3.
Correct any values being displayed that differ from those recorded when testing your OMAX machine.
Change the “Abrasive Flow Rate” to the value you determined above (if calibration is not done, enter
0.3). Set the “Jewel (orifice) Diameter” to 0.010", the “Mixing Tube Diameter” to 0.021", and the “High
Pressure” to the value set for your pump:

Note:
The Low Pressure mode is not available when using the Mini-Maxjet4 nozzle - contact OMAX Technical
Support for additional information.

The tool offset for the Mini-MAXJET 5 nozzle should be determined after some test cuts are
completed. The value of 0.012"
may be used for the initial setup.
Dump Orifice Maintenance
The Dual On/Off Valve controls water flow through the cutting nozzle (Figure 4-72) and operates in
conjunction with a
dump orifice
(Figure 4-73) installed in the OMAX high-pressure pump.

®
5 Nozzle
When the nozzle is no longer cutting and the high-pressure water shuts off, the software automatically
re-routs this water through the pump’s dump orifice until the nozzle is again turned on and resumes
cutting. This action allows a continual pump operation during times when the nozzle is not cutting and
assures that the water pressure always remains the same, and the starting and stopping of the waterjet
stream takes place without delay. This technique also enables dual pressure operations, as required for
low-pressure glass piercing, for example, by opening both the dual on/off valve and the valve for the
dump orifice simultaneously.
