• Selecting compressed air
supply
Press the selector switch for the compressed
air supply 10 in order to select the com-
pressed air source.
In INT position (Figure J) the compressed

compressor. In EXT position (Figure K) by
an external compressor.
When using the integrated compressor,

switch the toggle switch for external

position (Figure L).
• Procedure when using an
external compressor
PLEASE NOTE!
For plasma cutting, a pressure of
4–4.5 bar is recommended. Adjust this
accordingly on your compressor. Please
bear in mind that the pressure can lower
while setting the air pressure. Thus, in
a hose length measuring 10 m and an
internal diameter of 9 mm it drops by
approx. 0.6 bar.
The compressed air source must have a fi lter
and regulator.
Connect the compressed air hose

the back of the plasma cutter
compressed air connection
insert the side of the compressed air hose
into the compressed air connection
the plasma cutter
connector (see Fig. I).
The pressure can be adjusted using the

pressure regulator on your compressor.
Select a pressure of 4–4.5 bar.

• Connecting the cutting torch

Insert the plasma burner plug

Insert the plasma burner power plug

into the plasma burner power socket
and tighten the union nut hand-tight
(see Fig. A+B).

• Connecting the ground cable

Connect the ground terminal plug
the ground terminal - connection socket
Make sure that the connecting shaft is fi rst
connected and then turned. The connecting
shaft must face upwards when plugging in
the ground cable plug
the connecting shaft must be rotated in a
clockwise direction until it reaches the stop,
in order to lock it in place (see Fig. A+B).
This does not require force!
