for a short period of time, in order to cool the torch. Do not switch
off the machine until the air has stopped flowing or damage may
occur to the torch.

CUTTING ARC WILL BE LOST BUT THE PILOT ARC WILL REMAIN IGNITED IN
THE NOZZLE UNTIL THE TORCH TRIGGER IS RELEASED.
WARNING: NEVER TOUCH THE NOZZLE WHILST THE PILOT ARC IS IGNITED
