Important Notes
- Use welding goggles or a welding helmet when using this tool. It creates bright arcs that can damage your eyes.
- Use gloves when handling materials. Edges can be sharp, and recently cut metals will be hot.
- When pieces are cut free from the main material, they may shift and fall into the table, or they may tilt upwards and potentially collide with the nozzle as it moves. Stop the machine if it is at risk for colliding in this way.
- Check the manual for the plasma cutter to determine which nozzle and what settings to use for your material type and thickness.
- The water table needs to be changed every 1-2 weeks depending on usage.
- When draining, DO NOT allow metal particulate to go down the utility sink. Filter it out with a cheese cloth or scrap fabric and toss in the garbage.
