LIMITATIONS

Do not exceed output current and duty cycle rating of machine. Do not use the TOMAHAWK™ 625 for pipe thawing.

If the arc turns off while cutting using low input volt- age, that is below 208V, lower the air pressure by adjusting the regulator knob.

When using with the Outback 180, gouging is not rec- ommended.

1.Output Current Knob: Potentiometer used to set the output current used during cutting. Refer to the Technical Specification section for more infor- mation about the machine’s rated current range.

Air Purge: The Output Current Knob completely rotated counterclockwise enables the air purge function. A five minute timeout stops the purge function; this will occur only if the Output Current Knob remains in the purge mode for an extended time.

2.Power ON/OFF green LED: Illuminates when the machine is ON.

3.Output red LED: See the following table.

4.Thermal yellow LED: See the following table.

Part in place error: the retaining

 

 

cap is not properly Attached.

 

 

To restore the machine:

 

 

• Install the torch retaining cap

 

 

firmly in place.

 

 

• Wait for 5 seconds; during this

 

 

time the output and thermal

 

 

LED’s blinks alternately.

 

 

• After 5 seconds the machine is

 

 

automatically restored and ready

 

 

to operate.

The machine is overheated and

 

 

the output has been disabled.

 

 

This usually occurs when the duty

 

 

cycle of the machine has been

 

 

exceeded. Leave the machine On

 

 

to allow the internal components to

 

 

cool. When the thermal LED turns

 

 

off, normal operation is again pos-

 

 

sible.

Power undervoltage error: the

 

 

machine is disabled. When the

 

 

power returns to the correct range,

 

 

the machine will restart automati-

 

 

cally.

Low air pressure error.

 

 

To check / adjust the air pressure

 

 

(see recommended values in the

 

 

Technical Specifications of this

 

 

manual):

 

 

• Put the machine in Purge mode

 

 

[1].

 

 

• Check and adjust the air pres-

 

 

sure using the pressure gauge

 

 

and air pressure regulator knob

 

 

[6].

 

 

• If necessary, check and adjust

 

 

also the inlet air pressure by

 

 

adjusting the external compres-

 

 

sor.
