Cartridge maintenance
To help keep a cartridge operating correctly, do the following. For information on cartridge life, refer
to Get the most out of your cartridges on page 107.
 Carefully remove molten metal that collects in
the castellations of drag-cutting cartridges. Do
not push the unwanted material inside the
nozzle or shield.
 Carefully remove molten metal that causes a
blockage of the holes in the shield that are
necessary for airflow. Do not push the
unwanted material inside the nozzle or
shield.
 Examine the O-ring on the torch body. If the
O-ring is cracked or worn, replace it. If the
O-ring is dry, or if it is not easy to install the
cartridge, apply a thin layer of silicone lubricant
on the O-ring and the threads. Make sure that the O-ring is shiny, but do not apply too much
lubricant.
