a percentage of a 10 minute period. The cutting unit must cool for
the remainder of the cycle. This cutting unit has a duty cycle
rating of 30% at the rated output (see Specifications). This means
that the user can cut for 3 minutes and then rest the welding unit
for 7 minutes before using it again.
THERMAL PROTECTION
Constantly exceeding the duty cycle can damage the cutting unit.
An internal thermal protector will open when the duty cycle is
exceeded, shutting OFF all cutting unit functions except the
cooling fan. Leave the cutting unit turned ON with the fan
running. The thermal protector will automatically reset and the
cutting unit will function normally again once it has cooled.
Wait at least another 10 minutes after the thermal protector
opens before resuming cutting. Starting before this additional
time may result in a shortened duty cycle
