A - SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTROMECHANICAL EQUIPMENT USED AS THE SUBASSEMBLY OF AN
INSTALLATION.
This equipment can be associated with a
welding installation, in which case it is covered by
safety instructions described in the instructions for the
welding installation
If this equipment is used in other cases, a
minimum of instructions must be respected, in
particular :
1 - SERVICING
Check often that the insulation and connections of
the electrical equipment and accessories are in
good condition: plugs, cables, flexible cables,
sheaths, connectors, extension cables, workpiece
clamps, electrode holders or torches...
Maintenance and repair work on insulating
sheaths and covers should never be carried out in
a makeshift manner.
Have defective accessories repaired by a
specialist or, better still, replace them.
Periodically check that electrical connections are
properly tightened and do not overheat.
2 - PERSONAL PROTECTION
RISK OF EXTERNAL INJURY
The operator must be properly dressed and
protected for the work he is carrying out
Ensure that no part of the operator's body or of his
assistant's body can come in contact with metal
parts and workpieces which are energized or
which could accidentally become energized
and/or which are moving.
Do not wrap electrical cables around your body.

C - STARTING UP
1 - INSTALLING THE REEL HOLDER
The DIX WD 300 and reel holder are assembled with the help of the DIX WDV 100 connecting kit
Connecting kit
Installing the reel
Drive pin
When you put in place the wire reel, make sure that the
reel drive hole rests on the core drive pin.
Adjusting the reel brake
The reel core has a braking screw, which must be adjusted so that the reel of wire stops moving when it is stopped.
Female 5-mm hex key.
Protect the brake from
impurities!
Applying the brake excessively will stop continuous feeding (movement in jolts), with a risk of overloading the drive
motor.
If the braking force is not sufficient, the stopped wire reel could continue to turn due to inertia and the wire may get
entangled or come off.
Use a female 5-mm hex
key.
