2. If the cutting system is not hard wired, disconnect the main power cord from the electric power. 
If the cutting system is hard wired, you cannot disconnect the main power cord from the electric 
power.
Even if you remove the power from the cutting system, you can still get a 
serious electric shock if the plasma power supply remains connected to 
an electric power source. Use extreme care during service and 
maintenance when the cutting system is connected to electricity.
3. Make sure that the power-indicator LED is not illuminated on the plasma power supply, gas 
connect console, or torch connect console.

want to examine. Refer to Table 34.
