damage. Replace the torch leads if damage is found.
Torch
1. Remove all consumables from the torch and verify that the anode-cathode
insulator (brown plastic) is in good condition, with no signs of arcing.
2. Check all consumables and discard any damaged items.
3. Verify that the electrode seat is clean to insure proper electrical contact.
4. Reassemble the electrode, swirl ring, and nozzle and install them in the torch.
5. Make sure that the retaining cap is hand tight and all parts are seated properly.
Work Ground
1. Using an ohmmeter, measure zero ohms between the power supply Work
Ground connection on the I/O p.c. board and the star ground point on the
cutting table. The star ground connection should be kept clean and free from
oxidation or corrosion. Use a wire brush to clean the connection point if
necessary.
Gas Supply
1. Check for signs of contamination in the gas supply lines and replace any
filters as necessary. The SR-100i requires clean, dry, oil-free compressed air
for good cut quality, as well as long consumable life.
2. Listen for gas leaks in the supply lines and in the internal plumbing system of
the SR-100i. Tighten any connections that are leaking. Leaks in the supply
can cause poor cut quality, as well as torch overheating.
