Then look to see if wire looks straight if not move the u till you get it straight . Keep repeating this till the wire is straight. On the elox/ fanuc wire machines there is a parameter that can be changed to allow you to turn the generator on and spark the wire against the block edge. This can help , you move the axis in question either u or v till you get the sparks to run the length of the wire touching the part. .Be sure your on time is set to 0 or you will damage the part....I do not know what parameter it is for your machine, but it should be in your book....good luck
