    IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS Read all safety warnings and instructions.

SAFETY The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur.
  • Page 3 IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Remove keys or wrenches before connecting the tool to an air supply, power supply, or turning on the tool. A wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may cause personal injury. Check for damaged parts before each use.
  • Page 4 IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Make sure you are prepared to begin work before opening gas supply. ALWAYS use reverse-flow on the torch and regulator. This greatly reduces the possibility of mixing gases in the regulator or hose. Use with oxygen and acetylene only. DO NOT modify this torch or use it for a purpose for which it is not intended.

  • Page 5: Assembly And Operation

    ASSEMBLY AND OPERATION PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS ASSEMBLY AND OPERATING PROCEDURES NOTE: The following instructions are for acetylene gas use only. DO NOT use other fuel gases. 1. While standing on one side, “crack” each cylinder valve. “Cracking” is to quickly open and close the valve, allowing gas to escape and clearing the valve of any foreign material.
  • Page 6 ASSEMBLY AND OPERATION 3. IMPORTANT: The pressure adjusting screw (18) on the acetylene regulator and the pressure adjusting screw (A18) on the oxygen regulator should be turned counter-clockwise to relieve pressure on the regulator diaphragms before opening the cylinder valves. If this is not done, pressure form the cylinders may damage the diaphragms and render the regulators inoperable.

    CHECKING FOR LEAKS 1. After everything is connected, close both Torch Handle Valves, turning clockwise. Close Regulators, turning knobs counter-clockwise until loose. 2. Open the cylinder valves turning counter-clockwise only until the gas starts flowing. WARNING! Only open Acetylene Cylinder Valve 1/4 to 1/2 turn. 3.
