The cause of control malfunctions can be found by
referring to the sequence of operations and electri-
cal schematic diagram (figure 5-1) and checking
the various components. a volt-ohmmeter will be
necessary for some of these checks.
Voltages in plasma cutting equipment are high
enough to cause serious injury or possibly death.
Be particularly careful around equipment when the
covers are removed.
NOTE
Before checking voltages in the circuit, disconnect the
power from the high frequency generator to avoid dam-
aging your voltmeter.
