** Cuts on these thicknesses may result in increased cut angle variation and surface roughness. Reduce cut speed by
5%-10% for improvement with some materials.
Minimum inlet pressures remain at one setting of 140 psi (9.6 bar) for all material thicknesses.
Approximate pressures while cutting in RUN mode: PG1 72
