with the screws (ref. 092890), and then the SFR to the Isolator
with its screws (ref. 0014954).
The Electrical Insulator must be assembled to ensure a that the SFR work properly.
*Not included, sold separately
Do not use the SFR without insulator if it is mounted without the TRA.

Solder Wire Loading
The GSFR must be assembled previously.
1. Feed the Solder Wire into the Inlet Nozzle until it reaches the wheels.
2. Make sure the wire passes through the Intermediate Nozzle and enters into the Guide Tube.
Important: Set the wire thickness parameter before starting to dispense wire. To set W-THI Code
see the Communication Protocol for SFR unit at www.jbctools.com/jbcsoftware.html.
Wire feeding is controlled by an external controller (Robot/PLC/Computer). See the Communication
Protocol for SFR unit at www.jbctools.com/jbcsoftware.html
