ACCESSORIES AND CONSUMABLES
Accessories
Consumables
Regularly check the wear condition of the protective tip, nozzle and electrode or in case of significant reduce of the
cutting speed.
It is advised to replace at the same time the nozzle and the electrode.
Tip (ref. 040182 : plasma cutter 20 A / ref.040236 : plasma cutter 30 A)
Replace if cracked or damaged.
Nozzle (ref.040151 plasma cutter 20 A / ref.040212 : plasma cutter 30 A)
Clean if the inside of the nozzle is blocked or dirty.
Replace if the opening is deformed or if the size of the orifice has half increased.
Diffuser (ref.040175 : plasma cutter 20 A or cutter 30 A)
Replace if lateral orifices are bolcked.
Electrode (ref.040168: plasma cutter 20 A or cutter 30 A)
To replace: if a significant cavity appears at the electrode center.

The machine delivers no power.
The green working indicator is on.
The thermal protection indicator is
continuously on.
The thermal protection of
the welding unit is on.
Wait until the end of the cooling phase.
The machine delivers no power.
The green working indicator is on.
The thermal protection ondicator
blinks 2 times then lights off.
The input voltage is higher
than 230V + 15% for plasma
cutter 20 A, 85-265V for
plasma cutter 30 A
Check your electrical network or your
electric generator then switch off and on
your machine.
Torch defect.
Check your torch assembly.
The machine delivers no power.
The green working indicator is on.
The thermal protection indicator
blinks quickly.
Air supply too weak.
Increase the air pressure, then switch off
and on your machine.
By pressing the trigger, the air flows
but the pilot arc is not working.
Consumables shabby.
Check and change the consumables, then
switch off and on your machine.
The electrical arc switches off after
about 3 seconds.
Earth problem.
Check the earth clamp is well connected to
a clean area (not painted and not fat) of
the part to cut.
If you feel tingling sensation, when
the unit is on and you put your hand
on the welding unit’s body.
The welding unit is not
correctly connected to the
earth.
Check the plug and the earth of your
electrical network.
Plasma cutter 30 A : After having
switched off the plasma (position
« O »), the ventilator and the
compressed air continues to run.
Torch Cooling phase.
Normal behaviour of the machine, wait for
the end of the cooling phase (+/-15 sec).
