7.5 Before switching on

• Ensure that all threaded fittings are tight.
• Replace defective, deformed or worn parts.
• Ensure that equipment parts are correctly positioned and complete.
NOTICE
• Small amounts of condensation can form in the feed hoses after long periods of non-use
or following major temperature fluctuations. To remove this condensation from within the
cable assembly, repeatedly actuate the gas pre-flow trigger until the cable assembly is
dry. The wear parts need to be disassembled to do this.
• We recommend carrying out this procedure before the start of daily work.
7.5.1 Trigger guard
The trigger can only be pressed if the trigger guard covering it is lifted.
7.5.2 Safety device
 6.1.1 Cutting torch body on page EN-11
7.6 Igniting the torch
NOTICE
• The plasma pilot arc is struck by high-frequency pulses when the trigger (on the manual
torch) is actuated and after a gas pre-flow time.
• When starting the initial arc (via the soft start device), the cutting nozzle must not touch the
workpiece.
• Contact between the cutting nozzle and the workpiece causes the soft start process to
malfunction.
• Use the accessories for an optimum cutting nozzle distance from the workpiece.
• The cutting arc is ignited on the workpiece. The cutting jet is interrupted when contact to
the workpiece is discontinued or the control voltage is interrupted using the trigger.
• Please observe the required gas post-flow time for cooling the torch.
To prevent inadvertent ignition, put down the cutting torch in such a way that the lever-type
trigger cannot be actuated.
