User's Manual
Use mechanical ventilation to improve air
quality. If engineering controls are not fea-
sible, use an approved respirator.
• Work in a confined area only if it is well
ventilated, or while wearing an air-supplied
respirator.
• Follow OSHA guidelines for Permissible Ex-
posure Limits (PEL’s) for various fumes and
gases.
10. Always keep hoses away from welding/cut-
ting spot. Examine all hoses and cables for cuts,
burns, or worn areas before each use. If any
damaged areas are found, replace the hoses or
cables immediately.
11. Read and understand all instructions and
safety precautions as outlined in the manufac-
turer’s manual for the material you will weld
or cut.
12. Proper cylinder care. Secure cylinders to a
cart, wall, or post, to prevent them from falling.
All cylinders should be used and stored in an
upright position. Never drop or strike a cylinder.
Do not use cylinders that have been dented. Cyl-
inder caps should be used when moving or stor-
ing cylinders. Empty cylinders should be kept in
specified areas and clearly marked “empty.”
13. Never use oil or grease on any inlet connec-
tor, outlet connector, or cylinder valves.
14. Use only supplied Torch on this Inverter Air
Plasma Cutter. Using components from other
systems may cause personal injury and damage
components within.
15. People with pacemakers should consult their
physician(s) before using this product. Electro-
magnetic fields in close proximity to a heart
pacemaker could cause interference to, or fail-
ure of the pacemaker.
16. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure
your extension cord is in good condition. When
using an extension cord, be sure to sue one
heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop
in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. A 50 foot extension cord must be
at least 12 gauges in diameter, and a 100 foot
extension cord must be at least 10 gauges in di-
ameter. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the
cord.
DUTY CYCLE
Duty Cycle is the equipment specifications which
defines the number of minutes within a 10 min-
ute period that a piece of equipment can safely
operate.
This plasma cutter 60 has a 60% duty cycle at 60
Amps, which means that it may be used only 6
minutes at 60 Amps out of any 10 minute peri-
od, and must be rested the remaining 4 minutes.
CAUTION: Failure to observe the duty cycle
limitations of this Plasma Cutter can easily dam-
age this equipment, and will void warranty.
FEATURES
KNOW YOUR TOOL
Before attempting to use this product, become
familiar with all of its operating features and
safety requirements.
1. Power Switch. Up is ON, down is OFF.
