FineLine 200PC User’s Manual
will give the capacitors inside the unit time to discharge.
•
Never operate the FineLine system without all of the covers in place.
•
Preventive maintenance should be performed daily to avoid possible safety
hazards.
Fire Prevention
When using the FineLine 200PC system, it is necessary to exercise good
judgment. While cutting, the arc produces sparks that could cause a fire should
they fall on flammable material. Make sure that all flammable material, such as
paper, cloth, etc., is a suitable distance away from the cutting area. All
flammable liquids should be at least 40 feet away from the cutting area, preferably
stored in a metal cabinet. Plasma cutting should never be attempted on containers
that contain flammable materials. Make sure that fire extinguishers are readily
accessible in the cutting area.
Make sure that the cutting area is properly ventilated when using oxygen as a
cutting gas.
Explosion Prevention
The FineLine 200PC system uses compressed gases. Use proper techniques when
handling compressed gas cylinders and other compressed gas equipment.
Observe the following guidelines to protect against explosion:
•
Never operate the FineLine system in the presence of explosive gases or other
explosive materials.
•
Never cut pressurized cylinders or any closed container.
•
When using a water table and cutting aluminum under water or with water
touching the underside of the aluminum plate, hydrogen gas is produced. This
hydrogen gas may collect under the plate and explode during the cutting
process. Make sure the water table is properly aerated to help prevent the
accumulation of hydrogen gas.
•
Handle all gas cylinders in accordance with safety standards published by the
U.S. Compressed Gas Association (CGA), American Welding Society
(AWS), Canadian Standards Association (CSA), or other local or national
codes.
•
Compressed gas cylinders should be maintained properly. Never attempt to
use a cylinder that is leaking, cracked, or has other signs of physical damage.
•
All gas cylinders should be secured to a wall or rack to prevent accidental
knock over.
•
If a compressed gas cylinder is not being used, replace the protective valve
cover.
•
Never attempt to repair compressed gas cylinders.
•
Keep compressed gas cylinders away from intense heat, sparks, or flames.
