Safety Precautions 

 

Read entire section before starting installation 

 

WARNING! 

 

 

Electric Shock can kill – Only qualified personnel should perform this installation. Turn off input power at 

the fuse box before working on this equipment.

  

Do not touch electrically live parts. Always connect the 

machine to an earthed mains supply as per national recommended standards. 

 

 

 

 

Select suitable location 

 

Place the plasma cutter where clean cooling air can freely circulate in and out of the front & rear louver 

vents. Dirt, dust or any foreign material that can be drawn through vents into plasma cutter must be kept 

to a minimum. Failure to observe these precautions can result in excessive operating temperatures which 

can lead to plant failure. 

 

Grinding 

 

Do not direct grinding particles towards the plasma cutter. An abundance of conductive material can 

cause plant failure. 

 

Stacking 

 

This machine cannot be stacked. 

 

Transport – Unloading 

 

Never underestimate the weight of equipment, never move or leave suspended in the air above people. 

Use recommended lifting equipment at all times. 

 

WARNING! 

 

Falling Equipment can cause injury. Never lift plasma cutter with gas bottle attached. Never lift above 

personnel. 

 

 

 

 

Tilting 

 

Machine must be placed on a secure level surface or on a recommended undercarriage/trolley. This 

machine may topple over if this procedure is not followed. 

 

Environmental Rating 

 

The plasma power source carries the IP21S rating. It may be used in normal industrial and commercial 

environments. Avoid using in areas where water / rain is around.
