Adjust the gas pressure manually
Make sure that the gas pressure you select is correct for your cutting or gouging application.
1. Move the torch-lock switch to the green “ready to fire” ( ) position.
2. Push and hold the Mode button .
3. While holding the Mode button, turn the adjustment knob to adjust the gas pressure to the
necessary level.
In this example, we
decreased the gas pressure
to 2.4bar (35psi).
In many conditions, you can
increase and decrease the
gas pressure by a maximum
of 0.7bar (10psi). The
acceptable range can change
if the cartridge you are using
has a smaller maximum limit.
4. Release the Mode button.
 After you release the
Mode button, the AMPS
LED illuminates again,
and the 2-digit display
changes from gas
pressure back to
amperage.
 The selected mode
LED flashes to let you
know that the gas
pressure has been
manually adjusted. It
continues to flash until you reset the pressure.
 To see the gas pressure setting again, repeat step 2.
