SERVICE
5.01 Introduction
This Section describes basic maintenance procedures per-
formable by operating personnel. No other adjustments
or repairs are to be attempted by other than properly
trained personnel.
WARNINGS
Disconnect primary power at the source before dis-
assembling any part of the cutting system.
Frequently review the Important Safety Precau-
tions (page 1). Be sure the operator is equipped with
proper gloves, clothing, eye and ear protection.
Make sure no part of the operator’s body comes into
contact with the workpiece while the cutting sys-
tem is activated.
CAUTION
Sparks from the cutting process can cause damage
to coated, painted, and other surfaces such as glass,
plastic and metal.
5.02 Routine Maintenance
The only routine maintenance required for the Gas Con-
trol components is a thorough cleaning and inspection,
with the frequency depending on the usage and the op-
erating environment.
To clean the Gas Control, first make sure that the power
is disconnected. Blow off any accumulated dirt and dust
with compressed air. The unit should also be wiped clean.
If necessary, solvents that are recommended for cleaning
electrical apparatus may be used.
