| 3. | Install and load the filler wire as described in Installing and replacing filler wire and wire spool. |
| 4. | Check the gas flow. Refer to Installing gas bottle and testing gas flow for more information. |
| 5. | Connect the earth return cable to the power source's connector (-) in the front. |
