CNC Controller, come with a Voltage Divider Printed Circuit Board that has to be installed inside the plasma power
supply to divide the high arc voltage down to lower levels for use with control circuits.
There is a space for mounting the V-D Board located on the upper portion of an internal vertical panel near the rear
ofthepowersupply.PredrilledholesformountingtheiHTV�Dboardaswellasanotherpopularheightcontrol

CAUTION
If using another board that doesn’t align with the existing holes, remove the panel if possible before drilling. If not
possible then every precaution must be taken to keep metal lings from being deposited inside the power supply.
