2.
Attach the ground clamp to
the workpiece (Fig. 3).
Connect the ground clamp
directly to the workpiece
and as close to the cutting
area as possible to prevent
the current from traveling along an unexpected path, creating an
electric shock or fire hazard.
3.
If this is not possible, connect the ground clamp to metal attached
to the workpiece, but is not electrically insulated from it. The metal
must be of equal or greater thickness than the workpiece when
using this alternate attachment point.
PLASMA CUTTING
1.
Place and hold the torch
vertically at the edge of the
workpiece. Ensure the nozzle is
parallel with the surface and not
at an angle (Fig. 4). Ensure the
standoff guide is in place.
2.
Pull the trigger to energize the pilot arc. Air or gas will flow a couple of
seconds before the pilot arc starts. The cutting arc will start when the
nozzle is moved closer to the edge of the workpiece (Fig. 5). When the
cutting arc has cut through the
edge of the plate start moving
evenly in the direction you wish
to cut.
2.1 Sparks and debris will
spray upwards from the
cut until the plasma arc burns through the metal. The sparks
and debris will then spray downwards from the cut.
2.2 Press and hold the trigger instead of a series of rapid trigger
presses. This can damage the pilot arc system and workpiece.
