These form part of the product and must be available at all times.

RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH FOR

INFANTS AND CHILDREN!

Never leave children unsupervised near packaging material. There is

a risk of suffocation.

 This device may be used by children aged 16 years and older,

and by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capaci-

ties, or a lack of experience and knowledge, if they are supervised

10 GB

or have been instructed in how to use the device safely and

understand the dangers that may arise when using it. Do not allow

children to play with the device. Cleaning and day-to-day mainte-

nance must not be performed by children without supervision.

 Repairs and/or maintenance work must only be carried out by

qualiﬁed electricians.

 Only use the cutting cable provided in the scope of delivery.

 During operation, the device should not be positioned directly

against the wall, covered or jammed between other devices so

that sufﬁcient air can always be absorbed through the ventilation

slats. Make sure that the device is correctly connected to the supply

voltage. Avoid any form of tensile stress of the power cable.

Disconnect the mains plug from the socket prior to setting up the

device in another location.

 If the device is not in operation, always switch it off by pressing

the ON/OFF switch and lock the interlock switch. Place the burner

on an insulated surface and only carry out maintenance work after

allowing it to cool down for 15 minutes.

Hot metal and sparks are blown off from the cutting arc. The ﬂying

sparks, hot metal as well as hot objects and hot device equipment

can cause ﬁres or burns. Check the working environment and make

sure the workplace is suitable prior to using the device.

 Remove all ﬂammable material within 10 m of the plasma cutter. If this

is not possible, cover the objects meticulously using suitable covers.

 Do not make cuts in places where ﬂying sparks could come into

contact with ﬂammable material.

 Protect yourself and others from ﬂying sparks and hot metal.

 Please be careful because sparks and hot materials can easily

fall through small gaps and openings while cutting and land on

adjacent areas.

 Please be aware that cutting on a ceiling, ﬂoor or a partition can

cause a ﬁre on the opposite side that is not visible.

 Connect the power cable using the shortest route with a socket

situated close to the workplace to prevent the power cable from

being spread across the whole room and located on a surface

which could cause an electric shock, sparks or ﬁre outbreak.

 Do not use the plasma cutter to defrost frozen tubes.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK:

ELECTRIC SHOCK FROM THE CUTTING

ELECTRODE CAN BE FATAL.

GB 11

 Do not use the plasma cutter when it is raining or snowing.

 Wear dry insulating gloves.

 Do not touch the electrodes with bare hands.

 Do not wear wet or damaged gloves.

 Protect yourself from electric shock with insulation against the

workpiece.

 Do not open the device housing.

 Additional protection against a shock from the mains power in

the event a fault can be provided by using a fault-circuit inter-

rupter, which is operated with a leakage current of no more than

30mA and covers all mains-powered devices in close proximity.

Thefault-circuit interrupter must be suitable for all types of current.

 There must be means of rapid electrical isolation of the cutting

power source or the cutting circuit (e.g. emergency stop device)

which are easily accessible.

DANGER FROM SMOKE EMISSION WHEN PLASMA

CUTTING:

 Inhalation of fumes which result from plasma cutting can endanger

health.

 Do not keep your head in the fumes.

 Use the device in open areas.

 Only use the device in well-ventilated spaces.

DANGER FROM FLYING SPARKS WHEN PLASMA CUTTING:

 Cutting sparks can cause an explosion or ﬁre.

 Keep ﬂammable substances away from the cutting location.

 Do not use the plasma cutter near ﬂammable substances.

 Cutting sparks can cause ﬁres.

 Keep a ﬁre extinguisher close by and an observer should be

present to be able to use it immediately.

 Do not carry out plasma cutting on drums or any other closed

containers.

DANGER FROM ARC BEAMS:

 Arc beams can damage your eyes and injure your skin.

 Wear a hat and safety goggles.

 Wear hearing protection and high, closed shirt collars.

 Use a welding safety helmet and make sure that the ﬁlter setting

iscorrect.

 Wear complete body protection.

12 GB

DANGER FROM ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS:

 Cutting current generates electromagnetic ﬁelds.

 Do not use if you have a medical implant.

 Never wrap the cutting cable around your body.

 Guide cutting cables together.

zWelding mask-speciﬁc safety instructions

 With the help of a bright light source (e.g. lighter) examine the

proper functioning of the welding shield prior to starting with any

cutting work.

 Cut spatters can damage the protective screen. Immediately

replace damaged or scratched protective screens.

 Immediately replace damaged or highly contaminated or splat-

tered components.

 The device must only be operated by people aged 16 or over.

 Please familiarise yourself with the cutting safety instructions.

Tothat end, you must also observe the safety instructions of your

plasma cutter.

 Always wear a welding helmet while welding and plasma cutting.

If it is not used, you could sustain severe lesions to the retina.

 Always wear protective clothing during welding and plasma

cutting operations.

 Never use the welding shield without the protective screen because

this could damage the optical unit. There is a risk of damage to the

eyes!

 Regularly replace the protective screen to ensure good visibility

and fatigue-proof work.

zEnvironment with increased electrical hazard

Environments with increased electrical hazard may be encountered,

for example:

 In workplaces where the space for movement is restricted, such

that the operator is working in a forced position (e.g. kneeling,

sitting, lying) and is touching electrically conductive parts;

 In workplaces which are restricted completely or in part in terms

of electrical conductivity and where there is a high risk through

avoidable or accidental touching by the welder;

 In wet, humid or hot workplaces where the air humidity or sweat

signiﬁcantly reduces the resistance of human skin and the insulat-

ing properties or effect of protective equipment.

GB 13

 Even a metal conductor or scaffolding can create an environment

with increased electrical hazard.

When using plasma cutters under electrically dangerous conditions,

the output voltage of the plasma cutter must not be greater than

113V when idling (peak value). The plasma cutter may not be used

in these cases due to the output voltage.

zPlasma cutting in tight spaces

When welding and plasma cutting in tight spaces this may pose

a hazard through toxic gases (risk of suffocation). In tight spaces

the device may only be operated if there are trained individuals in

the immediate vicinity who can intervene if necessary. In this case,

before starting to use the plasma cutter, an expert must carry out an

assessment in order to determine what steps are necessary, in order

to guarantee safety at work and which precautionary measures

should be taken during the actual cutting procedure.

zTotal of no-load voltages

When more than one plasma power source is operated at the same

time, their no-load voltages may add up and lead to an increased

electrical hazard. The plasma power sources must be clearly marked

with their individual control units and connections, in order to be able

to identify which device belongs to which circuit.

zUsing shoulder straps

The plasma cutter must not be used if the device is being carried e.g.

with a shoulder strap or handle. This is intended to prevent:

 The risk of losing your balance if the lines or hoses which are

connected are pulled.

 The increased risk of an electric shock as the operator comes into

contact with the earth if he/she is using a Class I plasma cutter,

thehousing of which is earthed through its conductor.

zProtective clothing

At work, the operator must protect his/her whole body by using

appropriate clothing and face protection against radiations and

burns. The following steps must be observed:

– Wear protective clothing prior to cutting work.

– Wear gloves.

14 GB

– Open windows to guarantee air supply.

– Wear protective goggles.

 Gauntlet gloves made of a suitable material (leather) must be worn

on both hands. They must be in perfect condition.

 A suitable apron must be worn to protect clothing from ﬂying

sparks and burns. When speciﬁc work, e.g. overhead cutting,

isrequired, a protective suit must be worn and, if necessary,

evenhead protection.

zProtection against rays and burns

 Warn of the danger to the eyes by hanging up a sign saying

“Caution! Do not look into ﬂames!” in the work area. The work-

places must be shielded so that the persons in the vicinity are

protected. Unauthorised persons must be kept away from cutting

work.

 The walls in the immediate vicinity of ﬁxed workplaces should

neither be bright coloured or shiny. Windows up to head height

must be protected to prevent rays being transmitted or reﬂecting

through them, e.g. by using suitable paint.

zEMC Device Classiﬁcation

According to the standard IEC 60974-10, this is a plasma cutter in

electromagnetic compatibility Class A. Class A devices are devices

that are suitable for use in all other areas except living areas and

areas that are directly connected to a low-voltage supply mains that

(also) supplies residential buildings. Class A devices must adhere to

the Class A limit values.

Class A devices are intended for use in an indus-

trial environment. Due to the power-related as well as the radiated

interference variables, difﬁculties might arise in ensuring electromag-

netic compatibility in other environments. Even if the device complies

with the emission limit values in accordance with the standard, such

devices can still cause electromagnetic interference in sensitive sys-

tems and devices. The user is responsible for faults caused by the arc

while working, and the user must take suitable protective measures.

Indoing so, the user must consider the following:

–power cables, control, signal and telecommunication lines

– computer and other microprocessor controlled devices.

–television, radio and other playback devices

–electronic and electrical safety equipment

GB 15

– persons with cardiac pacemakers or hearing aids

– measurement and calibration devices

–noise immunity of other devices in the vicinity

–the time of day at which the cutting work is performed.

The following is recommended to reduce possible interference radiation:

–the plasma cutter must be regularly maintained and kept in

good condition

–cutting cables should be completely unwound and installed

parallel on the ﬂoor, if possible

–devices and systems at risk of interference radiation must be

removed from the cutting area if possible, or shielded.

zGeneral plasma explanations

Plasma cutters are operated by pushing pressurised gas, e.g. air, through a small pipe. In the centre

of the pipe, there is a negatively charged electrode that is directly above the nozzle. The vortex ring

causes the plasma to rotate quickly. If you supply the negative electrode with current and make the

tip of the nozzle touch the metal, this connection creates a closed, electrical circuit. A powerful spark

occurs between the electrode and the metal. While the gas ﬂows into the pipe, the spark heats up the

gas until it has reached the plasma condition. This reaction causes a current from the controlled plasma

with a temperature of 16,649 ºC or more that moves at speed of 6.096 m/sec and the metal transforms

into steam and molten discharge. The plasma itself conducts electrical current. The working circuit that

allows the arc to occur remains as long as current is supplied to the electrode and the plasma remains

incontact with the metal to be processed.

PLEASE NOTE: This machine is only designed to use compressed air as “gas”.

zBefore use

zInstallation environment

Make sure that the working area is sufﬁciently ventilated. If the device is used without sufﬁcient cooling,

the power-on time reduces and it can result in overheating.

Additional protection can be required for this purpose:

 The device must be free-standing with a gap of at least 0.5 m all around.

 Ventilation slots must not be blocked or covered.

 The device must not be used as a storage place and tools or other items must not be placed on the

device.

 It must be operated in a dry and well-ventilated working environment.

zSelecting compressed air supply

Press the selector switch for the compressed air supply 10 in order to select the compressed air source.

16 GB

 In INT position (Figure J) the compressed air supply is provided by the integrated compressor.

In EXT position (Figure K) by an external compressor.

 When using the integrated compressor, switch the toggle switch for external compressed air 18 to

the “closed” position (Figure L).

zProcedure when using an external compressor

PLEASE NOTE: For plasma cutting, a pressure of 4–4.5 bar is recommended. Adjust this accord-

ingly on your compressor. Please bear in mind that the pressure can lower while setting the air pressure.

Thus, in a hose length measuring 10 m and an internal diameter of 9 mm it drops by approx. 0.6 bar.

The compressed air source must have a ﬁlter and regulator.

 Connect the compressed air hose 20 on the back of the plasma cutter 1 to the compressed air

connection 17. To do so, insert the side of the compressed air hose into the compressed air

connection 17 of the plasma cutter 1 without a quick connector (see Fig. I).

 The pressure can be adjusted using the pressure regulator on your compressor. Select a pressure of

4–4.5 bar.

 In order to release the compressed air hose 20 again, you must press the locking mechanism of the

compressed air connection 17 and pull out the compressed air hose 20 at the same time (see Fig. I).

 Switch the toggle switch for external compressed air 18 to the “open” position (Figure M).

zConnecting the cutting burner

 Remove the cover 21 of the connection socket 13.

 Insert the plasma burner plug 7 into the plasma burner connection socket 13 and tighten the plasma

burner plug hand-tight 7 (see Fig. A+B).

 Plug the plasma burner control plug 6 into the plasma burner control socket 11 and tighten the union

nut hand-tight (see Fig. A+B).

zConnecting the earthing cable

Connect the earthing terminal plug 5 with the earthing terminal connection socket 12.

Make sure that the connecting shaft is ﬁrst connected and then turned. The connecting shaft must face

upwards when plugging in the earthing cable plug 5. After plugging in, the connecting shaft must be

rotated in a clockwise direction until it reaches the stop, in order to lock it in place (see Fig. A+B).

Thisdoes not require force!

zFitting the removable roller guide (optional)

Push the removable roller guide 19 over the nozzle clamping sleeve 8b, until the locking screws 19a are

completely above the black area of the plasma burner 8 (behind the gap at the back of the nozzle

clamping sleeve 8b) (see Fig. N). Now ﬁx the locking screws 19a. The guide rollers 19c are now

positioned such that the required distance between the workpiece and burner sleeve 8c is set. The roller

guide is then ﬁxed in place 19 by tightening the ﬁxing screws 19b (see Fig. N). Make sure that both

guide rollers 19c are always set to the same height, in order to enable straight cutting. You can see a

correctly ﬁtted roller guide in Fig. N.

zUsing the device

zOperation

1. Set the plasma cutter 1 up in a dry and well ventilated area.

2. Position the machine in the vicinity of the workpiece.

GB 17

3. Clamp the earthing terminal 4 onto the workpiece to be cut and make sure that there is a good

electrical contact.

4. Press the on/off switch 16.

5. Set the cutting current on the current controller 14. If the arc beam is interrupted the cutting current

must be set higher if necessary. If the electrode burns through frequently, then the cutting current

must be set lower.

6. Position the plasma cutter 8 on the workpiece so that the burner sleeve 8c is free and that a

blowback of the molten metal is not possible. Push the interlocking switch 8f forwards to lock the

plasma burner button 8a in place. Press the plasma burner button 8a. The transmitted cutting arc is

ignited on the edge of the sheet in this manner.

7. Start cutting slowly and then increase the speed in order to achieve the desired cutting quality.

8. The speed must be regulated so that a good cutting capacity can be achieved.

9. When the cutting work is complete push the interlocking switch 8f backwards again.

PLEASE NOTE: To cut in manual cutting mode, pull the overlying burner across the workpiece

while maintaining a constant speed. To achieve the perfect cut, it is important for the material thickness

to comply with the correct cutting speed. If the cutting speed is too low, the cutting edge will be blunt

due to the severe heat input. The optimal cutting speed is achieved once the cutting jet is slightly inclined

towards the rear while cutting. If the plasma burner button is released 8a , the plasma jet goes out and

the power supply switches off. The gas continues to ﬂow for approx. 5 seconds in order to cool the

burner. During the gas post-ﬂow time, the plasma cutter 1 must not be switched off to avoid damaging

the plasma burner 8 as a result of overheating.

ATTENTION: The device must be left on for approx. 2–3 minutes once the cutting work has been

completed. The cooler cools the electronics.

zOverheating protection and HRD display

If the device overheats, the overheating protection and HRD display 9 lights up yellow.

The output voltage will be lowered to zero.

After the device has cooled down (approx. 10 minutes) you can resume work.

If you press the burner button and the electrical contact is not good, the hazard reduction device (HRD)

will inhibit the voltage output. The overheating protection and HRD display 9 lights up blue.

zTypes of plasma cutting

Drag cutting

Hold the tip of the burner sleeve 8c low over the workpiece and press the plasma burner button 8a.

Now move the burner sleeve until 8c there is contact with the workpiece and the cutting arc is ﬁxed.

Once the cutting arc has been generated, move the plasma burner 8 in the desired direction.

Makes sure that burner sleeve is slightly 8c angled and that contact with the workpiece is maintained.

This working method is called drag cutting. Avoid quick movements. A sign of quick movements is

sparks that fall off the top of the workpiece. Move the plasma burner 8 at a speed in which the spark

accumulation is concentrated on the bottom side of the workpiece. Ensure the material is completely

separated prior to continuing with this process. Set the necessary drag speed.

Distance cutting

In some case, it is beneﬁcial cut while holding the burner sleeve 8c at a height of 1.5 mm to 3 mm

above the workpiece. This reduces the quantity of material that is blown back into the tip. This makes it

possible to penetrate thicker material thicknesses. Distance cutting should be used if penetration or

furrow work is carried out. Furthermore, the “distance” working technique can be used when you need

to cut sheet metal to minimise the risk of material splashing back which could damage the tip.

18 GB

Perforation

To drill through place the tip approx. 3mm above the workpiece. Hold the plasma burner 8 at a slight

angle to guide the sparks away from the burner sleeve 8c and your body. Press the plasma burner

button 8a and lower the tip of the plasma burner until there is a main cutting arc and sparks begin to

form. Test the perforation on a test object that is no longer needed and once there are no problems start

drilling through at the previously deﬁned cutting line on your workpiece. Check the plasma burner 8

for wear and tear, cracks or exposed cable pieces. Replace or repair them prior to using the device.

Abadly worn burner sleeve 8c contributes to the reduction of speed, voltage and unclean separation.

An indication of a badly worn burner sleeve 8c is an extended or oversized nozzle opening. The

external electrode 8d must not be recessed by more than 3.2 mm. Replace it if it is more worn than the

speciﬁed dimension.

zMaintenance and cleaning

zMaintaining the burner

Switch off the main power supply and the main switch of the device prior to carrying out maintenance or

repair work on the plasma cutter.

 The consumables displayed in Figure F are the electrode 8d, diffuser 8e and the burner sleeve 8c .

They can be replaced once the nozzle clamping sleeve 8b has been unscrewed.

 The electrode 8d must be replaced if there is a crater of approximately 1.5 mm depth in the centre.

ATTENTION: To pull the electrode out, do not apply irregular pressure, gradually increase pressure

until the electrode comes out. Then insert the new electrode into the holder.

The burner sleeve 8c must be replaced if the central bore is damaged or if it has expanded in compari-

son to the bore of a new nozzle. If the electrode 8d or the burner sleeve 8c are replaced too late,

thiscan result in the parts overheating. This can reduce the lift cycle of the diffuser 8e .

Once replaced, make sure the nozzle clamping sleeve 8b is tightened sufﬁciently.

ATTENTION: The nozzle clamp sleeve 8b must only be screwed on to the burner 8 once it has

been equipped with the electrode 8d, diffuser 8e and burner sleeve 8c .

If these parts are missing, the device may malfunction and it may create a hazard for

the operating personnel.

zMaintenance

PLEASE NOTE: The plasma cutter must be regularly maintained for perfect function and to comply

with the safety requirements. Improper and wrong operation may cause failures and damage to the

device. Repairs must only be carried out by qualiﬁed specialists.

Switch off the main power supply and the main switch of the device prior to carrying out maintenance or

repair work on the plasma cutter.

zCleaning

 Regularly clean the outside of the plasma cutter and its accessories. Use compressed air, cotton

waste or a brush to remove dirt and dust.

 In case of a defect or a necessary replacement of equipment parts, please contact the appropriate

qualiﬁed personnel.

zStorage

If you will not be using the device for a while, protect it from dust by storing it in a clean and dry place.
