Wire feed setup

[byron123z]

Hi all, I am just setting up my welder doing the Euro torch conversion on a old Cebora 130. Does anyone have any pictures of how close to the wire feed motor drive wheel you should place the Euro adapter. The old Cebora wire feed was broken so I don't know what a good wire feed spaceing is
Thank

Probably as close as possible. The length between the drive roller and liner is where the wire can kink and "bird nest" if driven while blocked at nozzle and if it doesn't slip. Roller pressure should be just enough to ensure constant drive, while sleeping if jammed. That length should be really small.

Thank you will move the wire feeder as close as possible, I tried looking for a picture of what a good wire feeder setup should be but could not find anything
