Check the pressure regulator on the machine to make sure pressure is getting to the machine, failing that ensure the cutting head assy is set upcorrectly

You probably need to increase memory size and change spool option to direct one, also to disable in each installed software include acrobat reader auto update option; after you may enable some of them one per a time and see what happened
Hi:
I found similar problem with few customers and one issue (should I said the standard issue) is the source of air. You need a steady pressure and flow of air into the machine. Check your air compressor you will need at least 6 cubic feet per minute (360 cubic feet per hour) and a 90 psi of pressure. Since there is no way to check the flow (unless you have an online flow meter at you air pipe) check the pressure at your air tank (reservoir), if the pressure drops below the 70 PSI then that's the problem; your compressor can't stand the flow. Other than that check your ground clamp and make sure it's making a good contact.
Good Luck.
Gas light goes on when you have an air flow or pressure problem. Do you have enough pressure? you will need at least 120 psi at the compressor and 75psi at the plasma machine. Do you have enough flow? You will need 20 SCFH and a 30 gallon compressor reserve tank.
Try using fine sand paper and clean the tip of electrode and the thing that looks like thimble, another solution was don't tighten tip cover too much back off a little til you ge good contact. some units don't like to be clicked ON without making contact with working metal, you may get two or three clicks and then nothing til the air stops flowing.
It sounds like you have a problem in the power supply input area. Make sure your voltage select switch is in the correct location. Unplug the unit and switch back and forth between the two positions to clean the contacts. Try again. If still bad check you terminal lug connections on the input lead wires. If still bad please answer these questions.
Does the power indicator come on at all? Does the fan start?
instructions for shower door installations are very important to have,..i have installed over 100 of them and i still wouldn't attempt one without instructions,.your totally best to do the research it takes to get the instructions needed for this job,...there are certain cuts and measurements that are very dependent on specifications given by manufacturer to be right,....one wrong cut domino effects the whole job,....good luck
There are a few things about plasma cutting safety that are different from general welding safety tips
This short list of plasma cutter safety tips is geared toward light duty plasma cutting using compressed air not large industrial units that use gas mixtures and water cutting tables.
Electric Shock Can Kill
- Operating a plasma cutter completes an electric circuit between the torch and the workpiece. The workpiece and anything touching the workpiece are part of the electrical circuit.
- Never touch the torch body, workpiece or the water in a water table when the plasma system is operating.
Voltages & Currents
- Plasma cutter output voltages are much greater than welding voltages, usually 100-200 volts.
Precautionary Measures
- Do not pick up the workpiece, including the waste cutoff, while you cut. Leave the workpiece in place on the workbench with the work cable attached during the cutting process.
- During plasma cutting operations do not move the work clamp.
Wear insulated gloves and boots, and keep your body and clothing dry.
- Do not stand, sit or lie on or otherwise touch any wet surface when using the plasma cutter system.
- Insulate yourself from work and ground using dry insulating mats or covers big enough to prevent any physical contact with the work or ground. If you must work in or near a damp area, use extreme caution.
Work Cable
- Ensure metal-to-metal contact between work cable and workpiece or work table.
- Work cable clamp should make contact with clean metal free of rust, dirt, painted surfaces, etc.
- Do not attach work cable to the piece that will fall away when the cut is complete
Plasma cutter Arc Rays
Plasma cutter arc rays produce intense visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin.
Protective Clothing
- Guantlet gloves, safety shoes and hat.
- Flame-retardant clothing to cover all exposed areas.
- Cuffless trousers to prevent entry of sparks and slag.
- Remove combustibles, such as a butane lighter or matches, from your pockets before cutting.
Noise Levels of Plasma Arc Cutting
- Plasma arc cutting systems can generate noise levels in excess of 120 dB during high-amperage cutting operations.
- Ear protection should be used when operating or working near plasma arc cutting operations.
Toxic Fumes & Gases
Plasma arc cutting can produce toxic fumes and gases that deplete oxygen and cause serious injury.
- Keep the cutting area well ventilated or use an approved air-supplied respirator.
- Do not cut in locations near degreasing, cleaning or spraying operations. The vapors from certain chlorinated solvents decompose to form phosgene gas when exposed to ultraviolet radiation.
Pacemakers & Hearing Aids
- Pacemaker and hearing aid operation can be affected by magnetic fields from high currents. Pacemaker and hearing aid wearers should consult a doctor before going near any plasma arc cutting and gouging operations
Overall Plasma Safety
- The plasma arc cutting process can be very safe.
- By paying attention to safety standards and correctly setting up and operating the system, plasma arc cutting poses no more a threat than most welding processes.
