CONNECTING THE PLASMA CUTTER
TO A POWER AND AIR SOURCE
The Eastwood Versa Cut 60 Plasma Cutter requires a dedicated 240 VAC, 50 AMP,
50/60HZ grounded outlet protected by a circuit breaker. The plug installed on the
plasma cutter is a NEMA 6-50P and should be used with a NEMA 6-50R receptacle.
As an alternative, by using the included Adapter Cord, the Versa Cut 60 can be used
with a 120 VAC, 20 AMP, 60HZ grounded NEMA 5-15R outlet protected by a circuit
breaker.
Use only UL approved, 3 conductor grounded Extension cords. Use Eastwood #31739
for 120V operation and Eastwood #20029 or #20285 for 240V operation.
Plasma cutting also requires a pressurized air source. The air must be clean and dry and
requires 5-7 CFM @ 60PSI. Usage of a moisture trap is strongly recommended. Air is
connected via the rear panel mounted 1/4” Female NPT input.
