5-5. Sequence Of Cutting Operation

After cutting arc starts, slowly

start moving torch across metal.

Adjust torch speed so

sparks go thru metal and

Pause briefly at end of

cut before releasing trigger.

Raise trigger lock and press

trigger. Pilot arc starts.

Postflow continues for approx. 20 seconds

after releasing trigger; cutting arc can be

instantly restarted during postflow by raising

trigger lock and pressing trigger.

The pilot arc starts immediately

when trigger is pressed.

For standard (shielded) cutting, place drag

shield on edge of metal. For extended

(non-shielded) cutting, use 1/8 in (3.2 mm)

standoff distance (dragging tip will reduce tip

life).

Connect work clamp to a clean, paint-free

location on workpiece, as close to cutting

area as possible.

.

Set air pressure to 75 PSI (517 kPa) for cutting.
