Torch Leads to Arc Starting Console Connections

Perform the following steps to connect the torch leads to the arc starting console.
See Figure 6 on the next page.
Note: When making hose connections, only tighten the brass fittings enough to
make water or gas seals. The fittings are subject to damage if over tightened.
Braided Shield
1. Remove the threaded ring from the brass shield connector on the end of the braided
shield. Route the torch leads through the opening in the arc starting console and
push the shield connector through the hole until it is seated against the side of the
console.
2. Slide the threaded ring over the torch leads, thread it onto the brass shield
connector, and tighten firmly. The shield connector should ground the braided
shield to the case of the arc starting console in order to help reduce high frequency
noise emission. Using an ohmmeter, measure for zero ohms between the braided
shield and the ground stud located on the outside of the arc starting console.
