Plasma Newb - Just bought a used Cutmaster 75.

Post by LIVEBAIT68 »

Ok, I'm an old school CNC machinist programmer/CAD geek and I just got a used Cutmaster 75 from a local auction house. Condition: Unknown/Dusty. *see pics*. Should I just plug in 220 and air and clamp a piece of grounded sheet steel, and pull the trigger and see what happens?

That's a great old machine. They still use the same torch and consumables to this day. Ya, I would download the manual, check the input voltage, hook it up, make sure your consumables are in usable shape and give it a try. Let us know. Good luck.

Hope you get a late Christmas present, if it works then do a good clean up inside and out, check the filter on the air in. Buy some consumables and have fun. Who know you may need to built a table for it. :Wow
