Tighten the torch pressure adjusting knob so the wire will be picked up and fed through the contact tip. Proper tension is achieved when wire does not slip if a small amount of pressure is added to the wire as it exits the tip. 6.3 PRE-SETTING SLAVE MOTOR TENSION All Cobramatics have preset adjusting nuts which enables spools of the same wire diameter and type to be changed without further pressure adjustment after initial set-up. To preset the slave motor tension bottom out the pressure adjus
