The Python

®

 maintains a constant, steady, uniform wire feed speed, 

regardless of curved or looped wire conduit.  The constant push exerted 

by the slave motor in the cabinet, combined with the pull of the gun motor, 

causes the wire to literally float friction-free through the wire conduit.  The 

24VDC gun motor is controlled by a three and three-quarter (3 3/4) turn 

potentiometer in the gun handle.

Potentiometer
The laterally-positioned potentiometer is located in the lower end of the 

handle, providing  up to 875 ipm (22.2 mpm) with 3 3/4 turns.
Micro Switch
The micro switch assembly consists of a normally open micro switch and 
solder-attached leads. 
Trigger Sensitivity 
The amount of trigger level travel can be 

shortened for a quicker or more responsive 
action. 
A more sensitive trigger lever is produced by 

reducing the gap between the trigger lever and 

the micro switch lever. By turning-in the trigger 

sensitivity adjustment screw, it closed the gap 

between the trigger lever and the micro switch 

lever.
This will enable the operator to increase the 

sensitivity of the trigger lever. 
Sensitivity Adjustment
With the wire feeder turned on (with or without 

welding wire loaded), turn the screw in until 

the micro-switch is activated. Once activated, 

the gun and wire feeder motors will begin feeding wire. Retract the screw 

accordingly until the system is deactivated and adjusted to the operators' 

liking.

The Millermatic Compatible™ Python

®

 comes standard with a knurled drive 

roll and a grooved idler roll, which will handle both steel and aluminum wire 

with diameters from .030-1/16 inch aluminum and .030-.045 solid and hard 

wire. Optional insulated V-groove drive rolls are also available for aluminum 

wire if desired (see optional kits).
Drive roll tension is accomplished with a unique spring-loaded pressure 

screw.  The Python

®

 comes from the factory with the pressure adjustment 

screw preset.
