2. Installation
The connection diagram of the cutter is shown above.
Be sure to use this welding machine with the specied cutting gun, earth clamp
together; otherwise, it will affect the welding performance and may damage the
machine.
• Connect the output terminal of thecompressor to the input terminal (IN) of
the pressure reducing valve via the air duct, and tightly connect the output terminal
(OUT) of the pressure reducing valve to the copper tube on the rear of this machine
via high-pressure leather hose.
• Connect the copper nut on the cutting gun with the pneumo-electric output
terminal on the front of this machine, and tighten this nut clockwise (to prevent gas
leakage); connect the rapid socket on the earth clamp with the positive output ter-
minal on the front panel of the cutter and tig hten the socket.
• Connect the switch plug on the cutting gun with the switch connector of
the cutting gun on the panel. Screw the electrode into the cutting torch to the end,
slightly tighten them with force and then properly install the nozzle and protection
cover in a proper order.
Important to set the correct air pressure before cutting. At low pressures the arc con-
dent but the molten material of the cutting gap is therefore more difcult to leave the
cut surface will not be smooth. At high air pressure in the ignition more difcult, but at
the cutting surface is smoother.

4. Precautions
4-1. Workspace
1. welding equipment free of dust, corrosive gas, non-ammable materials, up to 90%
humidity for use!
2. Avoid welding outdoors unless protected from direct sunlight, rain, snow, work area
temperature must be between -10 ° C and +40 °.
3. Wall to position the device at least 30 inches away.
4. well-ventilated area to perform welding.
• When preparing for cutting, hold the cutting gun (the cutting gun does not contact
the workpiece for a model of non-contact arc striking) and press the gun switch; at
this time, plasma arc will eject from the nozzle hole, indicating the electrode, nozzle,
etc are installed correctly. If there is no plasma arc or only weak plasma arc ejected
from the nozzle hole, it indicates the electrode and nozzle are installed improperly,
so reinstallation is necessary after power-on.
• When cutting starts, the outer edge of the nozzle hole should be aligned to the edge
of the workpiece. Press the cutting torch switch to strike the arc; if the arc is not
struck, release the switch and press it again. After successful arc striking, move the
cutting torch at a constant speed to conduct normalcutting (the moving speed
should vary from different plate thicknesses; if the sparks upturn, it indicates the mov-
ing speed is too fast and the workpiece is not cut through, and the moving speed
should be slower. If the sparks splash vertically to the workpiece, it indicates the mov-
ing speed is too slow and the adhering slags may increase, and the speed should
be improved properly.
• At the end of the cutting, when the workpiece will be cut off, the cutting speed
should be slowed down, release the cutting torch switch to complete the cutting.
• Splashes adhering to the nozzle surface will affect the cooling effect of the nozzle,
so they should be removed in time, and dust and splashes on the cutting gun head
should be removed regularly so as to maintain a good heat emission effect.
• The cutting torch rack ensures the distance from the nozzle to the plate(Tianzong
Gun). Never remove the cutting torch rack during cutting; otherwise the normal dis-
tance from the nozzle to the plate can not be guaranteed, thus causing the nozzle
to touch the plate so as to lead to the gun burned.
• Replace the electrode and nozzle.
In case of the following cases, be sure to replace the electrode and nozzle in time.
1) above 1.5mm electrode consumption depth;
2) irregularly deformed nozzle aperture;
3) obviously slower cutting speed and green ames occurring for arc
4) difcult arc striking;
5) Slanting kerf or widening kerf

4-2 . Safety requirements
Welding provides protection against overvoltage / overcurrent / overheating. If any
of the above events occurs, the machine stops automatically. However, over-
stress damage to the machine , keep the following guidelines :
1. Ventilation . When welding a strong current going through the machine , so the
machine is not enough natural ventilation for cooling . The need to ensure ad-
equate cooling, so the distance between the plane and any object around it at
least 30 cm . Good ventilation is important to normal function and service life of the
machine.
2. Continuously , the welding current does not exceed the maximum allowable value.
Current overload may shorten its life or damage to the machine .
3. Surge banned ! Observance of tension range follow the main parameter table .
Welding machine automatically compensates for voltage , allowing the voltage
within permissible limits of law. If input voltages exceed the specied value , dam-
aged parts of the machine .
4. The machine must be grounded! If you are operating in a standard, grounded
AC pipeline in the event of grounding is provided automatically . If you have a
generator or foreign , unfamiliar , non-grounded power supply using the machine
, the machine is required for grounding connection point earth to protect against
electric shock .
5. Suddenly stopping may be during welding when an overload occurs or the ma-
chine overheats . In this case, do not restart the computer , do not try to work with
it right away, but do not turn off the power switch , so you can leave in accord-
ance with the built-in fan to cool the welding machines .
5. Maintenance
1. Remove power unit before maintenance or repair!
2. Ensure that proper grounding!
3. Make sure that the internal gas and electricity connections are perfect and
tighten, adjust if necessary, if there is oxidation, remove it with sandpaper and then
reconnect the cable.
4. Hands, hair, loose clothing should be kept away under electric parts, such as wires,
fan.
5. Regularly dust from the machine clean, dry compressed air, a lot of smoke and pol-
luted air to clean the machine every day!
6. The gas pressure is correct not to damage components of the machine.
7. If water would be, for example. rain, dry it in the machine and check the insulation
properly! Only if everything is all right, go after the welding!
8 When not in use for a long time, in the original packaging in a dry place.
