Missing consumable part (nozzle, tip, electrode,
diffuser)
Assembly defect of consumables.
Earth clamp not properly clamped (if interruption after
a few seconds of cutting)
Unsuitable cutting speed.
Too important distance between the torch nozzle and
the part to be cut.
Disruption of compressed air feeding.
Damaged consumable inside the torch.
Insufficient air pressure.
Too fast cutting speed.
Impurities or humidity in compressed air.
Surface of the part to be cut too dirty.
Cutting speed too fast.
Unsuitable pressure of compressed air.
Insufficient setting of the cutting current value accor-
ding to the thickness of the metal part to be cut.
