CONNECTING THE MODEL 10250 TO A CV MIG MACHINE

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
RWII Preventative Maintenance Recommendations:
1.) Keep grinding grit from getting into the RWII gun. Do not lay the RWII down on dirty or gritty surfaces and set the gun down as far away from grinding activities and grit sources as possible.
2.) Proper Lubrication of moving parts is essential to long life. We recommend the use of “Castrol Syntec” brand fully synthetic motor oil for all the lubrication needs of the RWII. Be aware, use of petroleum based lubricants can adversely affect the gun body and gas valve action.
3.) Regularly blow gun clean with compressed air or gas.
Battery Maintenance: To maximize the life of lead-acid, deep cycle batteries, always check the fluid level at least once a week and keep the level full. Recharge at 20 amp or lower settings and stop charging when the batteries reach full charge as excessive charging will boil and damage the batteries. Always keep the batteries fully charged between uses and the use of “Battery Tender” devices is recommended.
Replacing Tip Assembly Components: With use the welding tips will need to be replaced intermittently. Recommended replacement tips are standard #2 Tweco tips or compatible. Dedicated tips should be used when welding various types of metal (i.e., do not use the same tip for welding aluminum and steel). When welding aluminum, be sure to use a contact tip which is .005” larger than the feed wire itself.
CAUTION: REMEMBER TO LET THE GUN COOL DOWN BEFORE REPLACING TIPS!
