No guide on the door, below are a get you in the ball park suggested heat and wire speed settings.
Notice there are 4 boxes separated with bold black lines.. with 3 rows each. The bold boxes contain feed wire type and size of same.
The top box ER70s-6 STEEL wire Gas mixture 75% Ar / 25% CO2
3 lines those are the wire sizes
line#1....024
line#2....030
line#3....035
Second box ER70s-6 STEEL wire Gas Mixture 100% CO2 (same wire type but welds hotter, faster feed speed)
3 lines those are the wire sizes
line#1....024
line#2....030
line#3....035
Third box FLUX CORE
line#1.......030
line#2.......035
Forth box Stainless
leaving that blank, for now
left number is heat / right number wire feed speed
Too set the feed rollers, miller suggest holding the torch at a piece of wood and pull the trigger. Tighten the force of the pinch so that the wire will curl when it meets the board, picture #9
Could the drag on the wire spool be to tight, and the wire is hesitating at the beginning. You should have instant wire feed pulling on the trigger.
I could not for the life of me figure out what kind of a milling table you were talking about... I now can see grasshopper
Welds look cold, do not seem to wet out.. The lumps can be cause two ways, welding speed to slow across the joint, wire feed to fast, just some hints what to look for.
When you practice, pay close attention to the welding puddle, you will see a red hot puddle, almost bubble like. It should start to flow outward, wetting.
Welding reminds me of soldering, you heat the wire, the lead flows in and around, wetting the joint with solder. With a welder that is instant.
Cheers
