_ Do not touch live electrical parts. _ Wear dry, hole-free insulating gloves and body protection. _ Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats or covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work or ground. _ Do not touch torch parts if in contact with the work or ground.
As the inert gas passes through the channel, the spark heats the gas until it reaches the fourth state of matter. This reaction creates a stream of directed plasma, approximately 30,000 F (16,649 C) or more and moving at 20,000 feet per second (6,096 m/sec), that reduces metal to vapor and molten slag.
the radius of the plasma beam. NOTE! This machine is designed to use only compressed air as the “gas”. B. Voltage Regulation The Automatic Voltage Compensation circuit prevents voltage load from exceeding maximum in accordance with the main technical data sheet and shortening the life of the machine. C.
INSTALLATION Note : The input current required to produce the same output power is inversely proportional to the input voltage. Example: If the machine draws A. Unpacking 22 amps @ 220 volts it will draw 44 amps @ 110 Unpack all items and verify that all items volts to produce the same power output.
Position yourself to where you can read the sheet metal to reduce the chance of air pressure. Press the torch switch (air will splatter-back tip damage. exhaust from torch, adjust the air regulator to read approximately 60 to 70 pounds (PSI) 4.
