Installing Optional Two - Stage Air Filter Kit
This optional two - stage air line filter is also for use on compressed air shop systems. Filter removes moisture
and contaminants to at least 5 microns.
Connect the air supply as follows:
1. Attach the Two Stage Filter bracket to the back of the power supply per instructions supplied with the
filter assembly.
NOTE!
For a secure seal, apply thread sealant to the tting threads, according to manufacturer's instructions. Do not use Teon
tape as a thread sealer, as small particles of the tape may break o and block the small air passages in the torch.
2. Connect the two stage filter outlet hose to the inlet port of the Regulator / Filter Assembly.
3. Use customer - supplied fittings to connect the air line to the Filter. A 1/4 NPT to 1/4" hose barbed

Using High Pressure Air Cylinders
When using high pressure air cylinders as the air supply:
1. Refer to the manufacturer’s specifications for installation and maintenance procedures for high pres-
sure regulators.
2. Examine the cylinder valves to be sure they are clean and free of oil, grease or any foreign material.
Briefly open each cylinder valve to blow out any dust which may be present.
3. The cylinder must be equipped with an adjustable high - pressure regulator capable of outlet pressures
up to 100 psi (6.9 bar) maximum and flows of at least 300 scfh (141.5 lpm).
4. Connect supply hose to the cylinder.
NOTE!
Pressure should be set at 100 psi (6.9 bar) at the high pressure cylinder regulator.
Supply hose must be at least 1/4 inch (6 mm) I.D.
For a secure seal, apply thread sealant to the tting threads, according to manufacturer's instructions. Do Not use Teon
tape as a thread sealer, as small particles of the tape may break o and block the small air passages in the torch.
