2.Safety Tips.
2.1 Ventilation
This equipment is small-sized, compact in structure, and of
excellent performance in amperage output.
The fan is used to dissipate heat generated by this equipment
during the welding operation.
Important: Maintain good ventilation of the louvers of this
equipment.
The minimum distance between this equipment and any other
objects in or near the working area should be 1ft. Good
ventilation is of critical importance for the normal performance
and service life of this equipment.
2.2 Thermal Overload protection.
Should the machine be used to an excessive level. or in high
temperature environment, poorly ventilated area or if the fan
malfunctions the Thermal Overload Switch will be activated and the machine
will cease to operate. Under this circumstance, leave the machine switched on
to keep the built-in fan working to bring down the temperature inside the
equipment. The machine will be ready for use again when the internal
temperature reaches safe level.
2.3 Over-Voltage Supply
Regarding the power supply voltage range of the machine, please refer to '
Main parameter table.
This equipment is of automatic voltage compensation, which enables the
maintaining of the voltage range within the given range. In case that the
voltage of input power supply amperage exceeds the stipulated value. it is
possible to cause damage to the components of this equipment. Please ensure
your primary power supply is correct.

Air plasma cutting technology
Plasma cutters work by passing an electric arc through a air/gas that is passing
through a constricted opening. The gas can be air, nitrogen, argon, oxygen. etc.
The electric arc elevates the temperature of the gas to the point that it enters a
4th state of matter. We all are familiar with the first three: i.e.,Solid, liquid, and
gas. Scientists call this additional state plasma. As the metal being cut is part of
the cireuit, the electrical conductivity of the plasma causes the arc to transfer to
the work. The restricted opening (nozzle) the gas passes through causes it to
squeeze by at a high speed, like air passing through a venturi in a carburettor.
This high speed gas cuts through the molten metal.
Plasma cutting was invented as the result of trying to develop a better welding
process. Many improvements then led to making this technology what it is today.
Plasma cutters provide the best combination of accuracy, speed, and afford
ability for producing a variety of flat metal shapes. They can cut much finer, and
faster than oxy-acetylene torches.
Operation
1. When the trigger is squeezed, DC current flows through the torch lead into the
nozzle.
2. Next, compressed air flows through the torch head, through the air diffuser
that spirals the air flow around the electrode and through the hole of the
cutting nozzle.
3. A fixed gap is established between the electrode and the nozzle. (The power
supply increases voltage in order to maintain a constant current through the
joint.) Electrons arc across the gap. ionizing and super heating the air creating
a plasma stream.
4. Finally, the regulated DC current is switched so that it no longer flows to the
nozzle but instead flows from the electrode to the work piece. Current and
airflow continue until cutting is stopped.

Notes:
The nozzle and electrode require periodic replacement. The electrode has an
insert of tough high conductive material such as hafnium and cerium. This insert
erodes with use, also the nozzle orifice will erode with use.
Quality of the air used is paramount to longer life of electrodes and nozzles, in
short clean dry air gives longer parts life, the cleaner and dryer the better. We
recommend use of a Plasma Air Filter.
Plasma Introduction
The plasma Cutting process involves creating and electrical channel of
super¬heated. electrically ionized gas i.e. plasma from the plasma cutter itself,
through the work piece to be cut, thus forming a completed electric circuit back
to the plasma cutter via a grounding clamp. This is accomplished by a
compressed gas (Oxygen,air, inert and others depending on material being cut )
which is blown through a focused nozzle at high speed toward the work piece. An
electrical arc is the formed within the gas. between an electrode near or
integrated into the gas nozzle and the work piece itself. The electrical arc ionizes
some of gas. thereby creating and electrically conductive channel of plasma. As
electricity from the cutter torch travels down this plasma it delivers sufficient
heat to melt through the work piece. At the same time, much of the high velocity
plasma and compressed gas blow the hot molten metal away. thereby separating
i.e. cutting through the work piece.
NOTE: This machine is designed to use only compressed air as gas.

Speed
Amperage and speed are critical to producing a good quality cut. The faster you
move (especially on aluminium), the cleaner your cut will be. To determine if
you're going too fast or too slow, visually follow the arc that is coming from the
bottom of the cut. The arc should exit the material at a slight angle away from
the direction of travel. If it's going straight down. that means you're going too
slow. and you'll have an unnecessary buildup of dross or slag. If you go too fast, it
will start spraying back onto the surface of the material without cutting all the
way through. Because the arc trails at an angle, at the end of a cut, slow your
cutting speed and angle the torch in to cut through the last bit of metal.
Direction
It is easier to pull the torch towards you than push it. The plasma stream swirls
as it exits the tip, biting one side and finishing off on the other leaving a bevelled
edge and a straight edge. The bevel cut effect is more noticeable on thicker
material and needs to taken into consideration before starting your cut as you
want the straight side of the eut to be on the finished piece you keep.
Electrode condition
A fixed gap is established between the electrode and the inside of the cutting tip.
Electrons arc across the gap, ionizing and super heating the air creating the
plasma stream. The electrode contains an insert in the end made of a highly
conductive material called hafnium. This insert erodes with use and develops a
pit in the end of the electrode, when the pit becomes too much poor quality cuts
will result and necessitate replacement of the electrode.
Technique Tips
•It is easier to pull the torch through the cut than to push it.
•To cut thin material reduce the amperage until you get the best quality cut.
•Use the correct size tip orifice for the amperage being used.
•For Straight cuts use a straight edge or cutting buggy as a guide. For circles, use
a template or circle cutting attachment.
•Check that the front end consumable parts of the plasma cutting torch are in
good condition.
