Note: If TOO MUCH tension is applied to the wire spool, the wire will slip on the drive roller or will not be able to feed at all. If TOO LITTLE tension is applied, the spool of wire will want to unspool itself. Readjust the drive Right Way brake tension as necessary to correct for either problem. 7.
