CAUTION
During cutting the speed of the torch movement should be in accordance with the
thickness of the piece to be cut. Excessive speed causes a return of incandescent
towards the torch which shortens the life of the parts of the torch most subject to
wear and tear. The metal fouling on the nozzle should be removed as soon as possible.
