angle to the

and out the bottom when cutting.

DO NOT put pressure on shield when

drag cutting; instead, slide shield along

the surface for proper cutting results.

DO NOT start pilot arc without cutting or

gouging as this shortens the service life

of the nozzle and electrode.

Trigger

The pilot arc starts immediately

when trigger is pressed.

If sparks flare back from surface, this

usually is an indication that either travel

speed is too fast or amperage is set too low.

Pulling rather than pushing the torch

makes cutting easier. Use a proper guide

or template for accurate cutting operations.
