      First, turn the amperage knob to the gas test position, then unlock the pressure regulator by pulling up on the knob. Turn it to adjust the pressure, and push it down to lock it. Also, verify that the gas supply line is connected to the power supply and the gas is turned on. Finally, inspect the gas supply line for leaks and verify the incoming gas pressure.

      Turn OFF the power supply and verify that there are consumables installed. If you have just installed the consumables, verify that the consumables are only finger-tight; loosen them 1/8th of a turn and then restart the power supply. If the consumables appear to be installed correctly, the torch may be damaged.

    What does it mean if the power ON LED is blinking on my Hypertherm Cutter?
    • D
      Diana WilsonAug 13, 2025
      A blinking power ON LED indicates that the input line voltage is either too high or too low, specifically a variance greater than ±15% of the rated voltage. Have an electrical technician check the incoming power.

    • R
      Robert MckeeAug 22, 2025
      Verify that the power cord is plugged into the receptacle, that the power is ON at the main power panel or at the line-disconnect switch box, and that the line voltage is not too low (more than 15% below the rated voltage).

    Why is the yellow temperature LED illuminated on my Hypertherm Cutter?
    • A
      Andrew LawrenceAug 26, 2025
      The yellow temperature LED illuminates when the internal temperature of the power supply approaches -22° F (?30° C). Leave the power supply on to allow the fan to cool it, or move the power supply to a warmer location.
