CAUTION
●
Never attempt to disassemble the feed motor. This may result in damage to the wire feeder.
●
Never check the amount of brushing friction or replace the brush.
Service life of the brush varies depending on ambient temperature, etc., but normally the service life is
about 4,000 hours. (If the machine is operated for six hours a day, the service life of the brush will be
about two years). Periodical replacement of the feed motor is recommended.
