SAFETY
HT4100 Instruction Manual: Operation
SAFETY REMINDERS
• All Hypertherm torches are designed with a safety interlock, which turns off the
power supply when the retaining cap is loosened.
• Never bypass or shortcut the safety interlocks on any of the plasma system units.
• Never operate the plasma system with any of its covers not in place. This would
be hazardous to the operator and other people in the area, and prevents the
proper cooling of the equipment.
• Each Hypertherm plasma system is designed to be used only with specific
Hypertherm torches. Do not substitute other torches which could overheat and
present a potentially dangerous situation to the operator and any personnel in the
area.
