with the Output Current Control Knob.
Cutting Operation
When the torch leaves the workpiece during cut-
ting operations with the Function Control Knob in
the RUN position, there is a brief delay in restarting
the pilot arc. With the knob in the RAPID AUTO
RESTART position, when the torch leaves the
workpiece the pilot arc restarts instantly, and the
cutting arc restarts instantly when the pilot arc
contacts the workpiece. (Use the 'Rapid Auto
Restart' position when cutting expanded metal
or gratings, or in gouging or trimming operations
when an uninterrupted restart is desired). And
with the knob in the LATCH position the main cut-
ting arc will be maintained after the torch switch
is released.

OPERATION
ESAB CuTmASTEr 100
Typical Cutting Speeds
Cutting speeds vary according to torch output
amperage, the type of material being cut, and
operator skill. Refer to Section "4T.08
Recommended Cutting Speeds for Mechanized
Torch With Exposed Tip" and following for greater
details.
Output current setting or cutting speeds may be
reduced to allow slower cutting when following a
line, or using a template or cutting guide while still
producing cuts of excellent quality.
Postflow
Release the trigger to stop the cutting arc. Gas
continues to flow for approximately 20 seconds.
During post - flow, if the user moves the trigger
release to the rear and presses the trigger, the
pilot arc starts. The main arc transfers to the
workpiece if the torch tip is within transfer distance
to the workpiece.
Shutdown
Turn the ON / OFF
(down). All Power Supply indicators shut OFF.
Unplug the input power cord or disconnect input
power. Power is removed from the system.
