cleaned with chlorinated solvents (or near such solvents) as vapours from the arc action may produce toxic gases.
DO NOT operate the inverter while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or intoxicating medication, or if tired.
8
DO NOT use the plasma inverter for a task it is not designed to perform.
8
DO NOT operate the plasma inverter if any parts are damaged or missing as this may cause failure and/or personal injury.
8
DO NOT strain or bend the cables, protect them from sharp or abrasive items and DO NOT stand on them.
8
Protect cables from heat. Long lengths of slack must be gathered and neatly coiled. DO NOT place cables where they will endanger others.
9
DO NOT hold unsecured work piece in your hand.
8
DO NOT get the plasma inverter wet or use in damp or wet locations or areas where there is condensation.
8
DO NOT touch the work piece close to the cut as it will be very hot. Allow to cool. The cut edge of the work piece will also be very sharp.
8
DO NOT touch the torch immediately after use. Allow the torch to cool.
8
When not in use store the unit in a safe, dry, childproof area.

ASSEMBLY
4.1.
AIR LINE
4.1.1. Attach a clean dry compressed air supply (fig.1.2).
4.2.
TORCH LEAD (see fig.2 and fig.3)
4.2.1. Screw fitting to the air line connection nipple (fig.2.9). Then slide outer sleeve over connection and tighten (Hand tight).
4.2.2. Pull the collar of the 2 pin plug back toward the cable and plug into the socket, observing the fit one way groove, screw collar over
connection. On removal, remember to unscrew pull back the collar initially and then the plug. DO NOT remove by pulling the cable.
4.3.
LOCATING THE INVERTER
4.3.1. Ensure that the work area has a good airflow and that there is no dust, smoke or gas present.
4.3.2. Ensure that there is a minimum clearance of 500mm around the machine, and that there are no obstacles to prevent a cool airflow.
Also check to ensure that the front outlet and rear grilles are not blocked.
4.3.3. When moving the machine, disconnect from the mains power supply and gather all cables safely.
4.4.
CONNECTING THE EARTH RETURN CABLE (See fig.2.7 and fig.3)
4.4.1. Check that there is a good electrical contact. Caution: Ensure that you have made good contact on oxidised or coated sheets.
4.4.2. Make the earth connection as close to the cutting area as possible.
DO NOT connect to structures or objects, other than the metal work bench which is supporting the workpiece. To do so may damage the
8
safety system and will give a poor cut.
DO NOT make the earth connection to the part of the work piece that will be removed.

4.5.
ISOLATION SWITCH
4.5.1. The I/O (on/off) switch is located at the rear of the machine (fig.1.1). The red switch will illuminate (fig.1.1) indicating that mains power is
present. The control and duty circuits are now live but the torch will remain in 'stand-by' mode until the air supply is connected and the
torch button is pressed.
4.5.2. CUTTING REGULATOR
4.5.3. The cutting current is regulated by the knob/potentiometer on the front panel (fig.2.6).
4.6.
THERMAL SWITCH AND MAINS VOLTAGE FAULT
4.6.1. If the over current LED (fig.2.4) on the front panel illuminates this indicates a mains voltage or thermal problem and the machine will be
automatically shut down as a result of one of the following:
a) The power transformer has overheated.
b) There has been a decrease or increase in the mains voltage supplied to the machine.
When the safety switch is activated in this way the problem is normally self-rectifying, and dependant upon duty cycle time, see
rating plate in section 8. The switch will re-set and the LED will go out and the machine is then ready for use again.
4.7.
TORCH (fig3.9)
4.7.1. Although the machine and torch may be fully powered, the torch button is the only way to activate the cutting process.
4.7.2. To turn the cutting process on, T2 to operate trigger, release to stop.T4 pull trigger twice for a continuous flow and again twice to release
(Indication light are shown on fig.2.4 operation applied).
4.7.3. The cooling air (post-air) will continue to flow for a further 5 seconds approximately.
