This is very inconvenient using just a barb connector, so it is recommended to install a male quick disconnect before the barb connector on the back of the CT5200D, and female quick disconnects on the argon and air supply hoses.
The CT5200D/DX cooling fan requires good air flow. The equipment may overheat if it is operated in a small closed area such as a cabinet or closet. OPERATION The current, post time, and air or gas pressure settings recommended here are for initial setup.
