 The rated duty cycle is 60 %. This means that the machine can cut for a total of 6 minutes out of any
10 minutes at the rated current, and then, during the remaining 4 minutes, the machine must be
cooled down to prevent overheating.

Exceeding allowable duty cycle can cause the temperature rise higher than the maximum allowable
temperature, resulting in the performance degradation or damage.
 The figure above shows the ideal value of cutting current and duty cycle. Please use the machine
within the corresponding duty cycle of cutting current..
