Manual Contact Cutting
Put the torch's nozzle at the start of the work piece (with slight touch or lift). Turn
on the torch switch to ignite the plasma pilot. After the work piece is cut
thoroughly, then move the torch along the cutting direction uniformly. The
cutting speed should be aimed to cutting thoroughly. If the speed is too quick,
the work piece won't be cut thoroughly, or if too slow, the cut quality would be
affected and could result in a broken arc.
Turn off the torch after the cutting, then the plasma pilot will extinguish and then
withdraw the torch. The cutting process is finished.
Notice while cutting
It's better to start cutting at the edge of the work piece, unless you must do
perforation cutting of the work piece.
Keep a space between the nozzle and the work space. If the torch is pressed into
the work piece heavily it will make the nozzle stick onto the work piece.
It is recommended to "pull" rather than "push" during the cutting process Keep
the torch's nozzle vertical against the work piece, and observe if the arc is moving
along the cutting line.
Do not repeatedly press the torch switch rapidly, otherwise the pilot system and
relative work piece will be destroyed.
