numbered boxes.
1.
Cutting sparks can cause explosion or fire.
1.1 Keep flammable materials away from cutting.
1.2 Cutting sparks can cause fires. Have a fire extin-
guisher nearby, and have a watchperson ready to
use it.
1.3 Do not cut on drums or any closed container.
2.
The plasma arc can cause injury and burns.
2.1 Turn off power before disassembling torch.
2.2 Do not grip material near cutting path.
2.3 Wear complete body protection.
3.
Electric shock from torch or wiring can kill.
3.1 Wear dry insulating gloves. Do not wear wet or dam-
aged gloves.
3.2 Protect yourself from electric shock by insulating
yourself from work and ground.
3.3 Disconnect input plug or power before working on
machine.
4
Breathing cutting fumes can be hazardous to your
health.
4.1 Keep your head out of fumes.
4.2 Use forced ventilation or local exhaust to remove
fumes.
4.3 Use ventilating fan to remove fumes.
5
Arc rays may injure the eyes and burn the skin. Op-
erators should therefore shield their eyes with lens-
es with a protection rating equal to or greater than
DIN11 and adequately protect their
5.1 Wear hat and safety glasses. Use ear protection and
button shirt collar. Use welding helmet with correct
shade of filter. Wear complete body protection.
6
Become trained and read the instructions before
working on the machine or cutting.
7
Do not remove or paint over (cover) the label.
2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This equipment is a direct current continuous power
source designed for plasma arc cutting of electro-con-
W
10
ducting materials (metals and alloys). The plasma gas
can be air or nitrogen.
2.1 TORCH ASSEMBLY (Fig. 1)
Insert the torch fitting into the guard R, then onto the fit-
ting P, firmly tightening the ring-nut to avoid air leaks that
could damage or interfere with smooth operation of the
torch.
Do not dent the current pin or bend the pegs of the torch
fitting. A dented pin may not disconnect, while a bent peg
does not allow proper insertion onto the fixed fitting P,
thereby preventing the machine from working.
Use the screws provided to fasten the guard R on to the
panel.
If torches for automatic cutting are used, connect the
earth cable to the terminal W.
