2. Weekly activities
Verify the proper operation of the air flow. Blow off or suck in dust or dirt from the
entire machine, including the air filter.
3. Distance cutting
In some cases it may be advantageous to perform cutting with the tip of the pistol at
a height of approximately 1/16" to 1/8" above the workpiece in order to reduce the
amount of material which is once again blown back into the tip and to maximize the
penetration of thick cuts through the material. Distance cutting should be used when
penetration cutting or or grooving is executed. The distance technique may also be
used when cutting sheet metal in order to minimize the risk of material back splashing,
which could damage the tip.
4. Drilling through
In order to drill through the tip of the pistol should be placed at approximately 3,2 mm
above the workpiece. Hold the pistol at a slight angle to deflect the sparks away from
yourself and the tip of the pistol. Activate the main arc and lower the tip of the pistol
until the main cutting arc is initiated and sparking begins. Initiate drilling on a test item
which is no longer in use and continue with the drilling on the previously defined cut
line once the test hole is completed without problems.
MAINTENANCE
Check the pistol for wear damage, cracks or exposed wire sections. Replace or repair
any such defects before using the device. A heavily worn pistol tip/nozzle contributes
to the reduction of speed, voltage drops and crooked cuts. An indication of a worn
pistol tip/nozzle is an elongated or oversized nozzle opening. The external part of the
electrode may be recessed no more than 3.2 mm. Replace the electrode if it is worn,
as indicated by the above measurement. If the cap cannot be re-attached easily, check
the thread.
