Installing Optional Two - Stage Air Filter Kit
This optional two - stage air line filter is also for use on
compressed air shop systems. Filter removes moisture
and contaminants to at least 5 microns.
Connect the air supply as follows:
1. Attach the Two Stage Filter bracket to the back
of the power supply per instructions supplied
with the filter assembly.
NOTE
For a secure seal, apply thread sealant to the
fitting threads according to manufacturer's
instructions. Do Not use Teflon tape as a
thread sealer as small particles of the tape
may break off and block the small air pas-
sages in the torch.
2. Connect the two stage filter outlet hose to the
inlet port of the Regulator / Filter Assembly.
3. Use customer - supplied fittings to connect the air
line to the Filter. A 1/4 NPT to 1/4" hose barbed

Using High Pressure Air Cylinders
When using high pressure air cylinders as the air supply:
1. Refer to the manufacturer’s specifications for
installation and maintenance procedures for high
pressure regulators.
2. Examine the cylinder valves to be sure they are
clean and free of oil, grease or any foreign mate-
rial. Briefly open each cylinder valve to blow out
any dust which may be present.
3. The cylinder must be equipped with an adjust-
able high - pressure regulator capable of outlet
pressures up to 100 psi (6.9 bar) maximum and
flows of at least 300 scfh (141.5 lpm).
4. Connect supply hose to the cylinder.
NOTE
Pressure should be set at 100 psi (6.9 bar) at
the high pressure cylinder regulator.
Supply hose must be at least 1/4 inch (6
mm) I.D.
For a secure seal, apply thread sealant to the
fitting threads, according to manufacturer's
instructions. Do Not use Teflon tape as a
thread sealer, as small particles of the tape
may break off and block the small air pas-
sages in the torch.
