Mount the torch
The machine torches can be mounted on a wide variety of X-Y tables, track burners, pipe bevelers, and other equipment.
Install the torch per the manufacturer’s instructions. Use the following procedure to disassemble and reassemble the
torch if you need to do so in order to route the torch through the cutting table’s track or other mounting system.
