    • Ensure the cable is completely retracted into the auto-feeder.

    • Twist the guide spring counter-clockwise to unscrew it from the auto-feeder.

    • Push the top control finger up as far as possible.

    • This disengages the top feeder assembly and allows the cable to freely move through the feeder. The finger may fall back down on its own and restrict cable movement. If this occurs, simply push the finger back up.
