FORCECUT 62i Cutting Methods Different material thicknesses require different cutting techniques. Thin material: Start perpendicular to the work piece. It is unnecessary to angle or start on the edge, as the arc will pass through quickly. Medium material: Angle the torch tip to avoid damaging the tip. Once the arc passes through the material, you may begin cutting normally. Thick material: Drill a pilot hole through which to start your arc, or start on the edge of the work piece.
