System Set-up
Before turning on the power
• Verify incoming voltage at source
• Connect torch to power supply
• Connect plasma gas (air) to power supply
• Verify proper consumables are in torch
• Attach work clamp to workpiece (plate)

System Set-up
Powering up the system
• Turn on the power supply
• Set gas pressure as prescribed in the manual
• Adjust output current
• Set pilot arc controller switch to the appropriateposition (if applicable)
• Begin cutting

Plasma System Safety
Electric shock issues
• Operating a plasma cutting system completes an electricalcircuit. The workpiece is part of the circuit!
• Never touch the torch body or workpiece when the plasmasystems is operating.
• Do not touch any wet surface when using the plasma system.
• Do not move the work clamp during cutting operations.
• Always turn off the power supply before changingconsumables

Plasma System Safety
Eye and skin protection
• Plasma arc rays produceintense visible and invisiblerays that can burn eyes andskin.
• Always wear eye protection.
• Always wear gloves andflame-retardant clothing.
