9.1

 

Keep your Plasma Cutting Machine in Top Condition 

 

 

The AdvanceCut45 does not require any special maintenance, however the user should take care of the
machine as follows:

 

1.

 

Regularly clean the ventilation slots 

2.

 

Keep the casing clean 

3.

 

Check all cables before use 

4.

 

Check electrode holders, work lead/clamps and cutting torches before use 

5.

 

Replace worn earth clamps which do not provide a good connection 

6.

 

Replace worn torch consumable parts in a timely manner 

7.

 

Use a soft cloth or brush to clean electrical components. Do not use liquid cleaning products, 
water or especially solvents 

8.

 

Do not use compressed air to clean electrical components as this can force dirt and dust further 
into components, causing electrical short circuits 

9.

 

Check for damaged parts 

 

WARNING! Before performing cleaning/maintenance, replacing cables/connections, 

make sure the machine is switched off and disconnected from the power supply. 

 
If damaged, before further use, the machine must be carefully checked by a qualified person to determine 
that it will operate properly. Check for breakage of parts, mountings and other conditions that may affect 
its operation.  
 
Have your machine repaired by an expert. An authorised service centre should properly repair a damaged 
part.  
 
This appliance is manufactured in accordance with relevant safety standards. Only experts must carry out 
repairing of electrical appliances, otherwise considerable danger for the user may result. 
Use only genuine replacement parts. Do not use modified or non-genuine parts. 
 
 

9.2

 

Storing the Plasma Cutter 

 
When not in use the machine should be stored in the dry, dust-free and frost-free environment.
