Torch consumables
The plasma cutting system uses the same consumable parts for perpendicular-position processes (90°
angle) and bevel-cutting processes.
It is not necessary to change consumables when you go from a perpendicular-position process to bevel
cutting or from bevel cutting to a perpendicular-position process. It also is not necessary to keep two
different sets of consumables (perpendicular and bevel).
For information about how to select consumables (including part numbers) by process type and metal and
how to install the consumables, refer to these sources:
■
XPR Cut Charts Instruction Manual (809830)
■
Install the consumables on page 149
Example configurations for consumables
Consumables that are worn or have damage can have a bad effect on cut quality.
At a minimum, examine the installed consumables one time each day before system operation. For
information about how to do this, refer to Examine the consumable parts on page 254.
Ferrous (mild steel) example configurations
Use these sets of consumables to cut ferrous material. Mild steel is an example of a ferrous metal.
