6.1 Connection and control devices - front panel

6.2 PT - 31 Torch and XT Consumables

When assembling or replacing XT consumables, make sure power switch

on power source is in OFF position and primary input power is deenergized.

The PT-31 torch of Handy Plasma is originally assembled and tested.

The PT-31 XL torch head contains a gas flow check valve that acts in

conjuction with the flow switch and circuitry within the power source. This

system prevents the torch from being energized with high voltage if the torch

switch accidentally closed when the shield is removed. ALWAYS REPLACE

TORCH WITH THE PROPER TORCH MANUFACTURED BY ESAB SINCE IT

ALONE CONTAINS ESABS PATENTED SAFETY INTERLOCK.

6.1.2 Handy Plasma 50 CONTROLS

1. Power Switch.

When placed in On

position, the green light will glow

indicating control circuit is energized and

the cooling fan will run.

2 . Output Current Control.

Adjustable

from 25 to 50 amperes to suit cutting

conditions.

3. Air Check Switch.

When pressed,

(ON position), air filter-regulator can be

adjusted to desired pressure before

cutting operations. By keeping it pressed,

allow air flow for a few minutes. This

should remove any condensation that may

have accumulated during shutdown

period.

While flowing, the green LED will light

up.
