WITHIN THICKNESS
RANGE
Turn up the Output Current
Knob and try again at a
slower Torch travel speed.
PROBLEM
CORRECTED
Take note of the setting
required for this
metal thickness.
AIR PRESSURE
CORRECT
Disassemble Torch, inspect and replace
worn components, then reassemble Torch
tightly according to on page 25.
