G.  Hour/Counter Meters

Meter assembly containing two meters.  One meter
indicates the total number of hours that the main cut-
ting arc has been on.  The second meter counts the
number of times that the cutting arc has been started.
Both meters display a maximum of 999999 hours or
starts and cannot be reset.

H.  Plasma/Secondary Gas Control

A remote control to select one of various plasma and
secondary gases, including secondary water, that can
be connected to the Power Supply.
