SECTION 4
Measure the flow rates using a new 200 amp nozzle (0558003798), a new electrode and a new heat shield. Make
sure that all parts are properly installed and that the torch o-ring (0558003721) is in good condition and not leaking.
Measure the flows individually if possible, if not measure the total.
Gas flow rates less than those above indicate a restriction or a leak in the gas plumbing of the torch or power source.
4.9 TROUBLESHOOTING CUT QUALITY
Data taken with Swirl Baffle (0558003583) and Shield Cup (0558003582).

* It is possible to go much faster, but 50 ipm (1270 mm/m) gives the best quality cut.
To ensure optimum cutting performance and
aid in troubleshooting any cut quality prob-
lems, please refer to the following cutting
parameters charts.
