GENERAL SAFETY RULES

Your PLASMA CUTTER has many features that 
will make your job faster and easier. Safety, 
performance and reliability have been given 
top priority in the design of this tool, qualities 
to make easy to maintain and to operate.

 WARNING: Read and understand all in-

structions. Failure to follow all indications list-
ed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/
or serious personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

SAFETY IN WORKING AREA

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Clut-
tered benches and dark areas may cause acci-
dents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable 
liquids, gases or dust. 
Some power tools create 
sparks which may provoke fire.
Keep away observers, children and visitors 
while operating a power tool.
 Distractions can 
cause you to lose control.

ELECTRIC SAFETY

Double insulation eliminates the need for the 
three wire grounded power cord and ground-
ed power supply system.
Avoid the body contact with grounded surfac-
es such as pipes, radiators and refrigerators. 
There is an increased risk of electric shock if 
your body is grounded.
Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet condi-
tions.
 The presence of water into power tools 
will increase the risk of electric shock.
Do not abuse of the power cord. Never use the 
power cord to carry the tool and do not pull 
the plug off the outlet. 
Keep the cable away of 
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace 
damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords 
increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outside, use an 
outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. 
These cords are rated for outdoor use and re-
duce the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use 
common sense when operating a power tool.
 
Don't use the tool if you are tired or under the 
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A 
moment of inattention while operating power 
tools may cause a serious personal injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing 
or jewelry.
 Contain long hair. Keep your hair, 
clothing and gloves away of moving parts. 
Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be 
caught in moving parts.
Avoid an accidental starting. Be sure that the 
switch is OFF before plugging in.
 Carrying 
tools with the finger on the switch or plug in 
the tool switch in ON may cause accidents.
Remove the adjusting keys or wrenches be-
fore turning the tool on. 
A wrench or a key 
that is left close to a rotating part of the tool 
may provoke a personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and 
balance at all times. 
Proper footing and bal-
ance enables better control of the tools on un-
expected situations.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye pro-
tection.
 Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard 
hat, or hearing protection must be used for ap-
propriate conditions.
Before connecting the tool to a power source 
(receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the volt-
age supplied is the same as that one specified 
on the nameplate of the tool.
 To use a not 
specified voltage may cause a serious injury to 
the user as well as damage the tool.

 IMPORTANT: This appliance is not intended 

for use by persons (including children) with re-
duced physical, sensory or mental capabilities 
may be different or reduced, or lack of experi-
ence or knowledge, unless such persons are su-
pervised or trained to operate the product by 
a person responsible for their safety. Children 
should be supervised to ensure they do not use 
the devices as toys.
