Regardless of a kind of the wire, select the feed roller according to the wire diameter. When
the flux contained wire is used, it is necessary to adjust the wire pressurization force slightly
weaker than the solid wire. There are many kinds of flux contained wire and may require
delicately different pressurization forces, depending on their brands or manufacturing methods.
Care should be taken when adjusting the wire pressurization force.
