Hi Larry,
I recall when reading my Lincoln manual (insert chuckle here.. guy reads manual 'news at 11'..) That the recommendation for the spool gun comes from a performance standpoint, whereas the rollers have a tough time pushing the ally through the hose w/o often damaging the wire and fouling the arc performance. The ally setup kit for it has a new liner for your torch hose (as Nick mentioned) and ally rollers. What are you welding by the way... that's another bag o' worms.

Mike.
