4. Setup

4.1. Żpakkjar u Verifika tal-Kontenut

Carefully unpack the plasma cutter and all accessories. Verify that all components listed below are present and undamaged:

• Thermal Dynamics® Cutmaster® 30+ Plasma Cutter
• SL60 1Torch
• Cutmaster Black Series consumables
• Korda tal-enerġija
• Xogħol clamp

4.2. Konnessjoni tal-Enerġija

Connect the unit to a suitable 110-240 V, 1 ph power supply. The Cutmaster 30+ features automatic voltage detection, which will adjust the internal settings to match the input voltage and set the maximum output amperage kif xieraq.

4.3. Air Supply Connection

Connect a clean, dry compressed air source to the plasma cutter's air inlet. The unit incorporates automatic air pressure detection, optimizing performance based on the available air supply.

4.4. Torch Connection

Securely connect the SL60 1Torch to the ATC torch connection port on the front panel of the plasma cutter. Ensure the connection is tight to prevent air leaks or electrical issues.

5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

5.1. Power On and Settings Adjustment

1. Turn on the plasma cutter using the main power switch. The 4.3-inch TFT LCD display will illuminate.
2. Use the glove-friendly adjustment knob to set the desired amperage for your cutting application. The display provides clear feedback on current settings.

5.2. Selecting Cutting Mode

Aqleb bejn Normali u Grade cutting modes as required for your specific material and cutting environment. Normal mode is typically used for solid materials, while Grate mode is suitable for cutting expanded metal or grates.

5.3. Torch Operation

• Funzjoni 2T/4T: Select the appropriate trigger mode based on your preference. In 2T (Two-Touch) mode, the arc starts when the trigger is pressed and stops when released. In 4T (Four-Touch) mode, the arc starts with a brief press and release, and stops with another brief press and release, allowing for longer cuts without continuously holding the trigger.
• Safety Trigger Lock: Always engage the safety trigger lock when the torch is not in use to prevent accidental arc initiation.
• Double-Tap Trigger: Utilize the double-tap feature on the torch trigger to conserve bottled air during operation, optimizing air usage.

5.4. Initiating a Cut

Kun żgur li x-xogħol ikun magħluqamp is securely attached to the workpiece to establish a good electrical connection. Position the torch at the starting point of your cut, ensure proper standoff distance, and initiate the arc using the torch trigger.

5.5. Post-Cut Air Purge

After completing a cut, the system automatically performs a post-cut air purge. This feature cools and cleans the torch consumables, significantly extending their operational life.

6. Manutenzjoni

6.1. Consumable Replacement

Regularly inspect the Cutmaster Black Series consumables (electrode, nozzle, shield cup) for wear. Replace worn consumables promptly to maintain optimal cutting performance and extend the overall life of the torch. Refer to the torch manual for specific replacement procedures.

6.2. Air System Maintenance

Ensure that the compressed air supply is consistently clean and dry. Moisture and contaminants in the air can negatively impact cutting performance and damage internal components of the plasma cutter. Periodically check and drain any moisture traps in your air supply system.
