D
Reduce amperage (thickness) or reduce duty
cycle before starting to cut again.
EXPLODING HYDROGEN hazard.
D
When cutting aluminum underwater or with the
water touching the underside of the aluminum,
free hydrogen gas may collect under the work-
piece.
D
See your cutting engineer and water table instructions for help.
FALLING UNIT can cause injury.
D
Use lifting eye to lift unit only, NOT running
gear, gas cylinders, or any other accessories.
D

sensitive electronic equipment such as
computers and computer-driven equipment
such as robots.
D
To reduce possible interference, keep cables as short as possible,
close together, and down low, such as on the floor.
D
Locate cutting operation 100 meters from any sensitive electronic
equipment.
D
Be sure this cutting power source is installed and grounded
according to this manual.
D
If interference still occurs, the user must take extra measures such
as moving the machine, using shielded cables, using line filters, or
shielding the work area.
