Intake snapshot

Item	Record
Serial or shop tag
Exact complaint
Start, transfer, or cut-quality complaint
Air source and pressure-under-flow state
Clamp placement on arrival
Torch front-end condition
Guide or stand-off hardware in use

Likely parts and accessories to stage

Item	Why stage it early
Fresh CB50 front-end stack	fastest way to remove front-end false faults
Dry air source	needed to separate hose and valve problems from machine faults
Known-good clamp and clean steel coupon	transfer complaints stay return-path heavy
Guide hardware only if the complaint involves tracking	helps separate guide faults from torch faults

Official parts-entry shortcuts

Use these after the diagnosis proves the fault follows the torch, guide, or air branch.

First branch decisions

If you see...	Stay in this branch first
Start complaint with bad air routing	hose, valve, and air branch
Transfer complaint only on dirty work or weak clamp	work-return branch
Tracking complaint with guide hardware fitted	guide and stand-off branch
Freehand cut is healthy but guided cut is not	guide, stand-off, or tip-hardware branch
Stable air but no useful output	control or power branch after external proving
