Item 2) and adjust torch tip to pipe height per the torch manufacturer instructions and tighten the Thumbscrew (Fig. 4, item 6) securing the Torch in the Torch Carrier Assembly. NOTE: A 10” long Oxy/fuel or Plasma machine torch is required for the 2SA Saddle Machine to cut all pipes within its range.
Follow the torch manufacturer’s instructions for preheating the pipe. While rotating the machine torch around the pipe, move the cutting oxygen valve to the ON position to penetrate the pipe per the torch manufacturer’s instructions (if using the Plasma Machine torch, activate per the torch manufacturer instructions).
NOTE: If using a plasma torch system, connect the plasma cable between the Motor Control Box and the plasma torch system in the same manner. Verify the cable lock feature is engaged at both ends. Make sure the Plasma Switch is in the “Off” position. Connect the Motor Control Box power cable to the AC electrical receptacle.
