im having trouble placing the wire so i can pull through an cut at the same time, wire slides off the wheels

Adjust the side wheels to tighten up the wire. It may take a few times but will work.

I'm not sure if your question has already been answered but I'll try to help anyway. The way I do it is first I adjust the screws on the sides to the gauge wire im stripping by test fitting the wire into the unit. (You should not have gaps where the wire can slide off). Second I manually strip off an end off the wire im stripping usually about 4 - 6in. Lastly I gently pull the wire thru, as im doing so im watching the blade to make sure the insulation on the wire being scored is on center. After doing this you should be able to remove insulation by hand with little effort.

Strip off about an inch of insulation. Slip wire under blade and adjust the side rollers till the wire is center of blade and rollers move easily. Move bottom roller up to the side rollers about 1/8 (or less) from touching. Now bring the blade down to the insulation. I use channel locks to grip the wire. Bring the bottom roller up to set blade and pull with the channel locks. Do not set so the blade is to deep or it will not pull and could dull your blade if dragging on metal.

First remove the old wire. Twist the handle of the cheese slicer until it comes free. Remove the old wire. The slicer arm should now slide out of the end of the cutter. Place one end of the wire in the groove so that the arm will pass through the loop. Put threaded end of the handle through the other loop and the wire in the groove of the round end that the handle screws into. I placed it on the bottom part of the round object then tightened turned the handle to tighten it. Next I screwed the handle tight against the metal arm. There should be good tension on the wire so that it makes smooth and clean cuts.

It's not easy! I squeeze the prongs that just stick out of the middle of the wheel together while easing the rim of the wheel away from the base trying to keep the pressure even to avoid breaking off one of the prongs. I have broken about half my wheels, but it seems to work just fine with one prong (and actually it becomes easier to take apart then).

You can flip over the any piece of track and attach the wires to the inner and middle rails. You sort of bend up a clip, then insert the bare end of a wire, and press the clip back down. Put a piece of tape on it to keep it in place. It is not that hard to do. Good luck.

Get a tape push it on the tape holder behind the cutter it should be sticky side down and pull and go under a metal holder to cutter

One end of your cloths line gets tied to the wire part. Then the wire goes around one wheel circles back around to your second wheel and then the wire goes through the hole. Pull wire tight and the tightener will hold it when you let go.

You loosen the screw. Then insert the wire under the little metal plate. Then tighten the screw to smoosh the wire into place. The wire should be snug enough that you can't pull it out after the screw is tighten.

Make sure the wire is crimped correctly.. No slack or parts of it sticking out of the crimp. Make sure thr pin is pushed all the way into the connector. There should be a noticeable "click" (you may not hear it but should feel it click into place.) if it doesn't seat properly, pull out the pin and rotate it a bit... 1/4 turn... And reinsert it. That should work.

try pushing the wheels in tighter; they're supposed to snap in. you need to use some strength. put some elbow grease into it man.

Try adjusting the tension piece that is attached to the pull lever. Sometimes it needs a little adjusting to pull the wire to start theotor

I think this product is crappy. Mine did not work, and I even had an electrician try. However, to your question, I had a hard time getting the wheel off the prong, as well. I wound up just having to really pull hard. Might be worth trying a little WD 40, being careful not to let any leak back into the box.

Hi, I held mine by the wheel tightly and loosely gripped the body and mine slipped right apart. Try twisting it first to get it loose. Thanks!

I had the same problem it has a lot of tension on it. I had to loosen everything that was connected to this wire before it was able to be fit into it's position. If you study it long enough you will see what to do.

You actually guide the wire how you want it cut. I made a pattern, drew the pattern on the Styrofoam and didn't have any issues. Hope this helps. Just another tip...don't tighten down the wire too tight then try to force the cut. Speaking from experience!

If you don't cut it, you'll have an awkward turn, it's not really made for turns. If I were you, I'd cut it and solder a small piece of low voltage wire to connect the two halves.

Try switching your positive and negative wires, reverse em. I also immediately noticed you can weld with a bigger rod than they say with ease
