failure of internal components result in the possible presence of sparks and explosions. If a failure occurs, discontinue
further use until malfunctioning parts or accessories have been repaired or replaced by qualified personnel.
Note on High Frequency electromagnetic disturbances:
Certain cutting processes generate High Frequency (HF) waves.
These waves may disturb sensitive electronic equipment such as televisions, radios, computers, cell
phones, and related equipment. High Frequency may also interfere with fluorescent lights. Consult
with an electrician if disturbance is noted. Sometimes, improper wire routing or poor shielding may
be the cause.
HF can interfere with pacemakers. See EMF warnings in following safety section for further information.
Always consult your physician before entering an area known to have cutting equipment if you have a
pacemaker.
WARNING! Persons with pacemakers should not cut or be in the cutting area until they consult with their
physician. Some pacemakers are sensitive to EMF radiation and could severely malfunction while cutting or
while being in the vicinity of someone cutting. Serious injury or death may occur!
Plasma cutting processes generate electromagnetic fields and radiation. While the effects of EMF
radiation are not known, it is suspected that there may be some harm from long term exposure to
electromagnetic fields. Therefore, certain precautions should be taken to minimize exposure:
 Lay leads and lines neatly away from the body.
 Never coil cables around the body.
 Secure cables with tape if necessary to keep from the body.
 Keep all cables and leads on the same side the body.
 Never stand between cables or leads.
 Keep as far away from the power source (welder) as possible while cutting.
 Never stand between the ground clamp and the torch.
 Keep the ground clamp grounded as close to the cut as possible.
