While I still haven’t hooked mine up, I did call Primeweld today. You are right. The said this would not affect my warranty if I made direct raw voltage connections. They also said that “only about 6 customers have reported the issue” caused by going directly through the CNC port.
My question is, do I still use the wires that came with the unit if I connect directly to the raw voltage internally? They look like somewhere around 20 gauge wires. Is that okay for this application?
BTW, I am leaning towards using the CNC port because my Cut 60 is over 2 yrs old and I also read it is the more recently purchased units that are the source of the failures.
