Need Help!- Cutmaster A60 power supply question

[cinderella]

I have a Cutmaster A60 and I just got the power cable and plug put on it since it comes without a plug. I had a 50amp 4 prong plug installed in my garage. Then on the plasma cutter I put on a 4 wire range cord (6 gauge wire). Its set up with black to L1, white to L2, and the red to L3. The jumper from L2 to L3 has been removed and the jumper from L1 to L4 is still in place. I'm no electrician, so I wanted to double check that I did this right. Appreciate any input.

Your A60 operators manual has details....and the Thermal Dynamics tech service department are very helpful as well!

That's where I found the instructions. I believe it is 3 phase right now and I thought residential homes can't handle that. Don't wanna cause sparks anywhere other than on my sheet metal.

Btw...you, Jim, are everywhere online supporting CNC even if its not your product. Pretty cool!

I just like melting things! Well, in a controlled manner using a plasma torch!
