PP 205 won't cut

[ChadP]

The second time I've used my plasma and it won't cut. It starts the flame but every time I try to cut it goes out. As soon as I come close to the metal it stops, but in mid air it the flame is good. I put new consumables in the torch, checked the air pressure it is 60 while operating, checked the ground tried it on different amps.. Please help I need this to work!

Sure sounds like loose ground clamp problem, check connection inside machine.

The ground is tight, it stick and tig welds fine.

Which side is your torch in?

[ChadP]

It's in the negative side

Change out your consumables, and check for tightness. How many amps are you using?
