Maintenance can only be carried out on the unit if the person in charge of this
operation has the necessary technical qualifivations, knowledge and the correct tools,

1 Inspect the unit every 3 - 4 months (depending on how often the unit is used) and
use compressed air to remove any dust deposits, This must be carried out by a quali-
fied service agent.
CAUTION: Only use dry compressed air for cleaning.
Do not point jet of air at the electronic circuits.
2 Check the air filter regularly. Any condensate must be drained off immediately when
the compressed air supply is removed. To simplify this operation,
the plasma cutter should be disconnected from the compressed air supply unit
whenever it is left unused for more than 1 week.
