Hand torch cutting guidelines
Drag the torch tip lightly along the workpiece to maintain a steady cut.
While cutting, make sure that sparks exit from the bottom of the workpiece. The sparks should lag slightly behind the
torch as you cut (15 – 30° angle from vertical).
If sparks spray up from the workpiece, move the torch more slowly, or set the output current higher.
With either hand torch, hold the torch nozzle perpendicular to the workpiece so that the nozzle is at a 90° angle to the
cutting surface. Observe the cutting arc as the torch cuts.
If you fire the torch unnecessarily, you will shorten the life of the nozzle and electrode.
Pulling or dragging the torch along the cut is easier than pushing it.
For straight-line cuts, use a straight edge as a guide.
