PIERCING WITH A HAND TORCH
NOTE:
Recommended maximum piercing capacity is 2mm. If you need
to make a cut on a metal sheet which has a sickness of more than
2mm without an edge start, make a hole ø 6mm using an electric
drill before you start cutting.
1. When piercing, tilt the torch
slightly so that blowback particles
blow away from the operator and
torch.
2. Complete the piercing off the
cutting line and then continue the
cut onto the line. Hold the torch
perpendicular to the workpiece
after the cut is complete.
3. Clean spatter and scale from the
shield cup and the tip as soon as
possible. Spraying or dipping the
shield cup in anti-spatter
compound will minimize the amount of scale which adheres to it
CAUTION: SPARKS FROM THE CUTTING PROCESS CAN CAUSE DAMAGE
TO COATED, PAINTED, AND OTHER SURFACES SUCH AS GLASS, PLASTIC
AND METAL
NOTE:
Handle torch leads with care and protect them from damage.
