Control Panel and Operation
The operator's panel of the Red Sabre is mainly composed of a detachable touch screen and control
box. The screen is magnetic and can be attached to any convenient location close to the user
location to help reduce the amount of walk-back time needed for adjustment and setup.
Power Controls
The unit has a basic power control panel that includes an Emergency Stop (E-Stop), Key Switch and
an ON Indicator light. The E-Stop should be pressed in any emergency, but should not be used as a
power down switch. The E Stop will deactivate the unit immediately. The E-Stop Knob must be
rotated clockwise to reset. The key switch is a master safety switch, which is used to prevent access
to unauthorized users. It should be removed and securely stored when the machine is not in use.
The main power switch is located on the rear of the machine and should be used to turn the unit on
or off. This is the only approved method of completely turning the machine on and off when not in
use to ensure the unit has no power flowing through the machine. The key switch can be used for
temporary stoppage and breaks. The E-Stop may not be used except in the event of an emergency. If
the E-Stop fails, contact Everlast Technical support immediately and seek replacement options. Do
not attempt to bypass the E-Stop.

Startup
The unit must be connected to all control cables safety lockouts, communication lines before use.
The items are clearly marked and distinct in shape and pinout sizes and numbers so that it is an
intuitive setup. When the unit is first turned on, it will go through a boot up process before it reaches
up full power. Allow time before using for this process to take place. The machine is usually fully
booted within 30 seconds.
CAUTION! Make sure Argon is turned on for Laser welding. Connect air for cutting and de-
rusting/de-scaling, otherwise damage will result to the gun and gun lenses. Always make sure
they are turned on before use. Damage resulting in failure to operate with shielding or
cutting/descaling gas/air flow is not covered under warranty.
