OPERATION
High voltage danger from power source!
Consult a qualified electrician for proper installation of receptacle at the power source. This plasma cutter
must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electrical shock. If you are not sure if your
outlet is properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified electrician. Do not cut off the grounding prong
or alter the plug in any way and do not use any adapter, other than the supplied adapter, between the
plasma cutter's power cord and the power source receptacle. Make sure the POWER switch is OFF, then
connect your plasma cutter's power cord to a properly grounded 230 VAC (220V - 240V), 60 Hz, single
phase, 60 amp power source.
1. SET-UP
–
a. Check the plasma cutter to see if it has been connected correctly and is in good working
condition, as described in the INSTALLATION section, and that it complies with safe
operation requirements as noted in the IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
section.
b. Switch on the power switch of the cutter to observe if the operation is normal. If it is normal,
the fan should start up and the Power Indicator Light should be on. If there is no
compressed air or the air pressure is low, the Low Pressure Indicator Light will be on.
c. Adjust the air supply valve until the air pressure is up to the cutting torch requirement
(lowest pressure should be no less than 50psi); the Low Pressure Indicator Light will not
be lit up in those conditions.
d. Adjust the air flow to be sure it is consistent.
e. Pull the torch trigger. The cutting operation begins after the cutting plasma pilot arc is
