„
The device must not be used as a storage
place and tools or other items must not
be placed on the device.
„
It must be operated in a dry and
well-ventilated working environment.
• Connecting compressed air
PLEASE NOTE!
f
This device is designed for operating
pressure (output pressure at the com-
pressor) of up to 6.3 bar. Please bear in
mind that the pressure can lower while
setting the air pressure. Thus, in a hose
length measuring 10 m and an internal
diameter of 9 mm it drops by approx.
0.6 bar.
The compressed air source must have a filter
and regulator.
„
Connect the compressed air hose
16
on
the back of the plasma cutter
1
to the
compressed air connection
20
. To do so,
insert the side of the compressed air hose
16
without quick connector into the
compressed air connection
20
of the
plasma cutter
1
(see Fig. I).
„
The pressure can be set via the rotary
knob
21
on the condensate separator
(see Fig. I–L). Select a pressure of
4–4.5 bar.
„
In order to release the compressed air
hose
16
, you must press the locking
mechanism of the compressed air
connection
20
and pull out the com-
pressed air hose
16
at the same time
(see Fig. I).
• Connecting the cutting
burner
„
Pull the cover cap
12a
off the plasma
burner connection socket
12
.
„
Insert the plasma burner plug
7
into the
plasma burner connection socket
12
and tighten the union nut hand-tight
(see Fig. A+B).
„
Insert the plasma burner control plug
6
into the plasma burner control socket
10
and tighten the union nut hand-tight
(see Fig. A+B).
• Connecting the earthing
cable
Connect the earthing clamp device plug
5a
with the earthing clamp connection socket
11
. Then connect the earthing clamp plug
5
with the earthing clamp connecting plug
5b
.
Make sure that the connecting shaft is first
connected and then turned. The connecting
shaft of the earthing clamp device plug
5a
must point upwards when plugging in.
After plugging in, the connecting shaft
must be rotated in a clockwise direction
until it reaches the stop, in order to lock
it in place (see Fig. A+B). This does not
require force!
• Using the device
• Operation
1. Set the plasma cutter 1 up in a dry and
well ventilated area.
2. Position the machine in the vicinity of the
workpiece.
3. Press the on/off switch
17
.
4. Clamp the earthing terminal
4
onto the
workpiece to be cut and make sure that
there is a good electrical contact.
5. Set the cutting current on the current
controller
13
. If the arc beam is inter-
rupted the cutting current must be set
higher if necessary. If the electrode burns
through frequently, then the cutting
current must be set lower.
