Installation

3.1

general

Proper installation is important for satisfactory and trouble-free operation of the Powercut cutting package. It is
suggested that each step in this section be studied carefully and followed closely.
3.2

Equipment required

A source of clean, dry air that supplies 500 cfh (236 l/m) at 90 psig (6.2 bar) is required for the cutting operation.
The air supply should not exceed 150 psig (10.3 bar) (the maximum inlet pressure rating of the air regulator sup-
plied with the package).
3.3

Location

Adequate ventilation is necessary to provide proper cooling of the Powercut. The amount of dirt, dust, and
excessive heat to which the equipment is exposed, should be minimized. There should be at least one foot of
clearance between the Powercut power source and wall or any other obstruction to allow freedom of air move-
ment through the power source.
3.4

Inspection

A. Remove the shipping container and all packing material and inspect for evidence of concealed damage
which may not have been apparent upon receipt of the Powercut. Notify the carrier of any defects or dam-
age at once.
B. Check container for any loose parts prior to disposing of shipping materials.
C. Check air louvers and any other openings to ensure that any obstruction is removed.
