is ignited.
7. Start cutting slowly and then increase the
speed in order to achieve the desired
cutting quality.
8. The speed must be regulated so that a
good cutting capacity can be achieved.
9. When the cutting work is complete push
the interlocking switch
direction of the burner tip.
To cut in manual cutting mode, pull
the overlying spacer across the
workpiece while maintaining a
constant speed. To achieve the perfect cut,
it is important for the material thickness to
comply with the correct cutting speed. If the
cutting speed is too low, the cutting edge will
be blunt due to the severe heat input. The
optimal cutting speed is achieved once the
cutting jet is slightly inclined towards the rear
while cutting. If the plasma burner button
is released, the plasma jet goes out and the
power source switches off. The gas continues
to flow for approx. 5 seconds in order to
cool the burner. During the gas post-flow
time, the plasma cutter

Explanation of pilot ignition
A pilot arc is ignited by pressing the plasma
torch button 8a . This creates a plasma beam
on the tip of the burner sleeve
enables contactless cutting of the workpiece.
Mesh and gratings can also be cut in this
way.
ATTENTION!
fThe device must be left on for approx.
2–3 minutes once the cutting work has
been completed. The cooler cools the
electronics.

PLEASE NOTE!
fWhen the trigger of the burner is
pressed, the voltage required for cutting
will build up inside the plasma cutter.
If the power circuit is then closed, then
the voltage which has built up will
be discharged through the integrated
spark gap. The electrical discharge
which results from this within the device
does not indicate a malfunction. Check
that the device is installed correctly as
described in "Using the device".
