    SECTION 1 − SAFETY PRECAUTIONS - READ BEFORE USING OXY FUEL 2022-01 Protect yourself and others from injury — read, follow, and save these important safety precautions and operating in- structions. 1-1. Symbol Usage DANGER! − Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
  • Page 4 In this document, the phrase “welding and cutting” also refers to oth- er oxy-fuel operations like brazing and heating. READ INSTRUCTIONS. Read and follow all labels and the Owner’s Manual carefully be- fore installing, operating, or servicing equipment. Read the safety information at the beginning of the manual and in each section.
  • Page 5 BUILDUP OF GAS can injure or kill. Shut off compressed gas supply when not in use. Always ventilate confined spaces or use approved air-supplied respirator. LIGHT RAYS can burn eyes and skin. Light rays from the welding and cutting process produce intense visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays that can burn eyes and skin.
  • Page 6 A flashback arrestor can be installed on the torch handle instead of a check valve. Miller flashback arrestors have a reverse flow check valve and prevent the propagation of a flame up- stream.
  • Page 7 Remove all flammables within 35 ft (10.7 m) of the welding or cut- ting operation. If this is not possible, tightly cover them with ap- proved covers. Do not weld or cut where flying sparks can strike flammable material. Protect yourself and others from flying sparks and hot metal. Be alert that welding and cutting sparks and hot materials from welding and cutting can easily go through small cracks and open- ings to adjacent areas.
  • Page 8: California Proposition 65 Warnings

    Do not modify or repair cylinders or valves. Store leaking acetylene cylinders outdoors in a safe area. Identify leaking cylinders and re- turn them to the supplier. Dispose of used disposable cylinders according to the manufactur- er’s recommendations. Do not throw cylinders in fire. Follow instructions provided by the gas supplier and on com- pressed gas cylinders, associated equipment, and in Compressed Gas Association (CGA) publication P-1 listed in Safety Standards.

Cet équipement doit être utilisé dans le respect de toutes les réglementations fédérales, provinciales et munici- pales, ainsi que celles du Ministère des Transports et de l’as- sociation CGA (Compressed Gas Association).
  • Page 11 LES FUMÉES ET LES GAZ peuvent être dangereux. Le soudage et le coupage produisent des vapeurs et des gaz. Respirer ces fumées et ces gaz peut être dangereux pour votre santé. Garder la tête à l’extérieur des vapeurs et des fumées et ne pas les respirer.
  • Page 12 LES RAYONS DE L’ARC peuvent provoquer des brûlures dans les yeux et sur la peau. Les rayons d’arc issus des procédés de soudage et de coupage produisent des rayons visibles et invisibles intenses (ultraviolets et infrarouges) qui peuvent entraîner des brûlures aux yeux et à la peau. Des étincelles sont projetées pendant le soudage.
  • Page 13 Un intercepteur de rentrée de flamme peut être installé sur la poignée de la torche au lieu d’un clapet anti−retour. Les pare−flashback Miller ont un clapet anti−retour d’écoulement inverse et empêchent la pro- pagation d’une flamme en amont. Si un intercepteur de rentrée de flamme est installé, un clapet anti−retour n’est pas requis.
  • Page 14 Utiliser uniquement les gaz recommandés par le fabricant de l’équipement d’oxycoupage utilisé. Ne jamais allumer une torche avec des allumettes ou un briquet. Toujours utiliser un dispositif à friction. Ne pas utiliser de l’acétylène au−dessus de 15 psi (103 kPa). Il est acceptable d’utiliser des régulateurs d’acétylène qui indiquent une pression statique allant jusqu’à...

  • Page 17: Section 3 − Introduction

    SECTION 3 − INTRODUCTION Inspect all equipment before use. Do not use damaged, defect- ive, or improperly adjusted welding and cutting equipment. Make sure levers and valves work properly, threads on equip- ment are clean (no grease or oil) and not deformed, gauges are intact and easy to read, regulator is clean and free of oil or dirt, and fittings are properly sized for the cylinder.
  • Page 18: Repairs/Replacement Of Hose

    Use only compressed gas cylinders that are approved by the Depart- ment of Transportation (DOT) with this equipment. The torch will operate on cylinders that are available from Miller or from your local welding sup- ply dealer. 5-1. Industrial-Type Cylinder Information Industrial acetylene cylinders are pressurized to approximately 250 psig (1,724 kPa).
  • Page 19: Installing Hose

    Do not splice or use damaged hose. Use only the hoses that are supplied by Miller. These hoses trans- port low-pressure gases from the regulator to the torch tips. The hose is color coded (red) for fuel gas.
  • Page 20: Selecting And Installing A Tip

    Do not stand in front of or behind the regulator when opening the cylinder valve. Never open a cylinder valve suddenly as this can damage a regulator. With the system pressurized and the torch valve closed, check every connection and joint from the cylinder valve to the torch tip with an ap- proved leak detection solution (Figure 2).
