CAUTION
Risk of injury
• Prior to each cutting process, check your personal protective equipment.
NOTICE
• All necessary parameters (such as the cutting current, soft start,
compressed air, etc.) must be set on the power source in accordance with
the cutting operation.
• Information and tips on the direct cutting process (technique, procedure,
materials, plasma...) can be found in the relevant technical literature and
not in these operating instructions.
NOTICE
• As the
PSB
cutting torches are integrated into a cutting system, the
operating instructions of the welding components, such as the power
source, must be observed.
• The trigger’s two-cycle mode can be activated when using the
PSB
manual cutting torch.
NOTICE
• The plasma pilot arc is struck by high-frequency pulses when the trigger
(on the manual torch) is actuated and after a gas pre-flow time.
Exception: PSB 31 equipped with KZS or KKS
• When starting the initial arc (via the soft start device), the cutting nozzle
must not touch the workpiece.
• Use the accessories for an optimum cutting nozzle distance from the
workpiece.
• The cutting arc is ignited on the workpiece. The cutting jet is interrupted
when contact to the workpiece is discontinued or the control voltage is
interrupted using the trigger.
• Please observe the required gas post-flow time for cooling the torch.
