CUTMASTER 50+, CUTMASTER 70+
2.06 Generator Recommendations CE & RCM
When using generators to power the CM 50+ Plasma Cutting System, the following ratings are a
minimum and are to be used along with the ratings previously listed.
Generator Output Rating
NOTE: If Generator is equipped with an idle mode it will need to be in "Run" mode to operate at 50 amps.
When using generators to power the CM 70+ Plasma Cutting System, the following ratings are a
minimum and are to be used along with the ratings previously listed.
Generator Output Rating
NOTE: If Generator is equipped with an idle mode it will need to be in "Run" mode to operate at 70 amps.
NOTE!
Due to circuitry, age and condition two generators with the same ratings may produce different results. Adjust the
amperage accordingly.

NOTE!
Mild steel will typically have a larger cut thickness capacity because the material can also benefit from exothermic
reaction due to carbon content. Stainless steels, specialty hardened alloys, and non ferrous materials such as
aluminum and copper will generally have 20% or more lower cut capacity and slower cut speeds.
