On the bottom of the unit there is a plate that includes all the operating specifications for your Forney
325P Plasma System. The serial number of the product is also found on this plate.
Duty Cycling & Overheating
The duty cycle is the amount of time, in minutes, that a plasma arc can remain on within a 10-minute
period when operated at an ambient temperature of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).
If the power supply overheats because its duty cycle is exceeded, the yellow temperature LED will
illuminate, the arc will shut off and the cooling fan will continue to run. To resume cutting, wait for the
yellow temperature LED to extinguish. NOTE: Exceeding duty cycle can damage the system and void
warranty.
