Installation
CAUTION

Interconnection of components.

Attach the cut oxygen solenoid cable and both
drive motor cables to the top of tracer control unit.
Connections are labeled.
Plug tracer control power cable into any standard
115VAC outlet with ground.
See Grounding Instructions.
Install the oxygen and fuel gas hoses to the inlet side
of the machine gas flow valves using standard 0.375
inch supply hoses and fittings.
It is the customers responsibility to
regulate gas pressures at the source.
Torches must be equipped with preheat
oxygen and fuel gas check valves between
torch and hoses to prevent gas reverse
flow.
The valves are not designed to stop
flashback.
Such reverse flow can create a hazardous
condition and may be caused by a
damaged or plugged torch tip, a cylinder
emptying during use, loss of pressure in
one supply line, or failure of the operator
to follow correct lighting procedures.
Test the check valves every six months
or any time they have been subjected to
torch backfiring or flashback. Replace
the check valves every 5 years or sooner if
testing indicates.
