5. Bedienungsanleitung

Follow these steps for safe and effective plasma cutting:

  1. Einschalten: Turn on the main power switch located on the rear panel. The digital displays will illuminate.
  2. Stromstärke anpassen: Use the Current Adjust Knob to set the desired amperage based on the material type and thickness.
  3. 2T/4T-Modus auswählen:
    • 2T (Two-Touch): Hold the trigger to activate cutting; release to stop. Suitable for short, intermittent cuts.
    • 4T (Vier-Touch): Press once to start cutting; press again to stop. Ideal for longer cuts, eliminating the need to hold the trigger continuously.
  4. Material vorbereiten: Ensure the workpiece is clean and free of rust or paint. Secure the ground clamp fest am Werkstück andrücken.
  5. Beginnen Sie mit dem Schneiden: Position the torch nozzle close to the workpiece. Press the torch trigger to initiate the arc and begin cutting. Maintain a consistent travel speed for a clean cut.
  6. Post-Flow: Nach der Freigabeasing the trigger, the air will continue to flow for a short period (post-gas time) to cool the torch.
