I am not 100% sure but the spectrum 1000 is made by Hypertherm, you could follow the cut charts from the powermax 1000. It is a 60 amp machine.

The Hypertherm cut charts are spot on usually. I have never cut aluminum, so I can't offer much help here.

The torch is made by Hypertherm...but it is a bit different from the Powermax1000 torch...however the cut charts (under mechanized torch cutting) will get you in the ballpark.
