Job Packet / KickingHorse / P40

Packet use

Use this packet when the complaint involves no HF, HF but no OCV, air with no cut, pilot without transfer, or fan or switch-power drift.
Primary guide: P40 guide
Bench sheet: P40 bench test
Brand references: KickingHorse local reference manifest, KickingHorse fault-branch matrix

Item	Record
Serial or shop tag
Exact complaint
Start, pilot, transfer, or cut-quality complaint
Air source and pressure-under-flow condition
Clamp placement on arrival
Torch front-end condition
HF behavior on arrival
Any fan or power instability observed

Item	Why stage it early
Fresh SG55 front-end stack	fastest way to remove front-end false faults
Known-good clamp and clean steel coupon	transfer complaints stay return-path heavy
Dry air source or dryer path	wet air creates repeated false machine faults
Meter and insulated probes	needed for 24 V support and OCV checks

Use these after the bench evidence proves the complaint follows the torch front end or consumable stack.
Broad product and accessories entry: official P40 product page

If you see...	Stay in this branch first
No HF	HF gap, 24 V support, and torch condition branch
HF present but no OCV	control-board branch
Air flows but no cut	front-end stack, gas orifice, and clamp branch
Fan or control supply drifts badly	switch-power branch
