Installing and replacing wire liner

The 3.5 m and 5 m Flexlite GXe welding torches are delivered with the wire liner preinstalled. The user must install the wire liner to the 6 m and 8 m Flexlite GXe welding torches. Refer to this section when the wire liner needs to be replaced or when taking a 6 m or 8 m Flexlite GXe welding torch model in use.

The wire liner is a consumable part, which needs to be changed if worn and when the filler wire material changes.

For replacing the steel wire liner, refer to Replacing steel wire liner.

For replacing the DL Chili wire liner, refer to Replacing DL Chili wire liner.

If you change the filler wire to a different diameter or material, change also the feed rolls in the wire feed system accordingly.

With most of the 3.5 m and 5 m Flexlite GXe welding torch models both steel wire liner and DL Chili wire liner can be used. With the 6 m and 8 m Flexlite GXe welding torch models the DL Chili wire liner is recommended to be used.

The filler wire must be removed before the wire liner replacement. Always read the instructions delivered with the replacement wire liner as well.
