NOTE:
A SEPARATE AIR DRYER BETWEEN THE AIR COMPRESSOR AND REGULATOR ASSEMBLY MUST BE INSTALLED. IT
SHOULD BE INSTALLED AS CLOSE TO THE PLASMA CUTTER AS PRACTICAL. THIS IS A CUSTOMER SUPPLIED ITEM. THIS
WILL REDUCE CUTTING ISSUES SUCH AS SPITTING, POPPING AND RAPID CONSUMABLE WEAR. THE REGULATOR/FILTER
THAT IS INCLUDED IS NOT SUFFICIENT TO REMOVE ALL MOISTURE. IT SERVES ONLY AS A WATER TRAP AND FINE SEDI-
MENT FILTER. ANY AIR COMPRESSOR SYSTEM PRODUCES MOISTURE IN ALMOST ANY ENVIRONMENT REGARDLESS OF
HUMIDITY LEVELS. DAILY DRAINING OF THE AIR COMPRESSOR IS RECOMMENDED AS WELL. THE AIR SUPPLIED TO THE
PLASMA CUTTER SHOULD BE OF SIMILAR QUALITY USED FOR AUTOMOTIVE PAINTING. DIFFERENT STYLES OF DRYERS
ARE AVAILABLE. THE MOST INEXPENSIVE AND COMMONLY AVAILABLE IS THE REPLACEABLE DESSICANT TYPE USED FOR
AUTOMOTIVE PAINTING. DAMAGE DONE TO THE TORCH AND THE PLASMA CUTTER (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:
SHORTING, CORROSION AND DETERIORATION OF INTERNAL LINES AND COMPONENTS) AS A RESULT OF EXCESS MOIS-
TURE IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. ADDITIONALLY, A FILTER SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN-LINE OR AT THE COM-
PRESSOR THAT WILL FILTER ANY EXCESS OIL OR OIL BLOW-BY FROM THE LINE IF NECESSARY. DO NOT USE WITH OILING
SYSTEMS DESIGNED TO AUTOMATICALLY LUBRICATE AIR TOOLS. IT IS ADVISABLE TO USE THE PLASMA CUTTER WITH A
NEW AIR HOSE/LINE THAT IS FRESH WITHOUT MOISTURE OR LUBE CONTAMINATION. IF AIR PRESSURE DROPS FROM
THE COMPRESSOR TO THE CUTTER MORE THAN 5-10 PSI, OR AIR FLOW IS INSUFFICENT, INCREASE TO A LARGER SIZE
DRYER/FILTER. FAILURE TO USE THE PROPER DRYER/FILTER IS THE NUMBER ONE CAUSE OF CUTTING ISSUES.
