Do not bypass or try to defeat the safety interlock systems. Keep your head out of the fumes. Do not breathe the fumes. Use only torch(es) specified in Owner’s Manual. If inside, ventilate the area and/or use exhaust at the arc to remove cutting fumes and gases. Keep away from torch tip and pilot arc when trigger is pressed. If ventilation is poor, use an approved air-supplied respirator. Clamp work cable with good metal-to-metal contact to workpiece (not piece that will fall away)
