Wire Feed Issues

[DanTheAngry]

Hi everyone. I'm new to welding and while setting up the wire in my Lincon MIG I'm having troulbe getting it fed all the way to the torch.
It goes in about 6in and the gets stuck. The Welder has never been used and the wire is not rusty.

Can anyone help me out with this?

then 6inches in side the torch there is a blockage, or the pinch rollers are not tight enough, check the liner inside the torch for damage

Is it a detachable (euro) torch or is it hard-wired into the machine?

There was a blockage. looks like the wire had bunched up the first time I tried to feed it before it went into the torch.

Its all good now. Thanks for the help guys.
