7.3- INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
1- Ensure that the work environment and your clothing satisfy the safety
requirements described in SECTION 6 .
2- Position the generator in a place where there is no obstacle to air circulation.
3- Connect the THOR to a suitable power socket (an earthed socket is
obligatory).
4 - Connect the compressed air pipe to the air filter on the rear panel.
5- Ensure that there is no water in the filter. If necessary, empty the filter.
For the instructions below , refer to the details given on page 14:
- With the potentiometer for regulating the output current (7) , set a suitable value
for the thickness that is to be cut, in agreement with the line capacity.
- Turn the switch on the front panel
(9) .
- the green Led (1) will light up (machine live).
- the yellow Led (2) will light up to indicate the presence of compressed air in the
air circuit.
- The red Led
(4) is lit;
ATTENTION press the RESET button
- The red Led switches off (4)
- When the yellow Led (3) is off it means that the THOR working temperature is
within normal values.
- With the TEST GAS button
(7) check that the pressure of the compressed air
has been correctly set.
- Connect the positive cable
(6) firmly to the piece to be cut.
(N.B.: do not attach the clamp to the part of material that will be cut off).
- The generator is now ready for work. When you want to start, position the torch
on the piece to be cut and press the button on the torch.
- Now the arc is transferred to the piece to be cut. Move the torch in the desired
direction at a speed that ensures a good cutting quality.
- When the cut is finished, release the torch button to stop the arc; air will come
out for 15 seconds to cool the torch parts. In this phase do not press the button
again because it reactivates the air output time.
CUTTING:
- Do not strike the pilot arc in air if it is not necessary to do so. This considerably
reduces the life of the nozzle.
- Start cutting from the edge of the piece, until you manage to perforate it.
- Ensure that, during cutting, the sparks fall away from the bottom of the piece. If
they come out at the top it means that the torch is being moved to fast or that
there is not the necessary power to perforate the piece.
- Keep the torch in a vertical position and observe the arc along the cutting line.
By dragging the torch lightly on the piece you can keep the cut regular.
- When cutting thin materials, reduce the power so as to have the best cutting
quality.
PERFORATION:
- Hold the torch at a distance of about 1 mm. from the piece to be cut
before pressing the torch button. This prolongs the life of the nozzle.
- Start cutting at a slight angle rather than with the torch in vertical
