Installation

* For the best results, make sure that the cutting system is ready for use and the gases are flowing when you
select gas regulator settings, similar to testing gas preflow and cutflow.
1. Make sure that you have the correct supply gas hoses before you connect them. Hypertherm
recommends an internal diameter of at least 10 mm (0.375 inch) for supply-gas hoses that are
76 m (250 feet) or less.
2. Tighten all fittings to the torque specifications in Table 19 on page 118.
3. After installation is complete, pressurize the entire system and look for gas leaks. A licensed
plumber can do this for you.
