Plasma Cutting Safety Precautions
Setup and Use
1. Connect the earth ground as near as possible to the operating area. Earth connections
to structural parts of the building or other places distant to the operating area will
reduce their effectiveness and increase the danger of electric shock.
2. Do not pass equipment cables through or near lifting chains, crane cables, or any
electrical lines.
3. Besides grounding the workpiece with the Plasma Cutter Grounding Cable, an earth
grounding of the workpiece is recommended. Ground it directly to an earth pipe or
grounding rod with a separate cable of appropriate size.
4. Do not touch the electrode if you are in contact with the workpiece, ground, or another
electrode from a different machine.
5. Never use the Plasma Cutter near water. Ensure that the surrounding area and cutting
objects are dry. Do not spray water or other liquids on or near the Plasma Cutter.
6. Avoid all direct contact between the skin or wet garments and metal parts under
electrical power. Check that gloves and protective clothing are dry.
7. Always wear welding gloves and rubber soled shoes when working in damp areas, or
standing on metal objects.
8. Always turn off the Plasma Cutter when it is not in use, or in the event of a power
failure. Do not allow the Torch Head to touch earth ground. Accidental earth
discharges may cause overheating and fire hazards.
9. Do not leave the powered Plasma Cutter unattended.
10. Significant DC voltage exists after turning off and unplugging the unit. Discharge the
electrode to ground before handling.
