3. STARTUP AND OPERATION
3.1. Preparing
Before beginning, clean the wheels of the carriage and remove the anti-corrosion
coating from the track. Use the carrying handle to transport the carriage to the
worksite. Set the power switch and the travel direction switch to the position 'O', and
set the clutch to the position OFF. Then, plug the power cord into the power source,
insert the torch into the standard torch holder (Fig. 2), and secure with the knobs.
Knob securing the torch
The holder allows torches with the handle diameter of 28–35 mm (1.10–1.38'').
Loosen the lower handle to roughly set the torch angle.
Use the rack position knob to adjust the horizontal position of the torch, and use
the rack locking levers to lock the rack in position.
Then, connect the torch to a proper gas source. Depending on the cutting method
(oxy-fuel or plasma) install into the carriage slot either a gas manifold or the arc
ignition set in the manner described in the subsection of the respective accessory.
Position the carriage on the workpiece or the track so that the torch is placed
right above the starting point of the cut. Then, set the clutch to the position ON.
