3. Hold the torch away from your body.
4. Slide the trigger release toward the back
of the torch handle while simultaneously
squeezing the trigger. The pilot arc will
start.
5. Bring the torch within transfer distance to
the work. The main arc will transfer to the
work, and the pilot arc will shut off.
NOTE
The gas preflow and postflow are a characteristic
of the power supply and not a function of the
torch.
6. Cut as usual. Simply release the trigger
assembly to stop cutting.
7. Follow normal recommended cutting
practices as provided in the power supply
operator's manual.
NOTE
When the shield cup is properly installed, there
is a slight gap between the shield cup and the
torch handle. Gas vents through this gap as part
of normal operation. Do not attempt to force the
shield cup to close this gap. Forcing the shield
cup against the torch head or torch handle can
damage components.
8. For a consistent standoff height from the
workpiece, install the standoff guide by
sliding it onto the torch shield cup. Install
the guide with the legs at the sides of the
shield cup body to maintain good visibility
of the cutting arc. During operation, posi-
tion the legs of the standoff guide against
the workpiece.
Shield Cup With Straight Edge
The drag shield cup can be used with a non con-
ductive straight edge to make straight cuts by
hand.
WARNING
The straight edge must be non - conduc-
tive.
Using Drag Shield Cup With Straight Edge
The crown shield cup functions best when cutting
3/16 inch (4.7 mm) solid metal with relatively
smooth surface.
