CAUTION

15. Reconnect electricity to Precision Plasma Power

Source.

16. Turn power on.

17. Adjust coolant pump valve clock-wise to

increase coolant pressure to 115 PSI.

18. Check for leaks at hose connections.

19. Turn power off to Precision Plasma Power

Source.

20. Replace nut on coolant pump.

Note: Check the pump screen filter

located under the large nut and clean if

required.

21. Replace right side panel of Power Source

22. Check coolant level and add if necessary.

Commercial Antifreeze/Coolant Will Cause

Torch To Malfunction

Use Special Torch Coolant! P/N 156N05

Due to high electrical conductivity, DO NOT

use tap water or commercial antifreeze for

torch cooling. A specially formulated torch

coolant is REQUIRED. This coolant also

protects for freezing to -34° C.

Operating unit without coolant will cause

permanent damage to the coolant pump.

23. Resume normal operations

Set to 115 PSI
