Here are the details.
Brand newSpectrum 375 running off of 230 volts , 36 gallon compressor with water filter and Motor guard 26 filter. I have my switch set to 240 volts, I have air properly adjusted (60 psi while cutting). I can't get clean cuts even on 3/16ths using a standoff guide. I have to push down on the 3/16ths to get it to seperate after cutting and it is really hard to get 3/8ths plate to even sever. The dross is just rewelding back together at the bottom of the cut. I have tried varying cutting speed, power, and stand off. What am I doing wrong?
I have swapped all parts on the gun, i have tried 3 seperate tips, I have tried varying air pressure at the compressor and at the cutter. I have tried with and without standoffs, drag cutting. I cant cut any faster or the sparks blow back and it does not cut through. The only thing that I can think of is that it may be air flow for some reason. I am pushing through 50 ft of hose 1/4 to 1/4 with no quick connects to restrict flow. I dont know what else it could be.Help
