The retro kits should be plug in play to the existing air & electrical hookups.

Follow the instructions that come with the Duramax torch upgrade kit. Basically you open the cover on the side of the Powermax1000, unplug the air fitting, unplug the electrical connector....no tools required. Then reverse the procedure to install the new torch. The cut specs for the new torch (cut speeds, amperages, consumables etc.) will be quite different as compared to the old style torch....so be sure to open up the torch operators manual that is included on the CD that is packaged with the Duramax torch.
