Use the compatible torch card first. Consumables and replacement parts should be chosen from the torch or cartridge path, not guessed from the machine name alone.
Start with the consumable or cartridge path, then verify air quality, torch seating, ground clamp, and process settings.
Use the older Powermax support pages when the machine is not part of the current catalog family.
Use Find My Part for part numbers, cartridge numbers, torch names, or machine model searches.
